And I would like to point out that I use Comodo CIS every day on my PC, I’m a fan.
But, never, without Webroot and Malwarebytes.
Never !
Without them with him, I would have already lost a lot of data!
I agree with you that CIS is not software for the average user.
It allows fine-tuning of parameters, which requires technical involvement.
Not being a geek, it takes me several months to get the hang of it.
There are less technical software packages available, but I don’t think they offer the same level of protection.
Comodo CIS is a bit like a very active and very voluntary nightclub security guard.
He wants to be very loyal and tries to do his best to gain the sympathy of the nightclub owner.
But when after work, the head of security asks him: “did you do that?” “Have you thought about checking that out”, “do you know that there are people who come in through the window disguising themselves as security guards?”… CIS, as super-club guard, blushes a little and feels all guilty…
He’s our favorite goalkeeper… He knows the box well! But he’s old now.
We like it a lot, even if it is outdated on certain points.
We know that if he doesn’t go to the clinic quickly enough, he will have to go join his friends Esafe Protect and Agnitum Oupost Pro at the retirement home.
We would really like it to get a makeover, but we can see with the “2024” version that putting young people’s clothes on an old person won’t work for long.
We tell ourselves that they know this at Comodo and that they will soon bring him bionic arms so that he can get back on track…
We hope…
We hope…
Hope is beautiful…
Why not also renovate Comodo Backup?
This software was great and worked very well. (at least, at home at the time, yes)
A little facelift, the correction of a few bugs and then the integration with CIS Pro would have given added value to it…
In particular by integrating a pro-active anti-ransonware and malware backup system to be able to carry out immediate recovery.
Comodo Program Manager did its job well too. Why not wear it a little longer? It could have become a great PUA PUP software uninstaller.
It seems that the software part for the general public is only a thing of the past at Comodo…
It’s good to have chosen xcitaium, but when you look at the results
s tests or at Virustotal.com, Xcitium is at the bottom… it goes completely unnoticed. The desire to be forgotten?
We have known for a long time that “A” brands are cited first in this area…
Brief…
Unfortunately, I’ve already experienced this with other software that I really liked…
it smells scorched…

I write this again and again because such statements are not generally valid:
Then I (my PC) should be dead long ago. In the many, many years I’ve been using Comodo, I’ve never had any viruses, rootkits, etc. It runs almost without any problems on all the computers I’ve installed it on, so I’ve never had to ask for help or search. My sensitive data, connections, are excellently protected.
I also use Malwarebytes and had to delete it today. But I don’t think I’ll use it anymore. When I scan with Hitman pro, malwarebytes, adware cleaner, no malware has ever been found. Only recently did Kaspersky’s KVRT find a Tojaner (but don’t know if it really was one). However, I uninstalled Comodo and briefly deactivated the firewall.

Yes it is. Luckily I had someone who taught me a little bit about Comodo… It is not easy when English is the foreign language and you are not well versed in it. The manual is already very extensive.
Please watch this.
Stuff like vulnerability scanner, content filtering, url filtering etc are all about trying to identify the “delivery” mechanism.
Delivery vs Payload.
Comodo is the only company where Payload cannot execute with full access (it runs in containment).
This is the protection!
Doesn’t matter which delivery mechanism is used, Payload is contained with Comodo.
The only argument is: Phishing protection, its more of a user thing imo… Simply do NOT enter your private data to a website if you went there from clicking to a link.

I have just tested Zonealarm Nextgen … It is true that he does not arrive at the ankle of Comodo Cis Pro 2024.
By cons … he found me 45 viruses that Comodo had not seen …
Another thing too is that the system is much more fluid with the last zone alarm. I will test Comodo Cis with Windows 11 to see if it’s more pleasant than under Windows 10.
Another info, Alarm zone has no problem with malwarebytes and webroot.
For the rest, everything is worse than Cis …

Thank you very much for the Melih video.
I know that XCitium professional products are very good and at the top of the top.
But, they are also more recent.
Comodo Cis would need to be, in part, rewritten to above all gain fluidity.
Hello Prodex!
Unfortunately, Kaspersky makes very few false positives. So, if he found a trojan, it’s almost certain that there was one.
But probably this should have requested a connection which it would have been possible to refuse with CIS.
The problem is that if you get distracted and don’t check carefully to see if a Trojan has the same name as a legitimate program, you might say “yes.”
Logically, the evaluation scan should have given it a poor score, right?

why are you still thinking “detection”?

You must have missed it. I had briefly deactivated the cis firewall and had a connection to the Internet. And once I uninstalled cis, even with an Internet connection (but only for less or more minutes and not for days). However, I had activated the defender. So my PC was not protected by comodo for a shorter or slightly longer period of time. I didn’t do a scan for malware with comodo.
That was definitely not the case. Also, my PC, maybe you missed that, was without comodo protection for a more or less long time. With cis I had not scanned.
Conclusion: This would not have happened with Comodo activated - as I have been used to and experienced with Comodo.
Edit: What I want to say: It was about uninstalling cis 8012 and installing cis 8088, not about trying out or installing any other software.
KVRT just finished scanning: no threats found
A question: Before judging, have you ever tried the Cruelsister configuration?

I ask myself, what am I doing wrong with CIS, because I can’t find any malware on my PC, CIS runs smoothly, and despite better reviews of other protection programs in comparisons on the Internet, CIS has so far protected my PC from ransomware, trojans, backdoors, fraud through phishing emails, worms. This is starting to worry me when I read that cis out of 10 points only scores 6.5 points or even less. CIS blocks complex threats only up to 96% - industry standard is 100% what others achieve (in a comparison). What am I doing wrong? I would also like hackers to plunder my account so that cis can finally show that it is not able to securely protect (my) PC. 
Xcitium scores an 10/10 i have tested Xcitium vs all sort of stuff and it did an excellent job.
Signatures:8.5/10
Auto-Containment+VirusScope(Static and Dynamic Behavioral Analysis):10/10
Xcitium Verdict Cloud(Valkyrie):10/10
HIPS:10/10
Website Filtering:7.5/10
But not for home users.
i will test Xcitium for home and get right back with the results
xcitium is for business - comodo for home user
yes but everything is Xcitium now so i call Comodo Xcitium for all products anyways i will test Xcitium for home users and see if its verry good as Xcitium AEP or worser the test includes:
Test of Phishing Sites
Test of Malicious Sites
Detection rate test
Left over samples test
My comment above is of course meant ironically.
