genuine Question: if Comodo Cloud AV sandboxes every file it does not recognise & monitors its behaviour too - why use anything else if this is free? - why even bother using a layered protection or even their paid-for products?
browsers can be automatically ran inside a sandbox (ie Sandboxie)
Default Deny (VoodooShield)
with added virus detection & removal.
its essentially a lockdown AV & its free - its a close to 100% as any AV out there would be - or am i mistaken here?
1 The autosandbox function of CCAV is essentially the same as that of Comodo Firewall in Proactive config. (Please note that Comodo Firewall is a free product.) Autosandbox is good protection for file-based malware, whether you use CCAV or CFW.
2 The behavior monitoring of both products is weak and not to be relied on.
3 Autosandbox is like default/deny. So you don't need Voodooshield.
4 A modern, updated browser does not need to be sandboxed, and furthermore, sandboxing it will not help very much against today's browser exploits. But if you want to sandbox it, you can do that with CFW, you don't need Sandboxie.
5 CCAV is buggier and heavier than Comodo Firewall, and it provides less protection and less configuration possibilities. But it is more compatible with other security software.
