Yes, as part of a layered security strategy it will still have its uses for some time to come. Nice one Regards Eck
If even the impression arises that security software is no longer supported, it will be uninstalled immediately. Security software that is no longer supported only creates a false sense of security.
so if you disallow WVSX to connect (to prevent it being shut down for instance), will the "enable network protection" (www filtering) still work or it needs Internet? Seams logical that it would so you only benefit from a local (outdated) AV
WVSX AI works locally, no Internet needed. WebProtect still works. Just tested. WVSX blocked direct disk access and outgoing traffic. I've only AppUpdate blocked, by inserting an non valid proxy.
Regarding this post, the site was under maintenance: https://malwaretips.com/threads/wisevector-free-ai-driven-security.87965/post-1028169 but when I checked it yesterday, it was totally gone... R.I.P. https://i.ibb.co/zHvLCFZ/Image-440.png
Still persevering with this software, and because I know what I am doing, I overrode this warning by WVSX.
@EASTER You're welcome. P.S. But, judging from some other comments here, and at MalwareTips, it has become noticeable that Wisevector/WVSX has become not so welcome.
It found some stuff regarding cuda, nvd3dum.dll, I put this file on hybrid-anlysis and nvd3dum.dll uses lolbins for some reason, either because of poor lazy programming or because it is a lolbin, so I removed the file and all works despite this , WVSX detects evasive maneuvres (like Lolbins) as malware and stuff that puts hooks onto processes to modify them
That's one of the benefits which on this end is used as a reliable compliment to the Granite Shield that i combo with Third Party Security.
So is Secure Folders @Rasheed187 - Yet is still functions reliably. However this WVSX is a sort of AV/Behavoral Blocker which DID have a fairly strong apprehension rate.
Same- Quite formidable AS-IS. I have to malware myself to see it perform because frankly nothing can penetrate the manner in which i set up multiple security walls. So its a useful compliment until such time it;s not.
I kept getting FP's on my mom's laptop, some type of trojan.tmp file. I did multiple scans with secondary scanners, nothing came up. I just uninstalled it..
I had it as a secondary scanner but uninstalled it entirely as soon as it was clear consumer version wouldn't be developed further. What's the saying... it you're getting something for free then you're the product?! No thanks.
