Advice Request Is there another "MCShield" out there?

Hi,guys.

I've been trusting my USB safety to MC Shield for few years now.But I noticed that signatures haven't been updated since mid-2016.....
I thought @TwinHeadedEagle and some other great minds were behind the project but ended support early.It really is a great tool....

With that said,is there any other tool out there that compares in both speed and memory footprint?

You can see some FAQs on their forums MCShield v3

Although it does seem that Mcshield has not been updated in a long time

MC shield will work as intended. As i remember the signatures is only for avoiding false positives, MC shield relies in heuristics.
Personally i will not installed it no because it is not effective, but i think soon or later the main program will conflict with the quick changes of windows 10 updates.

MCShield won't be updated anymore i think. It relies on heuristics and since USB spreading malware isn't a thing anymore no need to update MCShield. It covers all known techniques that malware/worms use to spread via removable drives.
