App Review DoubleAgent Zero-Day Attacking Comodo Antivirus

It is advised to take all reviews with a grain of salt. In extreme cases some reviews use dramatization for entertainment purposes.

I never took Comodo seriously, your firewall may be as good as they say, although I find the Windows firewall enough, but the rest of your products are useless, in my opinion.

I found this on SecureBox (I think it's a Comodo blog):
Comodo, the global leader in cyber security solutions responded to Cybellum’s listing of vulnerable antivirus solutions and stated that Comodo’s Internet Security (CIS) was not vulnerable due to the unique manner in which its layered defense worked.
Ref: Zero-Day Attack DoubleAgent Turns Antivirus Into Malware

So, was CIS bypassed or not? The video shows that the DLL was loaded.

You need not go through such convoluted procedures to get past Comodo when used at default as I've said for quite a while (and God alone knows what settings these Churls used as it is not shown). But at my settings:

1). This "malware" needs Privilege escalation (specifically to screw with Verifierdlls) which would be blocked.
2). and it also needs to download the payload, also which would be blocked.

Finally this thingy has been termed horrible because it bypasses "all AV's". Guess these guys have never seen FUD malware which are a dime a dozen. So once again we have a case of shameless self-promotion that was just lapped up by the lay press.

But guys... you have to buy their product because they're the only company that can guarantee ABSOLUTE PREVENTION and NO FALSE POSITIVES. :rolleyes:

So does that mean that they are superior to the product by Helig Defense which is


"The World's Most Advanced Anti-Ransomware Solution
"?
No no, CS you've got it all wrong. RansomFree is the most advanced anti-ransomware solution because it's developed by a team of elite, former military cyber-security experts. ;)

We don't say elite anywhere on our site. We aren't that shameless ;)
