Main Features
- Real-time protection.
- Intrusion detection system - heuristic monitoring of objects attempting to penetrate network services or the Internet.
- Active virus control – this innovative technology for proactive scanning uses advanced heuristic methods to detect potentially new threats in real-time.
- Proactive new technology B-HAVE to reduce dependence on virus signatures through proactive detection of unknown threats. The technology is based on behavioral analysis in a virtual environment.
B-HAVE monitors application parameters and actions. If no malicious actions are detected, B-HAVE runs the program in normal mode. If suspicious objects are found, B-HAVE automatically removes or quarantines the application.
- HTTP scanning – analysis and blocking of fraudulent and phishing websites.
- Anti-rootkit – technologies for detecting hidden malicious software, also known as rootkits. This is a hidden type of software, often malicious, that hides processes or programs from traditional detection methods; rootkits provide privileged access to the PC.
- Periodic updates without user intervention, maintaining an optimal level of protection against new threats.
- Early scanning during system boot – this improves virus detection at startup and speeds up loading time.
- Idle scanning – the antivirus detects when the computer uses minimal resources to perform system scanning without affecting user work.
