[QUOTE="Fabian Wosar, post: 461682, member: 24327"] BB doesn't check files but processes. So forget about files. In general we check all processes that belong to a user session. So literally everything you start or that an application your started starts. Any white or trusted processes lists only take effect in case the BB actually saw something odd going on. Only when the BB is about to ask the user for a decision, we will check the cloud first if there is an automatic decision available. That is also why any claims that the BB with AMN is in some way more effective than without is completely ill-informed non-sense. All the cloud adds are more autonomous decisions. No, we worked a lot on the backend systems since then. New files we see are nowadays classified almost exclusively using statistical models as well as various vendor sharing feeds. It is one of the reasons why the percentages are gone from the configuration, because in more than 99% of all cases the cloud returns a definitive verdict and not based on decisions other users made. The false positives would be outrageous if we would just blindly trust VT. Obviously we get tons of samples from VT, the same way every other participating vendor does. It doesn't mean however that we actually just blacklist everything we got via their sample feeds. [/QUOTE]
