Did anybody read the complete Wilders topic and could tell what their HIPS is about? How strong it is etc?

5

It is not released yet.

6

I haven’t understood that completely. Can you please tell me what does it mean for Comodo?

On what I understood so far, they will develop a new? program or a new tool inside the existing program where user will be able to send files directly to VT or CAMAS and also reuplaud them.

I asked kardokristal about valkyrie he said

"Hello,

Thank you for your interest.

Yes, it is possible, i found some critical bugs in uploading process to VirusTotal, that´s why I clicked Last Report in video.
These bugs will be fixed and in total you can upload files real-time to:

  1. VirusTotal -www.virustotal.com
  2. Comodo Valkyrie -http://valkyrie.comodo.com/
  3. CAMAS -http://camas.comodo.com/

Plus: Query all basic information about file:

  1. Age
  2. Extension
  3. Size
    …

And finally file check against online databases:

  1. Malc0de
  2. NictaTech
  3. Clean MX
  4. VX Vault

P.S: I will create new preview video as soon as virustotal upload bug is fixed.
Also Comodo Valkyrie server is working well now.

Kardo

I really like the idea behind this project and can’t wait to test it out.

The only addition I can currently think to request would be that you also add some sort of method to check whether the files are known to be safe. For example, in my article about How to Tell if a File is Malicious I first ask users to check to see if the file is in Comodo’s whitelist. That way, if it is the user does not have to consider any other steps or services. They know that if it was whitelisted by Comodo it must be safe.

I think adding something like that would be very good,

14

Hello,

Thank you for your suggestion!

Comodo File Intelligence is very good public service and if possible i´ll try to add it to Crystal X.

Kardo

Hi kardokristal,

Is CIMA actually valkyrie ?
You should rename it.
Anyway, thanks for this program which is going to be very amazing.

16

In fact Valkyrie = Comodo FVS (file verdict service) in your program it should be “FVS” or “Valkyrie”.

17

Hi,

You are welcome :wink:

I´ll rename CIMA to Valkyrie.

Regards,
Kardo

Hello Kkristal! Good to see you here. All the info sounds great! But I have some Q for you. Why is it free and why you created such product on the first place? What do you get from this?

19

Hello,

Thank you for your interest and questions.

The first question: why is it free is actually good one, but one of the reason is because the
version of C# Visual Studio I am using. There is some policies for some version of C# Visual Studio.

With one sentence this mean that selling is illegal because I don´t let´s say the Pro version of Visual Studio.
I am using freely available C# Visual Studio version.

Maybe I´ll plan to add some kind of donation option into website…

Now I´ll try to answer to your final question:

With such product development I learn a lot new things of security field and general development.
Also, I hope that this development help me to get some good and exciting official job (e.g in security field).

For me is computer security exciting :slight_smile: At the moment you can say that I am like hobby-programmer.

Finally, I hope you understand me, because my English is not excellent.

Regards,
Kardo
