This PE is hiding something in its "relocations" area, and we're not sure what.Now I'm curious - simply because an installer for, let's say a toolbar, doesn't sound like something identifiable by behaviour - so does Cylance use any kind of "definition files" or does it do that too based on behaviour?įollowing is Cylance Protect's report on why it blocked a particular toolbar application: However for the occasions when you want to run one of these programs (hence potentially), you can simply waive the file in the console allowing it to run either globally or on a specified ‘zone’ of systems. Hutchingsp - We classify them as PUPs (potentially unwanted programs) and block them by default in our product. Please let me know if you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer. The technology speaks for itself and the guys are Cylance are great people to work with. The reason you haven't heard much about Cylance is because it doesn't have the marketing $$ to overwhelm the incumbents who are on a slow death. The administration panel is very easy and intuitive to use, the client can be installed in less than 3 minutes and doesnt need to be rebooted before it is fully operational, also you do not have daily updates because it is an algorithm that gets updated via each agent about every 3 months. We have been using Cylance for a few months officially now and are not looking back. ![]() ALSO AVG needed to restart to get rid of the ones it had found. AVG and out of 100 samples it only picked up 7. Loaded AVG on a test machine worked with a Cylance engineer to get the virus samples directly from Virus Total, that way we knew they were live samples and not something they could have prepared their systems for. So we took it a step further and did some proof of concept testing. They where very happy to do so and it blew me away at how well Cylance works. We started with Cylance when I came across their website when looking for new AV, I was very intrigued and asked them to present at our local spicecorps event here in Maine. The company I work for is currently using Cylance. If you want more info drop me a PM or let me know and I can get you a little more info if you want. Pretty ground breaking stuff if you ask me. Anything new is scan when it arrives and then follows the same rules. The cool part is you know about the files/processes BEFORE they are launched so you can deal with it before it becomes an issue. Once it knows what is on the client it then anaylizes what files, processes and memory is trying to do and decides how to handle it based on that. Best way I can explain it is Others are Reactive and Cylance is Proactive. ![]() If you get a chance to sit in on a demo or talk to someone cylance about it I think it would be benificial as it really is kind of a Flip Flop of what all other Antivirus clients are. That being said we never had any users that were unable to work just a little bit of slow down panning around in 3d models, etc. The only real "slow down" we found was after the initial install there was an initial scan that goes and inspects everything and that put a little bit of a load on the system. Our Desktops are pretty beefy but we also run quite a bit at the desktop ( AutoCAD, Revit, Maxwell Render ) so I was worried about overhead as well. We are a Design firm so CAD workstations at the desktop ( Architecture, Engineering, Design firm ). We implemented Cylance about 2 months ago but we did a POC before hand. If you could give me your best pros and cons I would be grateful. Yes actually.more along the lines of generic questions: what has your experience been in general, how's the performance impact on the workstation, have you seen many false positives/negatives, management console, etc. ![]()
