[QUOTE="MacDefender, post: 878439, member: 83059"] This is very true as well. I didn't realize KSN supported this (thank you for the link), but many other advanced antimalware systems like F-Secure's Online Cloud and Cisco ThreatGrid do this. Basically, the cloud has the option of capturing an executable, then attempting to perform automatic malware analysis on it in a sandbox, and have you wait there for a few seconds for a more detailed verdict. This is a common technique for an enterprise on-premise APT protecting box like those from FireEye/Palo Alto, but some AV software also do this as part of their security cloud. If you are a "passive" KSN user, you definitely lose out on the malware emulating sandbox analysis. With that said, because of how computationally expensive this is, the cloud doesn't perform this analysis in realtime very often. [/QUOTE]
