[QUOTE="Shadowra, post: 1084329, member: 92939"] Gdata is a German company which, over the last few years, has begun to make a name for itself on the antivirus market, becoming increasingly popular. Still using 2 engines (Bitdefender and its own - CloseGap), the publisher seems to have improved its proactive defenses (which were already very good) to beef them up even further, despite a relatively old interface that's starting to gather dust... Let's take a look together! [MEDIA=odysee]id=1b1e51cc1d753e3da44f0595c26de3df132562d5;name=Gdata-Internet-Security-2024;path=%40Shadowra%3Af%2FGdata-Internet-Security-2024%3A1[/MEDIA] User interface : The interface is clear, but Gdata has changed the icons. But the publisher has kept it since... 2014 ! It's starting to look a bit dated. A change would be welcome. Nevertheless, it has the character of being clear and well configured by default, no doubt for brand regulars. Gdata has also undergone a facelift. Although it reserves around 700MB of RAM, it will use between 200 and 350MB, which is positive ! [COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]Web protection: 10/10[/COLOR] On the Web, Gdata's Web filtering and extension blocks all malicious links. Nothing to say on that score. [COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]Fake crack : 0,80/1[/COLOR] Gdata correctly blocks malware attempting to install itself, with the exception of .CPL, which will use rundll32.exe Fortunately, it won't take any action, probably because its C&C server is down. [COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]Malware Pack : Remaining 6 out of 667 threats.[/COLOR] I must admit I'm very surprised by his performance... Gdata has given us back a completely infection-free machine! The scripts were detected thanks to its powerful AMSI shield, capable of blocking the connection to download various Payloads. Only one file was not recognized, which replaced my wallpaper with a photo of a manga (which I replaced with my own), but there was no malicious action. Completely healthy machine! Congratulations! Final scan : GData : 0 NPE : 0 Autoruns : 0 malicious keys KVRT: 1 (A non-active .CPL file) Emsisoft : 0 Malwarebytes : 0 Final opinion: Gdata is a powerful antivirus that can easily compete with the likes of Kaspersky and Bitdefender. Its protection is very powerful, and its behavioral blocking (BEAST) is very formidable! It has made up for many of its shortcomings by becoming relatively lightweight. Gdata is, of course, highly recommendable! [/QUOTE]
