One of the biggest vulnerabilities is BO attacks.... Not only don't AVs catch the latest malware they do not know, they do not prevent BO attacks either...
I would say: CIS security today is simply unmatched! Our protection is much more effective than other IS products.
Detection ratio is meaningless (as i have written before) and the only thing it means the %age it doesn't catch causes Infection! So 95% detection means the remaining 5% will cause infection! And if you look at the
Virus Total Statistics where it says
Failures in Detection (Last 24 Hours) You will see that the failure to detect is huge. What that means is: Current AV products allow infections.
As far as I know, there is no malware I know of (of course nothing is 100% and noone can predict tomorrow etc etc) that could bypass CIS. Now, thats protection! Unlike AV's who can't detect majority of new malware and allow the users to be infected, CIS prevents that in the first place.
So our open challange to anyone who claims their AV is better than CIS: Please allow us to give you some fresh malware and you run them on your machine and lets see what happens
Afterall, isn't that what matters, real protection in real time!
Anyway, the point is: CIS has now achieved an amazing balance of top notch security (noone can compare the protection that CIS provides to any AVs out there, period) and usability. If anyone is willing to challange, please come forward and allow me to provide you some fresh malware and lets see if u get infected or not! The detection tests should be renamed and called
Infection Tests. Testing against 1M malware and finding that it detects 95% means there are 50,000 malware that can simply infect you! And that is with one simple sample list that some tester has and whats in the wild is naturally a lot more!
The power of CIS comes from using both HIPS (D+) and AV together but not just together but architected to work together. A malware, if recognised, doesn't receive an alert from D+, if not D+ will alert. Now compare this to an AV product, where if it doesn't recognise the malware, it will simply allow infection!
Its about time we had some serious protection. The way that AV companies try to protect themselves is like a dog chasing its own tail! Its about time that a malware that can infect you has to be an exception and not the norm!
CIS is without a doubt the best protection for users today!
Maybe I should build a system whereby I can test the major AV players with real malware on daily basis and see how they fair compared to CIS.. Lets see if they allow infection or not
Not like the child's play rubbish that some so called testing websites do by simply running on demand scanning on a folder... Time to seperate the boys from men.. Time to let real malware attack these security applications in real time in a real computer and see the results and let people see it! Lets see how well AV's protect you
