[QUOTE="cruelsister, post: 1035754, member: 7463"] The malware was totally undetected by any vendor for the first week, then Crowdstrike picked it up. From there, as publicity about it hit the wires, everyone and their cat started to detect the malware. Unlike other data stealers where one would be suspicious of it with just an Outbound alerting firewall in place, this one had a valid digital signature so in many cases those that received the firewall alert may have just blown it off as a false positive. The combination of the Comodo Containment with the additional FW prompt provided protection others did not. [/QUOTE]
