[QUOTE="danb, post: 1123011, member: 62850"] Very cool, thank you! No, the GUI design is barely even started at this point. All of the backend code is there, we just need the graphic design elements... that is what we are waiting on. I doubt we will ever register as a security provider, simply because our products are designed to compliment AV's, not replace them. If we ever start adding AV features, then we might register as a security provider, but I doubt we ever add AV capabilities. AV is a crowded space, and there are already tons of great AV's on the market, and it would be silly for us to leave a space where there are only a very small handful of other products, only to go to an extremely crowded space. It is shocking how different AV software development is from zero-trust development... they are completely different animals. It is funny, I have seen several people from the AV space comment that creating a zero-trust solution is easy... you just block everything. It turns out, zero-trust development is a lot more difficult than people realize... when we first started VoodooShield, we thought it would be a 4-6 month project and we would be finished. I remember asking Dywayne and Karl... "So how difficult do you think it would be to build a user-friendly toggling computer lock?". We all said 4-6 months ;). I mean sure, you can build a zero-trust product that just blocks everything, but it is completely unusable. Several years ago I spent around 8-10 hours and built one from scratch, just to see how hard it would be. It was super easy to build, but it was completely unusable. Anyway, to make a long story short, I think we are going to stick to what we know best, and leave the AV features up to the devs that know that space. You certainly could run CyberLock by itself and it would certainly be a lot more effective than running an AV by itself. But the thing is, CyberLock pairs extremely well with all of the AV's... so why not just run both just to be super safe? [/QUOTE]
