Re: Cloud AV

Re: Cloud AV

Knew about it ages ago, Its not like they are not already doing it in there 2009 version

 

Re: Cloud AV

Hi simisg,
Scanning on demand slow? maybe the first time, but try again the same analysis.

 

Re: Cloud AV

Re: Cloud AV

AFter the beta completes, the free version will have (not stated what) "less" security

 

Re: Cloud AV

The new part is that it is and will be a FREE service.

And Yes, the 2009 Panda Products are Cloud-Based. In the 2009 paid products, Panda calls it Collective Intelligence.

 

Re: Cloud AV

It works like Prevx, am I right?

 

Re: Cloud AV

it looks like yes

 

Re: Cloud AV

ance, I thought the same, but so we don't have any A v B, things might just have to focus on Panda.

I used their web based activescan awhile ago, was quite a good scanner, picked-up a few threats on the work machine.

Those who have liked Panda previously, and its detection rates, but disliked the resource usage, this should suit a fair few.

Pretty slick/basic GUI.

 

Re: Cloud AV

What can I say?

Not a peep at installing/running this rogue.

 

Re: Cloud AV

Those rogues, not defending 'panda', but they get past most AVs. Unfortunately.

 

Re: Cloud AV

i tried with 5 trojans and Panda is very quiet and trojans are running happy

 

Re: Cloud AV

Hi Dr33,
have you configured the connection settings properly?

 

Re: Cloud AV

i think so since i do not use a proxy and my firewall allow panda full

 

Re: Cloud AV

umm don't know what can be happening , on my own tests it detected almost all of my malware samples

 

Re: Cloud AV

maybe my samples are too new

 

Re: Cloud AV

.
Is this "on demand" or real-time? I would actually prefer it be "on-demand" or possible to configure that way.

 

Re: Cloud AV

So, this thing also has a on-access scanner or is it meant only for on-demand scanning?

 

Re: Cloud AV

You will be notified in six hours or so (after the in the cloud analysis is completed), chances are you won't be able to connect to AV sites

 

Re: Cloud AV

My concern is that if this indeed IS a cloud-based product, even if the malware is completely new, it should block it automatically just because of that - if it's of dangerous origin.


Resource usage and any conflicts when having other Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware products running?

 

Re: Cloud AV

Wonder why they've not changed that in their ONLINE help in that case...
