Sonoran Desert 7 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Description: Make the email tag message shorter and editable. Details: Have it so email tag messages are shorter with less cryptic database and virus definition info and just have a short message (with the link to ESET) with something like "scanned with ESET Smart Security, a better way to fight malware" or something similar. Possibly make the tag message editable for a custom message with the link to ESET. Veteran ESET power users might chortle and guffaw at this simple request but in my wife's business she talks with and emails many people who don't know anything about computers and malware, it's all mysterious to them. Many of them have "computer problems" stemming from getting malware installed on their systems. They run Norton or McAfee (or other inferior AV's) simply because it was pre-installed on their computer/device and just keep using it, not knowing any better. At times, in the course of conversation, chit-chat, some of my wife's clients complain of "yet another virus" and ask my wife what she uses and she tells them ESS (and recommends Malwarebytes Pro along with ESS for an unbeatable combination). Of course, they've never heard of ESET and their computer "fixers" never recommend ESET either. They just keep bringing their infected computers back to the shop, or have the shop log in and remove the malware, not getting advice to try a better malware solution. This suggestion is presented as just a simple way to "grass roots, word-of-mouth" advertise ESET. In my opinion, people who don't know anything about computers or just don't want to fuss with their malware solution should only be running ESET anyway. ESET is simple to install and works perfectly at all default settings with no tweaking required, perfect for a novice. Everyone emails and having the simple ESET tagline link might make people who don't pay attention to computer security aware of ESET and hopefully try out ESET.

itman 1,746 Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) When is Eset going to fix this and other security issues of SSL protocol scanning mentioned in the below referenced article? Disabling of HTTP Public Key Pinning Each and every TLS intercepting application I tested(Avast, Eset, and Kapersky) breaks HTTP Public Key Pinning (HPKP). It is a technology that a lot of people in the IT security community are pretty excited about: It allows a web page to pin public keys of certificates in a browser. On subsequent visits the browser will only accept certificates with these keys. It is a very effective protection against malicious or hacked certificate authorities issuing rogue certificates. Browsers made a compromise when introducing HPKP. They won't enable the feature for manually installed certificates. The reason for that is simple (although I don't like it): If they hadn't done that they would've broken all TLS interception software like these Antivirus applications. But the applications could do the HPKP checking themselves. They just don't do it. ref: https://blog.hboeck.de/archives/869-How-Kaspersky-makes-you-vulnerable-to-the-FREAK-attack-and-other-ways-Antivirus-software-lowers-your-HTTPS-security.html Edited May 8, 2015 by itman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Validate the cert pinning path and leave it at that. If you can't trust a web site with an EV cert., you shouldn't be doing business there. Well... the researcher (alias the author of the blog post) mentioned that none of the AVs he tested would do this. So all would not scan EV certificates. As for ESET this is wrong as I showed in the topic I linked. However back to your suggestion. Even some guys who want to spread malicious files could register a EV-certificate. It would be quite expensive for them and they would maybe have to hide behind a (fake) company, but it could be possible. Or just think of the file hosters which use an EV certificate. However on the other hand of course sites which host static content (or at least no user-submitted files) could be excluded this way. So I would agree to have an option in the SSL scanning settings to exclude all EV certificates from SSL scanning, but not to do this automatically. The user should be able to choose whom he trusts and whom not. Edited May 10, 2015 by rugk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The user should be able to choose whom he trusts and whom not. I posted this under a topic in the Smart Security forum and will duplicate here. I believe this is the best overall solution. Also I don't believe this suggestion wouldn't be too difficult for Eset to quickly implement. Here's my suggestion to make SSL protocol usable. Add an option to the Eset's desktop taskbar icon display to turn SSL protocol scanning on and off. You can even add time intervals that it will remain off. This way I could easily turn off SSL protocol scanning when I wanted to use a site where I wanted my privacy maintained and when finished, easily re-enable SSL protocol scanning.

kakashi 6 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Eset corp for the master peace eset 9 Details here. Add a new 4 firewall artificial intelligence technology protection That be more accurate ,focus ,turbo speed blocking,deep scan attack,and ports,anti bypass firewall and anti brute force,ping protection and fast response, reduce false and positive firewall attacks or detection ,fix firewall crash and bugs Add new engines for better detection 1. Ai codes engine =this will analise all codes running or hidding this can increase to detect any virus or any modifications 2. Ai header engine =scan full software or anything from the inside 3. Ai advance heuristic =this will help To detect more complex infections 4. Ai forensics engine = this will detect more difficult and strong virus mechanism And run a full diagnostic if is safe or not what the detect 5. Ai.cloud engine detection = this is for maximum deep detection analise everything 6 AI dll engine = this is very important most of the virus hide uaing dll and anti virus fail to detect it or a haker manipulate a dll to enter to your pc and the anti virus fails and cant block it 7. Ai smart strong engine for sistem defense. = this block any manipulation of the software ,registry,network and settings,polity ports, dll,keyboard,webcam,browser,flash,java,script,text,audio ect virus or any malware can bypass this. 8.

