[QUOTE="WiseVector, post: 952216, member: 76851"] It's hard to define "full firewall". But I think the WVSX's firewall is very effective in preventing malware, and it is also enough for home users. I will tell you why, . By default the AI will help the user to decide whether to block a program from accessing the internet. This can greatly reduce the workload of the users. . Users can adjust the firewall level according to their needs. . Users can write custom rules to get better protection, such as block programs produced by certain vendors, block programs with a specific digital signature or block programs within a specific folder. Most importantly, the firewall is now talking to other components of WVSX, allowing it to block advanced & popular threats that other firewalls can't. For example, Dll-sideloading attack (Banload, Guildma, Javali, etc. These malware families most target Brazilian and Italian) Rundll32, regsvr32.exe abuse. (Trickbot, Dridex, Ursnif, CobaltStrike, Hanictor, IcedID, etc.) Code injection to bypass firewall. 2. Whether to turn off other firewalls depends on the user's needs, if other firewalls have some functions WVSX does not, and the users need it, then they can keep it. 3. I can confirm that Comodo also uses WFP driver, during our tests we didn't see any conflicts. 4. The Windows built-in firewall also relies on WFP. It does not conflict with WVSX's firewall, but I think it is not enough to protect users from malware. Same with cruelsister, In our malware tests, we rarely observed that the Windows firewall could stop malware from posting information. Not to mention the advanced threats listed above. [/QUOTE]
