Nope, that is not marketing talk, I am being realistic in stating that independent tests have shown that MSE only offers basic protection and that...
Valid argument. MSE is lightweight and fine if you know what you're doing.
Unfortunately security testing is something that cannot be done by many computer scientists. Even if a programmer knows what a piece of code is...
Here are some tests of AV-Test: https://www.av-test.org/en/antivirus/home-windows/windows-7/april-2015/ Almost all vendors almost always provide...
The level of protection offered by MSE has always been 'basic' and I do not think that anything will change this very soon. The level of...
Doesn't matter, AV will always just stay one layer of defence. If you want better protection then look at a complete system lockdown and an...
Block it with a firewall. Afaik there is no way to disable automatic updating in Alert itself. But why would you want to disable automatic updating?
I am having an issue with Alert and I am curious whether someone else has experienced the same thing. Since a few months I have troubles with...
Blocking exploits is not about blocking/preventing the vulnerability being exploited, but about blocking the used exploitation techniques....
1. The licensing model of HitmanPro has been the same for the past years. (30 day trial) 2. Regarding HitmanPro.Alert: You get HMPA for free if...
You can't, merely a user.
If you want a free product you can always start your own development project ;) In that case it becomes clear how much time it sometimes take to...
HMPA should be compatible with Win10, although I have to say that I am not that worried about 64-bit Edge or Chrome being exploited on Windows 10...
Emsisoft Internet Security Actually the majority of the people will only look at the price ;) BTW, If you don't want any possibility for...
They claim to have "Dynamic Exploit Detection", but I am still curious whether they have managed to build solid anti-exploit functionality. It is...
With your own logic: you're just not putting enough effort into finding the meaning of 'most', let me help you with that:...
You're not getting the point, running without admin rights does not impact most exploits. And in the case of the definition of 'to mitigate' with...
To begin with, this report is about vulnerabilities/exploits and not about malware, but thanks for the link, I have plenty of criticism on this...
All flash exploits written by vitaly are exactly the same besides the vulnerability trigger of course. iirc they should still be blocked by all...
Or just use a scanner which detects new executable files and determine manually whether a file is legit or not. Only once I have had problems...
I think it's a bit naive to only focus on two families of malware. 1. Government agencies can choose from more backdoors then only FinFisher and...
Do you have a (recent) source claiming that percentage? Personally I expect that quite a bit of malware does not require admin privileges.
I will tell you a secret RCS and FinFisher are just like any other malware and by no way as complex as projects like Stuxnet, Careto, Regin,...
If you want to protect purely against exploits, choose HMPA or MBAE. If you want a relative easy to use anti-executable, choose AppGuard. I will...
1. afaik HMPA only scans executables and not other files like data files. 2. You can scan a folder / file by right clicking on one in Windows...
