[QUOTE="Alikhan, post: 680437, member: 43696"] That depends on your definition of needs. The behavior shield doesn't need the File Shield if you want to risk the sample being detected late (once it gets classification from the cloud). I've previously asked one of the behaviour shield devs and they've stressed that if you want a fair result, the file shield should be enabled, the behavior shield is last line of defense. Most of the behaviour shields detections are moved to the cloud so the File Shield would query synchronously whereas the behavior shield wouldn't but that's not to say the behaviour shield can not detect on its own. If you look at Cruelsisters test, you will see the behaviour shield did detect but it was often far too late. If the FIle Shield was enabled there, would those samples have executed and queried immediately? [/QUOTE]
