Do they still use the BD signature engine?

harlan4096 · Jun 14, 2020

I think so...

XLR8R · Jun 14, 2020

Yes, still using BitDefender.

harlan4096 · Jun 26, 2020

Well, finishing eScan testing (expired 30 days trial period activated on 25th of last month)... They have improved the detection since I tested last year, but... there is always a but...

still has issues stopping/detecting scripts and Java Rats...

Still the GUI looks old fashioned and it runs quite slow inside my VM compared to other products... it's true that this product also is focused in business environment -> EndPoint...

It's a bit too weak IMO. Hopefully improved with time. It did though surprise in some tests and manage to come out with a clean slate on the ransomware samples.

Thanks for the test @harlan4096

From the recent hub tests, it looks like it is on par with BitDefender. Is your experience different?

harlan4096 · Jun 26, 2020

eScan even blocked a rsw that BD could not and got encrypted (BD)

But with other malware samples seems BD can manage a bit better => java RAT attacks...

That speaks well for itself. But important to understand it's from 2019. When compare several of member @Solarquest and his latest tests this year 2020, I would say similar to what @harlan4096 said.

One test was very terrible for eScan as it even got uninstalled. I never seen that before.

In the end, scripts is an Achilles heel for more or less all AV vendors.
