[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 986134, member: 32260"] Although this reasoning is probably true for most AVs, it cannot be generalized to all AVs, especially for samples with MOTW. It is possible that Microsoft Defender is a special case, but it can trigger protection for new malware on Level 1. [URL unfurl="true"]https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/configure-block-at-first-sight-microsoft-defender-antivirus?view=o365-worldwide[/URL] It would be interesting to know if some other AVs use similar protection (Eset LiveGuard?). It is probable that we should make the term "known samples" more precise. Can new samples be also known samples? Can Levels 1 and 2 be related to the pre-execution stage and Level 3 to post-execution? I am not sure if the below description of Level 3 is generally correct: We know that in some cases the sample can be analyzed on Level 1 similarly to Level 3. Maybe the "analysis level" should be changed to "post-execution level"? [/QUOTE]
