[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 912460, member: 83059"] Can't wait to see more data here. Unfortunately, I've been noticing on my test farm that Emsisoft static scanning is picking up fewer and fewer of today's threats -- perhaps ESET and Kaspersky have both spoiled me in raising the bar for what I expect a static scanner to catch. It's surprising and a little concerning to see the BB letting some ransomware through as its reputation is that it's very sensitive (if not too sensitive). One interesting behavior I've seen which is highlighted in the second test is that sometimes the dynamic detection just says "is identified as DANGEROUS by the anti-malware network". Perhaps Emsisoft can chime in like they usually do, but is that just a cloud hash-based AV scanner? [/QUOTE]
