Malware Hub Report SecureAPlus (APEX + WhiteListing) - September 2019 Report

[sap]

Special thanks to @harlan4096 that has provided us with more information that we required. We have just released SecureAPlus v6.0.1 that improved the detection for fileless malware, which sometimes used by document viruses. If you perform another test again, please let me know. Thanks.

Great! You are welcome! I will perform some new tests again in the near future with SAP and check the improvements!

Will there ever be a standalone version of APEX, without any whitelisting or universal AV module?

I don't think this is feasible in the near future yet.
At this stage, for certain type of viruses (e.g. document virus), APEX is relying on the whitelisting to block the unwanted content (e.g. if running certain command line).
