Hello All,

I have asked Research and Development for a detailed explanation on this. I have also posted in the following thread: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=235280.

Thank you,
Richard

 

Bump, I get the feeling one of two things will happen.

1. It will be in the next build

2. It will be removed from "help" in the next build and pushed back to v5.

 

One Thing seems to be clear:
"Host-based Intrusion Prevention System — Unauthorized attempts to modify your OS or applications are actively blocked through a combination of advanced behavioral analysis and network filtering that monitor your system processes, files, and registry keys. HIPS protects against modern blended threats that may have bypassed your network perimeter security." ... As it is written on this page: http://www.eset.com/smartsecurity/, and if it even exists, is clearly a function of the BE edition, as you read the files for both Home End user edition and Business Edition, HIPS is described only for the BE, or at least that is what Eset is telling its customers.

 

@MasterTB
As with v3.0 , the BE installation file of both EAV and ESS is the same size like HE's . The onliest difference is that in BE one can place a LIC file and allow EAV/ESS start acting like a Mirror server thanks to ESET HTTP server . That is it.

 

Yes, I know, and you've said it before, that's why I'm so surprised -as is everybody else- to read about the inclusion of some sort of HIPS in ESS, ¡and maybe even limited to the BE edition! but specially more when no one seems to find it

 

back to the top

 

New build (well old now .417) and HIPS is still in the help files but not in the program, bump.

 

They (ESET) won't share any info - obvious and 100% guaranteed!

I am starting to think that it will be something like the Cisco plug-in . It was announced at the beginning (from the very first release) but appeared later . Perhaps ESET will integrate HIPS in future builds - one more reason to be so quiet.

 

HIPS even claimed in the documentation, section of the file protection. Fully integrated in the antivirus. Like checking e-mail.

Documentation: Home Computers
ESET Smart Security 4 - User Guide (Russian / EN)

In ESS4 many mistakes. Maybe with HIPS have any problems?!

Sorry I use the automatic translator.

 

Another build another bump.

 

Almost feels like they don't even want to address this Question

 

obviously,they dont want to answer this question.

 

I'm not denying that, but obviously, I'm not going to let it die

 

I laughed at the word "almost"

Still, silence is just as telling...especially with regards to customer perception.

 

Hello,

Thank you for your questions and interests in this. I have collected all posts and asked for answers to these questions. The following is in response to these:

Thank you,
Richard

 

thank you very much Mr.Rmuffler for explaining this matter
and I hope next version will have better HIPS

 

Thanks, good to hear, this is!


(something Yoda would say)

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

Thanks for taking 2 months to tell us that, forgive me if I don't believe you, because saying "HIPS" is a mixture of current modules is a load of crap. I'll believe it when I see the controls in the menu, if they ever come.
