The new Emsisoft beta 2025.5 released, about two weeks ago. Here's a snip; This release includes a Syscall Detection feature. This feature monitors system calls—low-level commands that programs use to interact with Windows. By keeping an eye on this activity, we can spot suspicious behavior earlier and more accurately, even if the threat doesn’t leave traditional traces or tries to evade detection. According to Palo Alto Networks Kernel mode Direct syscalls is one way to bypass EDR solutions(lumma for example). I've been using the latest beta, and when i tested it against malwares that particularly uses syscall evasion, Emsisoft BB performed well. Switch to BETA channel, if you want to test the new BB feature of Emsi.
I've switched just now. The one thing I dislike is using debug logging. In order to delete the logs, which can grow rapidly, you have to turn off Emsi protection which protects them from manipulation I guess.
What i do, loggin.Do not log everything aka all components. Im only loggin fileguard and BB. Mebbe there's a log limit that automagically deletes itself when reached 20mb? Anyways, im quite impressed about this new beta BB improvements. Such a bunch of guys and gals still working and updating the software, without Fabian "Fabulous" Wosar. If you want to go paranoid, go with trend micro in hypersentive mode and with Cyberlock. Kinda dual whitelisting mode. Nothing gets thru, nothing IF Dan strenhgents Cyberlock prosesses. This is vital.
Login? I have never logged in to Emsisoft Workspace Management, not even once (if that is what you mean)
@moredhelfinland Between trend micro in hypertensive mode and with Cyberlock. Just wondering which one of the software did you install first and would the order of the software matter? How long did you leave learning mode on with Cyberlock? Always the best, thank you for sharing your findings with information.
Shouldn't matter what order you install them in as I've never had a problem. Also, if I remember corrcetly I think Dan said to leave in Learning Mode for a week, personally I never put it in learning mode, if I get a pop up using a software on my computer I just allow and whitelist it as I know its all safe.
@digmor crusher you are correct about Dan,saying Learning Mode for a week,..... But 2 years ago, on the PC Security Channel: Best Virus Removal Tools: Cleaning a deeply infected system order was important, so I thoughts there maybe a conflict between the security software. And removal of Malware maybe a headache. Many thanks for your insight!
I'm also using Local Group Policy Editor to block .bat files systemwide by using system variables. Just make a simple software restriction policy: %systemdrive%\*\*.bat or %userprofile%\downloads\*.exe %AppData%\*.ps1 %LocalAppData%\*.vbs You can also use HiBit System Monitor to...monitor windows policy changes(and service, task scheduler etc). For some reason HiBIt System monitor does not autostart, so you have to add it to startup folder, somethin like this: win+R shell:startup and drag system monitor exe to the startup folder
