Bug Report

Hi @hjlbx,

Thank you for the feedback. I'll try to re-produce it. ;)

If possible then please send tested file via PM.

Thanks in advance.
Why don't you have your own Crystal Security entry on the main MT web page under vendors ?

I guess only mods can make entries for vendors.

Regards,
Kardo

Bug Report

@hjlbx,

I tried to re-produce it but without success.

I downloaded Eicar test file. Modified Criteria settings and Eicar was detected as Suspicious. Got alert and saw each vendor detection via Details. Analyzed file via Overview, got alert with same result.

Tried also with default Criteria settings (then Eicar was deteced as Unsafe because of the high detection ratio).

I am not sure but maybe it was temporary issue. If reported issue occurs again then please let me know. :)

Regards,
Kardo

@Kardo Kristal
So i am testing your program again and i can confirm that it doesn't check all files(or at least it doesn't add them in whitelist) and allows them.
I am really confused so will try to make it simple.
  1. Does crystal security allow a file if it can't access VT using the local database?
  2. Does the program use the free VT api or paid(restricted access 4/minute)
  3. When does a program get added in whitelist?
Thanks.

PS. I use the portable version if it matters.

Hi @SHvFl,

Thanks for the feedback. :)

Please be sure that the following options are enabled under Settings:

Protection => Analysis mode
  • Start as Admin (required for "Active processes mode")
  • Created objects
  • Modified objects
  • Active processes
You can also try out On-access setting.

Monitoring => Scope
  • All files
  • Program files
  • System files
  • Custom
After changes do not forget to click on "Apply".

It is helpful if you can describe your issue step-by-step then I can try to re-produce it.
  1. Does crystal security allow a file if it can't access VT using the local database?
  2. Does the program use the free VT api or paid(restricted access 4/minute)
  3. When does a program get added in whitelist?
  1. Yes. Then it is detected as "Safe [internal]"
  2. It is free API but limitation is 10 requests/per minute/per IP
  3. It depends on your Settings (Behavior and Criteria)
Great work keep it up buddy

Thanks. :) @Animerris

Regards,
Kardo

I like the New icon&Safe notification,Unsafe notification.I use(installer version) beside Avast! IS 2016.View attachment 111208

One question: Why it say unknown publisher.I downloaded from given link as you posted.

Because Crystal Security doesn't have digital signature, It doesn't mean It's not the official version.

@Kardo Kristal ..
Wow, Crystal Security just keeps getting better and better..:)
Just updated to version 3.5.0.190 ...
Really like the improvements,..
I did like your previous tray-icon, but I like your new one even more.
Excellent work Kardo:)

To anybody reading this thread that has not yet given Crystal Security a try I highly recommend Installing it..
If you use Malwarebytes pro or Zemana...then I recommend using this instead
