will the home products get ransomware remediation in an upcoming update is that the only difference between the home and enterprise products?It's the same signatures but advanced has certain technologies that aren't yet launched in the consumer products like ransomware remediation (rollback )
I'm using the eset protect advanced and it has ransomware remediation enabled by default but except ransomware protection there shouldn't be a difference in the default config of the endpoint product over consumer products and that feature should be available to consumers at some point as well
Btw about ransomware protection on eset , av software that use hardware features would unfortunately have worse results under a VM where it can't access the hardware features
I'm not an eset employee so no idea but I guess sometime this yearwhen will the home products get ransomware remediation?
Killing Bot would be so wrong...don`t.
They said in their forums that it will be coming to consumer products sometime this year. My bet is when version 19 is released.will the home products get ransomware remediation in an upcoming update is that the only difference between the home and enterprise products?
Microsoft Defender is adequate if - and only if:Then we'll get to the point where using Defender is enough and not having to pay for a 3rd party antivirus software.
The WithSecure version tested does not include the changes that are being made in the consumer version. Eventually it will, but not now.The results for WithSecure didn't really surprise me. It's kind of going hand in hand with the Personal app, and some of the changes their making with it, not for the better.
Thank you, Shadowra, excellent work![]()
And what would you say those 'ugly truths' are ?inconvenient and ugly truths about antivirus
At the moment excluding the ransomware remediation feature that @Vitali Ortzi talked about, everything is exactly the same in the home and enterprise version.ESET, I think ESET will win the final. The only issue is that ESET home product detections are not as great as their business enterprise, like ESET Protect Advanced. Recently, AV-TEST conducted ransomware tests, and ESET Security Ultimate was unable to detect it, but ESET Protect Advanced detected it. Can anyone explain how it is possible that ESET signatures are the same or different for home and business/enterprise users?
They are not very effective beyond the various types of detection by signature or patterns. They can be made more effective but that is dependent upon the knowledge and skill of the individual(s) deploying, configuring, and using (the end user) the security software.And what would you say those 'ugly truths' are ?
Microsoft is to blame. The capability to run scripts should not be possible in any way for the Windows OS straight out of the box.Looks like AVs are not the only ones having issues running scripts.
The above as stated, would seem to me, to be, the perfect opportunity for a vendor like Eset, or another 3rd party, to capitalize on Microsoft lazy attitude, and make a product that "SOMEHOW" overcomes the above stated issues.Microsoft is to blame. The capability to run scripts should not be possible in any way for the Windows OS straight out of the box.
Windows is like giving a 12 year old a child a loaded pellet gun and telling that child "Here, now go play."
Billions of grown adults cannot handle Windows. What makes Microsoft think those adults can keep it secure?
Oh, wait a minute. Microsoft knows those adults cannot keep Windows secure but they are "users that want to use stuff and buy games, media through the Microsoft Store" and, hence, not Microsoft's problem.
Microsoft's official position is that it is not responsible for users' security. (Read their EULAs. If you do then you will be one of the three people in the world that have. I am one of them. So who is that third person?)
When Microsoft forces increased or inconvenient security onto the "users that want to use stuff freely without inconvenience" then those users scream, kick, and cry like a tantrum.
Valid comments for sure, but I think you missed the context and humour in cartaphilus post. :}Microsoft is to blame. The capability to run scripts should not be possible in any way for the Windows OS straight out of the box.
I thought it was funny, just the image is too big to re-post. (Tip: There's a lot of this type of meme on Reddit programmers subreddit)Valid comments for sure, but I think you missed the context and humour in cartaphilus post. :}
