Crystal Security - Discussion

Well I tested it and it still needs work. It still let malwares through, although warning popped up and auto-decided and even with removing option checked. I ran a scan and still malwares left. The proactive part still needs more work to be more robust and be able to clean and remove better. Also a better detection is needed.

MBMA detected 14 threats

 

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback.

I agree with you that Crystal Security needs a better detection. As already mentioned in changelog..Internal database is currently experimental feature and will be fully integrated in the future (next BETA cycle).
It means that bigger database with automatic updates function will be added. Also it is optional to use Internal database.

great to hear it. Hopefully it happens soon. I am looking for something as robust as secureaplus but without its compatibility and other issues. If crystal security can reach the level of secureaplus, then its a defiantly better apps, since I do not have any issues with it as I had with secureaplus.

 

Hi,

Thank you for your interest and support!
I'll do my best to improve Crystal Security (detection, usability, performance...).

Thanks Kardo. Changed to present version, seems to be fine so far.

I can't seem to find any potions regarding internal database.

Thanks for the information!

Any eta on my previous suggestions ?

 

Hi,

Your suggestions

1. A real-time search filter for overview, white list and blacklist tabs.
2. Detailed status for uploads (i.e. example.exe , 3 mb/14 mb, eta 10 mins).
3. Tab for unknowns waiting for analysis.
4. Offline database - optional.

I'll try to implement all your suggestions (next Beta cycle).

Currently I can't tell the exact ETA date.. sorry about that. I can tell that next version will be "Stable".
I'll make some changes in update process.

Kardo

 

Hi Kardo,
Maybe I was premature, seems I may have found one bug in the .Net framework. CS failed to connect to Virus total.

 

Hi Gordon,

Thank you for your report.
I'll try to reproduce it. Hopefully will be fixed with next version.

Regards,
Kardo

 

Thx Kardo. Keep up the good work.

 

Thanks Kardo.

Regards Gordon

 

With thanks to Kardo and a bit of detective work this end, it appears that the above problem I was getting was due to a possible corrupted Firewall rule, once deleted and redone everything at the moment seems to be working fine.
So thanks and apologies to Kardo, the problem was at this end and not within his App.

 

Gordon,

Great to hear that everything is fine!
PS. Thanks for the PM.

Kardo

Hi,

Preview screenshots of next BETA cycle.

1. User interface



2. Notification



Please tell me your thoughts about new design.

Regards,
Kardo

 

For Threat level=0, maybe better description would be None, instead of Very low.

 

Can CS quarantine things? Also can we see details of other tabs like uploads,etc.?

 

Looks very nice, BTW, can CS stop applications from running while analyzing ?

 

Good suggestion. Thanks!

Regards,
Kardo

 

Yeah, "Block" actually means "Quarantine".
Maybe I should rename Block to Quarantine or change description text a little bit.
I'll try to bring more screenshots very soon and all your great suggestions will be implemented.

Regards,
Kardo

 

Thank your for your feedback! I am glad you like it.

Currently Crystal Security detects already started applications (processes).
Program identifies and analyzes the new processes quickly.
