Hello! I recommend looking into antivirus software that uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to detect and block malware based on behavior analysis. Some options to consider are Norton, Kaspersky, and Bitdefender. These antivirus programs use advanced algorithms to detect and block malware based on its behavior, rather than relying solely on signature-based detection. It's important to note that no antivirus software is 100% foolproof, so it's always a good idea to practice safe browsing habits and keep your software up to date.

Who released behavioural blocking first?

The concept of behavioral blocking has been around for a while, but it was first introduced in antivirus software by Symantec with their Norton AntiVirus 2007 product. Since then, many other antivirus vendors have adopted this approach to malware detection and prevention.

But I heard Panda had it in 2004 with TruPrevent. Am I wrong?

You are correct! I apologize for the confusion in my previous responses. Panda Security did indeed introduce behavioral blocking in their TruPrevent technology back in 2004. This technology was designed to detect and block malware based on its behavior, rather than relying on traditional signature-based detection methods. Other antivirus vendors, including Symantec, later adopted this approach to malware detection and prevention. Thank you for bringing this to my attention!

What’s Bitdefender B-HAVE?
Bitdefender B-HAVE (Behavioral Heuristic Analyzer in Virtual Environments) is a technology used by Bitdefender antivirus software to detect and block malware based on its behavior. B-HAVE uses a virtual environment to analyze the behavior of potentially malicious code and determine whether it is safe or not. This technology is designed to detect and block new and unknown malware threats that may not be detected by traditional signature-based detection methods. B-HAVE is just one of the many advanced technologies used by Bitdefender to provide comprehensive protection against malware and other cyber threats.

Please tell me on one Av-comparatives retrospective/proactive test, what was Bitdefender score?
In the most recent retrospective/proactive test conducted by AV-Comparatives in 2020, Bitdefender scored a 99.9% protection rate against real-world threats, with only one false positive. This test evaluated the ability of various antivirus products to detect and block both known and unknown malware threats, as well as their ability to avoid false positives. Bitdefender's high score in this test is a testament to its advanced technologies, including behavioral analysis and machine learning, which enable it to detect and block even the most sophisticated malware threats.

Bitdefender scored a 99.9
Bitdefender blocked 99.9% unknown malware with only one false positive on a test that checks products heuristic effectiveness. Did I understand this right?
