[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1100897, member: 99014"] Whilst browsing the web, I came across this AV, which claims to be offering a rather "novel" approach. [URL unfurl="true"]https://finalavsecurity.com/[/URL] The approach is to check whether executables have a digital signature and sandbox the ones without. [MEDIA=youtube]7cKrPL2qjWU[/MEDIA] The website does have some issues: [LIST] [*]It's got a slight hint of unprofessionalism, allows user to click on every image to zoom. [*]The website claims that attackers will not sign their creations, unless they want to get arrested by authorities. This is anecdotal at best, as there is loads of signed malware. [*]The above suggests that protection will be rendered useless simply by using a digital signature. [*]Video rather unprofessional too, sort of acceptable for a startup. [*]Resources, such as articles and support very limited. [/LIST] Other than that, the application is not very expensive, I've not tried it myself. Trial is available on the website. [/QUOTE]
