[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 987457, member: 32260"] Yes, this demonstration video is consistent with my knowledge of how works the Defender ASR rule "Block executable files from running unless they meet a prevalence, age, or trusted list criteria". Unfortunately, this demonstration alone cannot be considered a reliable test (for many reasons). :unsure: From several tests made by AV Labs (Business/Enterprise testing) and also in Malware Hub, it follows that MAX settings available for Windows Home and Pro are especially effective for *.exe files and effective against the fileless part of attacks. The Defender protection with MAX settings can be compared to the business AV versions with enabled Advanced Threat Protection features. Of course, such settings can significantly increase the false positives rate, especially for fresh application versions and software updates. [/QUOTE]
