[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 994928, member: 32260"] No, SmartScreen is unrelated to BAFS. Furthermore, SmartScreen for Explorer works at the Post-launch level. If the BAFS worked and Defender has got the result like in the current test, then this would mean that all samples used in the test were totally unknown to Defender. The known samples downloaded from the Internet via Edge or Chrome are detected by BAFS (= cloud signatures + fast path detections) on Level 1. Blocking 98.6% of totally unknown samples would be a great result for any AV that does not use file reputation lookup. [/QUOTE]
