[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1038188, member: 99014"] HMPA is not on par with Bitdefender in any way. HMPA also known as Sophos InterceptX constitutes for behavioural blocking/attack interception in Sophos products. Whilst you can’t say it is mediocre and doesn’t do the job, Bitdefender’s behavioural blocking and machine learning have been developed to a slightly higher standard and are more effective. You don’t need 2 guys doing the same. Other than behavioural blocking, attack interception and malware “immunisation” via adding malware artefacts that “fool” them you are already infected, it features malware scanner which is now kinda obsolete, as it doesn’t scan the memory contents, it just gets the modules path and scans them on disk (unlike Bitdefender and Kaspersky). Such scanning doesn’t work against fileless attacks. You can compare Sophos Home with Bitdefender but not HMPA. [URL unfurl="true"]https://home.sophos.com/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
