AppDefend & ProcessGuard

Hello,

I have ProcessGuard, noticed that DiamondCS had referred CrytpoSuite to GhostSecurity website. For those of us not in the know: what is the difference between AppDefend and ProcessGuard?

Thanks,
JB

 

The below thread has a good explanation to your question.

AD versus PG - Which offers more protection at the moment ?

Some of the core difference are:

PG block first, if something stop working then you can allow
AD ask on each action... more control but can be anoying at first.

Things monitored are not the sames (and there will be even more difference in the next release such as more network filtering features)

Background implementation are not the same. Jason should release a benchmark to show wich product use what ressource. AD is beleived to be more ressource efficient.

Next version of AD will protect you even before you login.



The reason there is a link between the two compagny is that Jason was one a lead devlopper of DCS then started his own compagny. The more time pass, you'll see that the two product will get more and more different.
