Hi malware fighters,
To be run on top of your existing av-solution:
http://www.immunet.com/user/newAnyone to comment? Present av scanners miss out more than half of to-day's new threats, this was the reason that Immunet launched a free av solution that uses "the force of the cloud". Rolling out the Immunet Protect, as the av scanner has been called, is being led by Oliver Friedrichs, a once Symantec official. The program uses every computer it is on as kind of a honeypot. That is why it could protect a whole community against attack in real time. "Every time one in this collective community meets with a threat all the others are also being protected in real-time".
The model for this new initiative is combining cloud computing, collecteve intelligence together with user groups to get a more effective malware detection and protection. Whenever the software detects a new threat, it is causing a reaction on all other Immunet Protect versions to block the threat in question, nonwithstanding what av solution Immunet Protected users use. These data will be send to the cloud, so other "communities" can benefit from it. The tool works fine next to an existing resident av solution like avast. The only thing is that the software was only downloaded 351 times since August 18th,
