App Review AVG Internet Security - Software Analyzer - ransomware test

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.
Yes, that´s a very good idea. Many thanks!:)
I tested BD antiransowmare against petya, Teslacrypt, locky, (I don't have any CTB-locker sample) which they claim to protect against in the UI of the app
failure rate: 100% :)
missed all of them. Useless even my petya samples were very very old
 
Is anyone familiar with the origin of the use of the word petya for petya ransomware? I think of the book Doctor Zhivago and the character Petya every time it is mentioned:confused:. If you don't know who Petya and Tanya is in this book, you just must read the book in the epilogue o_O:(:(:(:(:(

SparkNotes: Dr. Zhivago: Chapter 16: Epilogue

:(:(:(:(:(

These epilogue chapters classify as madness. Tanya and Udaloy :D
 
That would be good. I will post the link/video in Comodo Forum.

By the way, how you find CCAV overall?
it blocked 99.999% of ransomwares except MBR-type. Almost a perfect result
however, I disabled all the modules just left autosandbox on, CCAV always used 0.1-2.5% of my CPU in my i7 host machine (avast installed). I was monitoring it for 1 hour, I never saw it dropped to 0%, never. I manually whitelisted all avast folders but no improvement after a few reboots. That's why I uninstalled it
comodo firewall blocked 100% and didn't cause the persistent CPU usage

That´s very disappointing for Bitdefender, who has a good name in the Antivirus branch. They promise something and it´s not true. Total useless this tool.

Many thanks again for your help and effort!:):):)
 
Comodo becuase of its HIPS , almost block everything otherwise ask about their action : )) not surprise

by the way Evjl's Rain is there any finall comparison for these ransomware tests.. ?
what is the final comparison?

No, I disabled Comodo's HIPS. Just sandbox was enabled and the sandbox blocked everything
 
well we just have your test in diffrent topics, it would be great if you create ( of course when you finished your all tests ) a topic for finall results and compare tested products results ... for example creat a Table:

[vendor] [number of malware tested] [blocked]
Comodo ..............20 ........................ 16
..
..
.


hope you got it:D

hmm, I tested them differently. I just counted the number of missed samples but I may consider that when there is nothing else fun to test
