[QUOTE="Eddie Morra, post: 773382"] Cylance have a very nice R&D - one of the employees actually helped me figure some things out recently (related to AMSI), and I'd have been lost for a lot longer if it hadn't been for them. I think that the market Cylance is in is very competitive... and I am not referring to the security software market as a whole here. I'm referring to security solutions which are marketed as being Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning based. There's other solutions which are marketed as being Ai/ML based which have huge potential, like CrowdStrike and SentinelOne. Both of them also have brilliant engineers (e.g. CrowdStrike has Alex Ionescu and SentinelOne has Yarden Shafir). They do make a valid argument because Cylance is capable of detecting threats which were not detected by other AV vendors through their technology, but other AV vendors can make the same argument about Cylance, because Cylance does not detect 100% of all malicious software and other AVs have detected threats that Cylance could not. While I like the technology behind it, I personally feel that "true" Artificial Intelligence has not been achieved yet - and won't be for an incredibly long time - but it goes without saying that Ai-based detection through training data is still beneficial and will improve over time as it is adapted and experimented with more. Over time, false positive detection rates will decline as well as the technology becomes more accurate with its trained data. I am not so much a fan of the Cylance home version because it has some limitations which other main AV products do not have (e.g. scripts and allegedly WOW64 processes for on-execution - do correct me if this is incorrect) but I do like their endpoint version a lot more and I can tell that they've been maturing over-time. One thing I do really like about Cylance is that it tends to be quite lightweight - I've never heard of a heavyweight complaint - and it is allegedly good on privacy. It could be a smart move if Cylance were to offer an SDK to license out their technology to other AV vendors who do not have the resources/want to implement their own "Ai" based detection systems (or would like to enhance their own existing ones) in terms of company and revenue growth.
