DeepInstinct is a U.S.-based software package for the enterprise.
Based on AI Machine Learning, it is one of the new-generation NGAV antivirus products.
In its v5 version, the editor has reinforced the detection of suspicious behavior by adding new security rules.
It's all very promising, but let's see what it's really worth.
User interface :
DeepInstinct offers a fairly minimalist agent and a large enough portal to control the product at will.
It is very complete, and users can configure it as they wish.
I also like the details on the home page, indicating which PCs have had the most threats, the number of detections, etc. (I didn't show it).
The software is very light.
Web protection: 10/10
DeepInstinct has an excellent anti-malware engine and correctly blocked all threats.
Too bad it doesn't have an agent that blocks malicious websites :/
Fake crack : 0,20/1
Surprisingly, DeepInstinct does not block any droppable files.
However, it does prevent a BtcMiner with rundll32.exe with a behavior detection rule.
Malware Pack : Remaining 28 out of 665 threats.
DeepInstinct has an excellent engine, as mentioned above.
On scripts, some are blocked thanks to its engine, or thanks to its behavior protections.
One thing I really appreciated was that DeepInstinct undoes any modifications made. However, this system still needs to be improved, as remnants of infections are not removed. This can be seen when I run the disinfection tools.
But all in all, I'm quite satisfied.
Final scan :
NPE : 4
KVRT : 10 (remnants of script infections that DeepInstinct had removed)
Autoruns: 2 registry keys created by malware at startup (script)
MalwareBytes : 14 (remnants of script infections that DeepInstinct had removed + 2 malware not detected
Final opinion:
DeepInstinct is an interesting and innovative solution for protecting users and companies.
I really appreciate its anti-malware engine and especially its proactive shields, which are very reactive.
There's also been a big effort on malware remediation in the event of an attack, but there's still work to be done. DeepInstinct doesn't erase all actions, which is a shame (even if it does reblock the attack).
The machine can easily be disinfected.
Recommended.
