[QUOTE="Paul.R, post: 878135, member: 8305"] [USER=87121]@mohamed_ajlan[/USER] If you have more questions let me know, I will come with an answer Coming with news: [I]It is true, that a simulator is not like the real world. It's an innocuous application that doesn't tell anything about real detection and protection capabilities of Dr.Web products. They test behavior blocking without distinguishing between malicious and benign (non-malicious) applications. However, Dr.Web does not only monitor the system and/or processes for suspicious behavior, but it also scans memory for malware-like code. This also enables Dr.Web not to warn about benign applications. Needless to say that there are many ways how the encryption works so the simulator may theoretically help malware authors to avoid techniques used by the simulator. In a nutshell, programs that pass the simulator tests may be more prone to encryption by ransomware than Dr.Web.[/I] [/QUOTE]
