Hot Take Review based on Shadowra tests

But my recommendation is add default deny protections to the system to supplement Bugdefender's weaknesses

Actually lolbins are not exclusive to B; they are Achilis tendon for all AVs, so adding default-deny solution is recommended with all AVs (except for those who have built-in like K) and it is not related to the multiple bugs of B, including its absurd FPs.

Thanks, I shared this with him in a DM, hasn't responded to me yet.

What is interesting is now his profile is blank, he literally deleted all his posts. Finally came to his senses?

Kaspersky
@Andy Ful @Trident @RoboMan
Yes, I'm currently working on a video that will demonstrate exactly this.

Test Setup:

  • Target AVs: ESET and Kaspersky (more AVs in follow-up videos)
  • I'll show the full AV configuration on-screen first. All protection components enabled, latest definitions/updates, real-time protection active, no exclusions.
Attack Scenario:

  1. Download malicious binary through Discord app using Brave browser
  2. Execute on the fully protected system
  3. Binary extracts Discord token from the victim account
  4. Exfiltrates to C2 (Discord webhook in this case since this is actually a common technique in real token stealers anyway)
The entire execution chain happens with AV protections fully running. No pre-disabled components, no outdated definitions, just a straight bypass of their detection and prevention engines.

Does this cover what you're looking for, or would you like to see any specific aspects of the AV configuration/testing methodology?

Easy. Bitdefender Total Security. And no, I'm not a paid shill like some may think. It is so far the only AV to fully stop my exploit dead in the water. And it has some great technology powering it, on top of being super easy to set up and forget about ! (Although there are some minor things I would recommend doing to get a better UX)

Bitdefender Free is also an excellent option if you do not want to purchase an AV or have the means to do so. The free version is already better than majority of all these paid AVs from my own testing.

We really need to stop with this guy. I've already shown that his posts are useless.
Especially since he always recommends the same antivirus software without explaining why...🙄

I am speaking mainly in terms of tangible evidence because during my tests, Bitdefender did not detect any Discord stealers...
After all, no antivirus is infallible.

If he is saying after all is said & done can XYZ AV be bypassed I think we all know it can & I've (we) have known that for years, other than that one known fact all else eludes me, a quote my late father used to say I think is from the bible is, 'where there is no wood the fire goes out' its not in my mind worth thinking or discussing further?

He is another self-proclaimed ChatGPT/Gemini-powered professor (in all subjects of life).

Not even gonna comment. 🤣

My comments on McAfee as well as my deep research have been published on numerous threads. With evidences such as hashes and more.

He hasn’t published anything but bla-bla blu-blu.
