The new CryptoPrevent v8 has been re-written from the ground up, incorporating new features to bring you the latest protections from crypto-style ransomware and all other forms of malware!
For the FREE version
NEW features (Free and Premium Editions)
New: Folder Watch – Monitors and protects common folders from items that match malware definitions.
New: Submit Malicious Files – This will allow you to submit malicious files (which are not in our malware definitions) to review for inclusion in the default definitions.
Improved: Program Filtering Protection – The original ‘BETA’ program filtering protections were very effective, but caused issues with running certain programs; now it offers vastly improved reliability as it is based on the new code platform of the coming 3rd generation ‘d7x’ PC technician utilities, it is thoroughly tested, and recommended for mass usage!
Improved: SRP Protection – The original protection method since CryptoPrevent version 1 was automatically created “SRP” rules (aka “Software Restriction Policies” which are normally only available in “Professional” editions of the Windows operating system and only scriptable across Active Directory/domain environments.) CryptoPrevent v1 created 8 SRP rules for protection and v7.4.21 (the final v7) created just under 400 SRP rules, while version 8.0 currently creates just under 4000! That’s 10x as many as v7 and 500x as many as v1!
New/Improved: Expanded Malware Definitions (Optional) – Expanded malware and ransomware detection definitions add cutting edge detection power to CryptoPrevent, and are updated at least weekly, although they may increase the risk of ‘false positive’ malware detections. (These are entirely optional; you may elect to keep the standard definition set with less risk of ‘false positive’ detections.)
For the PREMIUM version
New Features (Premium Edition only)
New: HoneyPot Ransomware Protection – Very effective in preventing new and unknown ransomware from encrypting your files! When malicious activity is detected ALL non-essential programs are terminated, stopping malicious software dead in it’s tracks.

New: KillEmAll v5 Integrations – Based on the new code platform of the coming 3rd generation ‘d7x’ PC technician utilities, KillEmAll v5 allows for fast termination of non-essential programs including malware and ransomware, and is integrated into the new Tray Icon along with other useful features!
New: Tray Icon Features and Notifications – Easily change/view CryptoPrevent settings or activate the KillEmAll v5 integration. Notifications are displayed when the original SRP, Program Filtering, Folder Watch, or HoneyPot protections have been triggered.
New/Improved: Customization Abilities – Customize CryptoPrevent with powerful blacklisting/whitelisting support and in new ways including the new Folder Watch protections (which cannot be customized in the Free Edition.)
