[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 877097, member: 83059"] I would still feel confident about F-Secure in the real world. Check out [USER=36043]@harlan4096[/USER]'s final test report, [URL="https://malwaretips.com/threads/f-secure-17-8-beta-january-2020-report.97254/"]Malware Hub Report - F-Secure 17.8 Beta - January 2020 Report[/URL] Of all of the tested samples, F-Secure only allowed one to encrypt your documents, and that was using the Node.js technique to bypass DeepGuard using a whitelisted binary. F-Secure did fairly well for static scanning. It did as well as I've seen other products do in the Hub for bonus dynamic testing (basically just DeepGuard testing). It has 4 or 5 engines layered together with differing strengths while remaining light. DeepGuard used to have a reputation for having too many false alarms. These days, I find this new balance to be totally reasonable. Given all this talk about whitelisting individual Steam games to use Protected Folders, etc, I understand why F-Secure might have decided to implement their Protected Folders in this fashion.
