Default Webroot SecureAnywhere

Quick search on Wilder with not much useful information. Which Engine is it based on? Any reviews?

Webroot bought Prevx so Prevx is the main basis for their engine. The engine is their own in house using qualities from both the Prevx and Webroot engines (heavily based on Prevx technologies).

It used to be Sophos prior to the purchase of Prevx.
