[QUOTE="danb, post: 928475, member: 62850"] Great find CS! That is pretty much exactly what I had in mind... I just downloaded and played with it for a few minutes, and it did great on a quick and dirty test. I am going to install the free version and if I like the software I will buy a license... it is only $24.00 per year. So I think I might finish the SimpleBackup project without the ransomware protection module since I am so close to finishing it (I have only spent around 30 hours total so far), but I am not going to release it to the public. If I think of something significant to add to Neushield, I will email the devs and let them know so they can add it if they like the idea. Otherwise, it looks like they pretty much have everything covered, so I will just use Neushield instead of stealing their tech. I forgot to mention... of course blocking ransomware (or any kind of malware) pre-execution is most ideal. But I think something like Neushield is a great safety net. And besides, it kills two birds with one stone by backing up your data as well (assuming it works this way, I have not played much with it yet). I guess what I am saying is that this makes all of the controlled folder access type apps completely obsolete... this is the way to protect against ransomware (in addition to blocking the attack pre-execution). So simple, so effective. [/QUOTE]
