Just released a new version of my Advanced Process Analysis and Identification System Technician's Edition

A.P.A.I.S. is a live system analysis tool designed to take a single process, and inspect it thoroughly to provide field technicians full spectrum identification, and analysis capability.

It is similar to an anti-malware but without active protection or the ability to scan the entire system, as I designed it to perform tasks and interact with the user in ways impractical to ordinary anti-malware tools in order to accurately identify malicious live processes that may have somehow eluded active protection, and operate in live system memory...

Database Updates


New Signatures Updates 04 October 2013
Between Yesterday and today's updates you now have new:

Global Whitelist
Primary Malware Database


Happy Hunting!

On a side note:
Would users prefer the "Insecure/Vulnerable" database to be global or do you wish to continue full control manually as it currently exists?

Let me know your preference, what you need in the field is always paramount to me.

Hello MindlessGenius, in what situation would one use APAIS, and how does it benefit it over other solutions?

Hello Earth,

For many years I tried to find a tool that offered me what this can do in a single package. It did not exist.
Some good tools do exist but I always need to use too many of them, too many downloads, and too much trouble each time I need to analyze a system. This can lead to waist of time which clients can resent. So I built this system to answer all my own needs. I already spent many years working on it, and it's not even close to be completed.

The real benefit (at least in my case) is where it basically allows me to find everything missed by users installed antivirus products. Essentially if it can see it in live memory it can analyze it and thoroughly identify it. I designed it to help me find whatever falls through the cracks of existing solutions.

From the ground up it was never designed as protection but as a tool for administrators and field technical service personal to quickly identify previously unidentified spyware, trojans, and other types of malware.

By design it does not protect or scan the entire file system. It is designed to operate on the live system, and a single live process and thoroughly analyze and perform as thorough an identification of the process as can currently be done...

While it can scan a static file (on disk) it is designed to analyze live ones.

The registered version is where A.P.A.I.S. really shines. The Free is basically just a simple easy to use single process scanner with some powerful capabilities, but the registered version is entirely designed to cater to technicians and contains a lot of goodies...

It's still under active development, so user input is greatly appreciated. Essentially whatever you need in the field in your search and destroy mission, you let me know and I'll try and implement it...

This thing is full of experimental methodologies, and ideas, I'm working on. I'm trying to push the limits of what can be done giving my current technical skills, and expertise. However I think I did a pretty good job although like I said it still needs work.

For more information I would recommend you read the introduction to it on my web site:
https://hermes-computers.ca//apais_1.php

And please do not be afraid to register this thing, This is a single man project without funding or budget so I could really use the few dollars this would bring and it will help me keep it available to everyone...

I hope this helps

All the best!
