History and products

ThreatTrack was established in 1994 as Sunbelt Software Inc. to provide security solutions to the Windows user base. For the next decade, the company created programs for consumers, businesses and large enterprises, including its CounterSpy anti-spyware software, iHateSpam email security product and the CWSandbox (now ThreatAnalyzer) automated malware analysis sandbox.

In 2008, the company launched its VIPRE antivirus product line. VIPRE combined anti-malware and anti-spyware into a single, small-footprint antivirus solution designed to provide malware protection to users.[1]

Sunbelt Software was acquired by GFI Software Inc. in 2010, becoming the GFI Software Security Business Unit .[2] GFI Software announced plans to spin off its Security Business Unit in March 2013, when ThreatTrack began operations as an independent company.[3]