kakashi 6 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Fix eset driver crash and instaling and unistaling problems Make a new anti stealth protection that protect your files to been steal and prevent criptolokers virus to encrypt your files and take over the sistem or share Make a new eset filter network protection Add low impact starting up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rugk 397 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) @kakashi Just shut off your computer then you have the protection you are suggesting. And your computer will be "turbo speed blocking" any "anti stealth protection" and "criptolokers" (yeah crispy lockers, bad things) and "dont slow down the pc performance" while blocking "any malware can bypass this". Don't forget you will have a "dns encryption" ("nothing" is quite undistinguishable I think, so that's encrypted), a "new secure" "ssl" "protocol" "that cant be intercepted"¹ and of course a very "low hardware and harddrive impact". The "Ai header engine" can take a header if water is in your computer so everything spouts out. The "Ai smart anti exploit mitigation" will protect you from software which tries to mitigate exploits, which is the only useful thing to do because it would be bad if you miss heroic deeds. And all "software holes ,like bios,cpu,hardware" will be blocked too of course. So all this software holes are not needed anymore. Just uninstall your BIOS, CPU or hardware. No problem! Additionally "bugs" will be smashed as these crawling critters don't have a warm and comfortable environment in your computer. And the "keyboard" blocking is by default of course - no one needs a keyboard. "4 firewall" will protect you from "artificial intelligence technology" - just image all these AIs which try to kill people. All of them will be barbecued! (There's only one problem: What will happen to the other AIs like the "Ai forensics engine"?) The "smart engine anti publishing" is not really new but very effective - usually it's called "control my brain". But of course it's improved as it's smart now. Now it will not only control the brain of one user it will also try to control other users brains with whom the user spoke. "Add a new fast intelligence run package" - Yes of course the next NSA marathon will come soon! "Fix eset driver crash" - No the ESET drivers are reliable, there driver's license was never revoked at all and all "Add low impact starting up" - Until you are not hitting your shutdowned computer you already have a low impact. ¹ (quite difficult to bring the words into the right order while still quoting correctly...)

kakashi 6 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I found in eset 9 some bugs. The icon look in blank the firt time installing crash The scan engine very slow Try to reduce memory from 100mbs to 50 or 40mbs this can help Nope firewall errors for the moment Idont see the anti exploit mitigation and the anti exploit log Try to reduce ping network impact this can help page load more faster Fix the start up have higth impact Add new smart diagnostic like Network Performance Memory Anti virus engine Report automatically crash Report https website certificate error bugs or vulnerability and sll problems And protocols filtering Report firewall crash or bugs This help mode send it automatically to the developer You try to add anti backdoor technology ,prevents any software ect open a backdoor or webpages Ect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweX 871 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) Try to reduce memory from 100mbs to 50 or 40mbs this can help Because ? And help with what exactly ? Do you even know why the RAM usage is like it is ? (sorry for only quoting one of your requests...I simply don't have time to ask questions about each one) No, rugk doesn't hate you, don't be silly kakashi. It's just that we are all concerned about what would happen with the products if you were head of development at ESET. ESET could easily loose over 50% of their user-base if they did a 360 with their product lineup, and started to offer something totally different. If we would go over to Kaspersky's, Symantec's, Bitdefender's, Avast's, Webroot's etc etc... forum and copy your post and paste it there, do you think they would appreciate it, or not ? (People use their products (just like ESET) because they like them, not because they want the products to become something totally different.) Why do you even use ESET if you don't like it and want it to change so badly ? There are over a 100 other AVs you can try out if you like, maybe one of them will suit you better.

rugk 397 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) Thanks @SweX and @kakashi no I'm not hating you. I'm just showing that most of your ideas are not "simple ideas in order to make a better product" in an ironical way. So if I'm suggestion something I would at first try to write at least in decent English. I'm not an native English speaker too and my English is not nearly perfect, but anyway you can at least try to put the spaces, commas and other things at the correct position. Additionally you can even just use an online translator tool like Google Translator or - if you want to write it yourself - an (Online) dictionary for English to look up words (especially the spelling) and installing an English spell checker in your browser should also not be that difficult. Secondly I'd like to remember you about my "suggestions" for you I posted some time ago: Okay, seriously now... This is a feature thread, so please don't report problems here. Check before posting whether these features are already included in ESS. The first post in this topic includes an explanation how you should report ideas (for features etc) here. Also pay attention to the blue message there! Also you can't just add some nice sounding words to a feature to improve the feature. Even if ESET adds a "super-intelligent smart enhanced advanced ultra-power-heuristics-engine AI with super turbo fast implementation protection" this doesn't change anything. Calling things like this may be impressive in pokémon games, but in reality that's just gibberish. And these are the obvious things which make your post (to say it polite) not that useful, so it also won't help you if add things like "don't ignore this this is important for all the security users" like you did in your last post. And I don't want to get into detail now, but in my first reply to your post you can already get some ideas of how useful or reasonable some of your ideas are - and most of the post just consists of quotes from you. Anyway just keep in mind that I'm not saying you shouldn't express your suggestions here and of course I'm not hating you. You just have to suggest features which are not taken from a pokémon game and most importantly they have to make sense! And you have to explain your features, just throwing words around doesn't help anybody and as I "explained" your ideas in my first reply you can see what they look like. Or tell it as Arey wrote, because I doubt you read the first post (although I've linked several times to it now): If you have a specific feature or functionality you would like to see added (or improved) please post it here, but general requests to "make things better" are not helpful because they do not give ESET detailed enough information.

And i need to start refleshing the page for example google , and everithing is fine is the protocol filtering some time do the same when i do a speed test Maybe the protocol dont the detcect the conect correr or have some issue conecting to some pages fix that please Not all page are the same, some use advance encription other user nolmal encription ,other use other page format maybe that create a conflic, some page have a lot of errors this maybe cold afect Update the protocol filtering and add this engine smart ssl protocol filtering deep analise= this will analise any format page or encription if there is something not compatible or have any error or domains dns will automatic report you.
