Padvish Antivirus

Product name
Padvish Antivirus 2014 - Home Edition
Pros
  • A) Good interface in my own perspective view, simple and as possible straightforward.
    B) It includes Cloud feature which a useful for quick action response.
    C) Recognized on Action Center so it undergone lots of test by conducted organizations to obtain WMI source code to registered.
    D) Two processes detected on Task Manager which is fine at all.
    E) Small update size which upon I install the current/latest version it holds already the March 2015 database definition.
CONS
A) The Cloud does not help a lot in order to make an exact verdict of file reputation. (Poor on my two sets of test)
B) Default configuration assigned as Delete which not recommended when a legitimate flagged it, however very confusing where the file stored also in Quarantine.
C) Links zero day test: 5/15
D) Samples gathered @MalwareTips 1/10 + Infected with AlphaCrypted.
E) Needs to improve their engine part, in my view it uses in-house.
F) Weak in Adware and other nasty parts
BOTTOM LINE
Padvish AV 2014, a localized Iranian based where can be really useful in such common attacks like Autorun and Conficker attacks which present in Middle East based however zero days and older samples are easily bypass upon test.

I think it uses In house Engine where matching the signatures from Virustotal list are inconsistent.

@Malware1 : No problem and here's the result:

Surprisingly the samples you send are undetected by scanning, however when I adjust the heuristics to High then everything came up with results which purely generic detections/heuristics.

Ran 10 samples and unfortunately very inefficient 0/12. (partial blocking is not helpful at all 3 detected as suspicious which means only the payload detected)

Overall result: 38 samples are left from its 77 collections that you've send to me. Its a buggy for this situation where signatures (reactive) didn't help much and proactive manage to stop most of them.

I wanted to look at the detection names, not the detection rate. But thanks anyway for the test, good work :)
