[QUOTE="Trident, post: 1038346, member: 99014"] It provides what is called Intrusion Detection System, more specifically Host-Based Intrusion Detection System that works as group of rules/policies that should not be performed. For example, Adobe Reader should not drop executable files (it has no good reason to do so). Code should not be injected in notepad.exe and mspaint.exe. The CryptoGuard module works by copying files prior to their modification in a repository— once ransomware is identified they will be restored. Bitdefender has had Intrustion Detection System since 2008 (when they released the 2009 generation). Later on it was merged with Active Virus Control, which was renamed Active Threat Control and now Advanced Threat Defence. It includes rules of actions that should not be performed. It also includes the same ransomware defence, called Ransomware Remediation. By running multiple solutions of this sort, you risk conflicts (even though they suggest it’s compatible), reduced disk space, performance and lifespan with multiple programmes copying files in a repository when they believe they should and you are also spending unnecessary amount of money on defence that’s already there. This is my opinion. As to Intercept X, they’ve just called the EDR/XDR the same name as the technology derived from HMPA. [/QUOTE]
