[QUOTE="Shadowra, post: 1098433, member: 92939"] Heimdal is a Danish company offering an anti-virus solution called Thor. This solution includes a NextGen antivirus solution, a firewall and an IDS called Vigilance. Let's see how it behaves. [MEDIA=odysee]id=5b4226ab09c728b10e1c86b7a2b906dc61c4c92d;name=Heimdal-Thor-Premium-2024;path=%40Shadowra%3Af%2FHeimdal-Thor-Premium-2024%3A5[/MEDIA] User interface : The interface is clear and easy to understand. The software is fairly simple, with few settings, which may be of interest to novices. On the other hand, during my test, Heimdal functioned rather strangely, not always alerting you in the event of detection and not automatically placing them in quarantine! You have to go to the NGAV and place them in quarantine yourself. In terms of RAM consumption, it's fairly light, but slows down program launch due to a check in the Cloud. [COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)]Web protection: 7/9[/COLOR] 2 malwares were not blocked by either the protection or the firewall. One malware injects the RegSvcs.exe process, which will download other malware. The rest is blocked by the antivirus, but with no download alert. Web filtering is non-existent. [COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]Fake crack : 1/1[/COLOR] The installation is blocked by Heimdal. [COLOR=rgb(97, 189, 109)]Malware Pack : Remaining 20 files out of 115.[/COLOR] During the first scan, Heimdal left behind 24 pieces of malware, but found 4 more afterwards, bringing the total to 20. At runtime, it's carnage! Heimdal lets too many attacks through, with Trojans, Botnets and other stealers passing through without reaction. Heimdal tried to block a few payloads, but soon found itself overwhelmed. Not great... Final scan : Heimdal : 9 NPE : 25 Autoruns : [COLOR=rgb(209, 72, 65)]17 malicious keys ![/COLOR] Malwarebytes : 9 KVRT : 21 [COLOR=rgb(209, 72, 65)](Infection Memory !! RAT activity !)[/COLOR] Final opinion: Heimdal could be a good challenger, but it's not. It's based on the Avira engine, but doesn't fully exploit it. It relies too much on the SDK engine, which is totally inadequate. Its other shields (such as Vigilance or its firewall) NEVER react! I don't recommend it.
