FYI:

Prior general discussion of NeuSheild starts here (bottom of page) and continues-on for several pages:

Hello Peter

Yes, I understand, but I thought a newcomer to our NeuShield discussion might otherwise miss-out on and would benefit from the info in the general thread which is likely to get buried over time.

In any event, feel free to delete my post if you think its inappropriate/confusing.

 

Hey Pete,

Is this a new ransomware blocker? If so I may be interested.

 

I think it's not so much a blocker, but rather a simple means of preserving and quickly recovering data/files/programs that have been encrypted/wiped by ransomware or other nefarious method.

How To Remotely Recover From Ransomware.....

Has nothing to do with ransomware blocking per se. It's a file recover utility that allow you to in essence roll back file status to a prior period of time. In the case of a ransomware attack, this would be to a time prior to when the attack occurred.

What will make or break this product is ransomware ability to detect and disable it.

 

Does programs like this rely on system restore? Or does it have it's own "restore" option?

 

Follow the link to go to their product page, tells you everything you need to know.

sounds like the ransomware protection from acronis. but who really need this? isnt daily backup for important files essential/vital? is an Independent backup solution more recommended that windows system restore*? (*which will become deprecated because it is not stable and reliable enough!)

 

Interesting.

A dedicated Ransomware product IMO say similar to a (RansomOff) would or should be equipped with formidable up front defenses to meet and take the ransomware on directly thru instant detection and combat in a heads up confrontation once a drop in is been made by the bad actor riding in on the bandwidth.

You might think it of choice in confidence and safety to apply a backup image on any AFTER THE FACT hit from ransomware, again just IMHO

 

sounds like rollback rx to me. is it?

 

It is what i was asking. But seems a bit different since it writes on the partitions instead of creating a hidden one.

 

if that's the case, it's better. because the hidden partition and mbr modification are what make rx prone to cause isses.

 

So @Peter2150 does it revert system crashes, data corruptions/deletions and other drivers/files/programs installed?

 

thanks. will give it a try soon as i get the chance.
