[QUOTE="Nightwalker, post: 1015212, member: 23015"] Its exactly what I thought when I read the news, Webroot is dead, patent trolling is just a consequence of that. Prevx was indeed a milestone for the industry, there was something genuinely exciting and revolutionary about its technology and of course the promises of low performance impact coupled with very high protection against zero-day threats was the highlight of the product. However, after the acquisition of Prevx technology by Webroot, the latter failed to turn that promising technology into something really good, in the end all you had with Webroot Secure Anywhere was the promise of cutting edge, while in the real world it was a product that had a much lower performance than "traditional solutions". Furthermore, these so-called traditional solutions embraced the cloud and developed new technologies, adapted to the reality of cyber attacks, becoming modern hybrid solutions with the strengths of traditional solutions and with the help of machine learning, AI, cloud, new blocking techniques behavior and etc, meanwhile Webroot Secure Anywhere failed to fix its weaknesses or even improve on its strengths, which resulted in a mediocre product that ranks below virtually every paid and non-commercial solution on the market today.
