Hey Guys!

We have all new versions of most of our software!

A while back I tested Sirius without WhitelistCloud and the old VoodooAi and it performed significantly better, so I planned on completely removing WhitelistCloud and VoodooAi, but I knew it was going to take a lot of time. Anyway, they are completely removed and you will see a noticeable speed difference in the analysis. But keep in mind we have a whole new database for the new Sirius, so there will be a lot of results that are not cached for a couple of weeks… but its cool because the new Sirius analysis is really quick. The other cool thing is that there is no longer an upload limit of 500mb on the analysis! So it is no problem if a malware is 2-3 gigs 😉.

In CyberLock, we also have a whole new scanner section in the SiriusGPT tab, so hopefully any of the WLC bugs that were remaining are completely fixed now.

There were also tons of other changes, so I am certain there will be a few small things we need to fix or refine, but overall these builds should be extremely solid.

Please let me know what issues you find, have a great weekend!

Thank you guys!

Thanks for sharing the builds/notes. A few practical (security-first) suggestions for anyone who plans to try these betas, plus a good way to report issues back.

Before installing (basic safety checks)
  • Verify the SHA-256 after download matches what Dan posted (PowerShell: Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 "path\file.exe").
  • Check the file’s digital signature (Right-click > Properties > Digital Signatures). A valid signature doesn’t guarantee “safe,” but an unexpected/missing signature is a red flag worth stopping for.
  • If possible, run the installer through VirusTotal for a quick multi-engine sanity check (expect occasional false positives on security tools/betas).

Beta testing best practices (to avoid lockouts/data loss)
  • Prefer a VM or a non-production machine first. Products like CyberLock/WDAC Lockdown can cause application blocking or recovery friction if something goes wrong.
  • Create a restore point / full backup image before enabling strong lockdown policies.
  • Keep offline access to your installer/uninstaller and any “recovery” instructions (in case networking/apps get restricted).
  • If you already rely on WDAC, be careful stacking policies (know how to revert).

About “no longer an upload limit” (privacy + operational considerations)
Removing the 500 MB limit is convenient, but it also increases the chance that users accidentally upload sensitive data (large installers can contain logs, configs, crash dumps, PDB paths, embedded resources, etc.). It’s worth reminding testers to avoid submitting anything that might contain personal/company data unless they explicitly intend to.

Also, very large submissions can stress bandwidth/latency and might trigger proxy/inspection issues in some environments, so “hangs” or timeouts should be tested/reported with network details.

What to include when reporting issues (so they can be fixed fast)
  • Exact product + version (CyberLock 9.00 beta, SiriusGPT 1.00 beta, etc.) and whether it was an upgrade or clean install
  • Windows version/build (e.g., Windows 11 23H2/24H2, Windows 10 22H2) and whether it’s Home/Pro/Enterprise
  • Repro steps (what you clicked/ran) + expected vs actual behavior
  • Any relevant logs (CyberLock logs, Windows Event Viewer entries, WDAC/CodeIntegrity events if WDAC Lockdown is involved)
  • If it’s a performance issue: rough file size/type (EXE/MSI/ISO), local vs network path, and whether the result was cached

Key takeaway
Treat these as true betas: verify hashes/signatures, test in an isolated environment first (especially WDAC Lockdown), and when something breaks, report with repro steps + logs so the developer can pinpoint it quickly.
