Scheduled Scans

Description: ESET Sandbox + ESET Auto SandBox

 

Details ; I Want add ESET sandBox  + ESET auto SandBox like avast sandbox +  auto sandbox

The avast! Sandbox is a special security feature which allows you to run potentially suspicious applications automatically in a completely isolated environment. Programs running within the sandbox have limited access to your files and system, so there is no risk to your computer or any of your other files. This feature is connected to the FileRep cloud feature which identifies new files for additional analysis. So now we are able to warn you even before we have had the opportunity to examine this malware in our Virus Lab.

Im not sure how but eset does use some sandbox technologies @Marcos might be able to explain them more. Obviously currently eset doesnt allow users to manually run things in a sandbox

alasmi8 you may want to review https://www.eset.com/int/about/technology/

I am sure Marcos can add additional information.

There are currently no plans to have a sandbox like Sandboxie. However, Advanced heuristics runs files in a virtual environment and compares the characteristics and behavior with detections that "describe" what is considered malicious. Moreover, business users can take advantage of ESET Dynamic Defense which is an actual cloud sandbox. Also we're working on a sandboxed scanner which should be one of the upcoming additions in ESET's products.

I think ESET Self protection weak

 

otherwise , any malware tool can remove eset products from compter.

I don't think so. For instance, Windows Defender doesn't have any at all.

Microsoft added Tamper Protection in Win 10 1903. Oddly, it has to be manually enabled.

I keep looking for a published bypass if it, but so far so good for Microsoft. It also appears to "have held its own" against the latest and greatest version of Trickbot which tried its darnedest to disable it:

These new methods perform the following steps, with most, if not all, being blocked by TamperProtection if enabled:

Such can not be said for MalwareBytes or Sophos.

Do you honestly think any intelligent/responsible company/organization would reveal it's future plans (in detail) on a public forum?

One good security measure people often overlook is setting a password for eset settings

Sorry don't mean to sound rude, Its nothing personal 😂

Sandbox! Like avast!  when was the last time you visited avast's forum, more issues then ever before,  crippled add-ons that don't do a thing but causing problems.

avast sandbox is pure GARBAGE👎BSOD's, freezes and leaks  and its getting worse every update, I just moved from avast after 20 years.

ESET is great as is I wouldn't change a thing and avast use to be good until became  bloatware full of useless add-ons that causing more grief then good.

Don't ask for something you will regret.

 

 ESET has more goods than enough , live it alone 😀

Guys, please avoid using expressive words. No matter what software you take, be it OS, AV, or whatever, each has some bugs and issues that the vendor should attempt to fix as soon as possible.

I never thought to state windows 10 now also has its own sandbox although its not included in the home version of windows and some system requirements are required

[URBAN0 14]

My apology. I get to aggressive with my opinions 😉

I dont think eset will launch a  seperate sandbox and marcos has said there are currently no plans. Eset tends to focus on the main things which is why a lot of people prefer it as some AVs offer too many extras the system becomes slow. So I hope if they ever decided to it became optional.

As mentioned before though, eset does use sandbox technologies e.g. running unknown things through one to check for suspicious activity. Also as you mentioned if you are on the latest windows 10 pro or enterprise and have the right hardware you already have access to a sandbox courtesey of windows

I'm not sure if this was suggested before or is already a functional feature that I don't see it but I just came from Outpost Firewall PRO and there was a small feature that was need and I think ESET could do something similar.

Because we do change or updated/upgraded software, sometimes some of the entries  are no longer valid or the changes resulting in triggering different part of firewall leaving the old entries useless,  would be need to have "purge" function like Outpost did to get rid of none existent or old entries, if that makes sense.

We will probably add the date/time of last rule application which will help you find obsolete rules.

Is there still a possibility that the firewall rules will be made more user friendly in the future?

I used to have it set to manual but use automatic now but was looking at maybe going back - However sometimes I had to play around with rules and it was hard to do this because the design was not user friendly, mainly because the firewall judges rules by an order. Allowing them to be organised by names and having an icon to represent the program certainly would make this easier to use. Also the fact that "Allow communication for" comes before the name of the program makes it much harder with the text not needed as it could just start with "Chrome" rather than "Allow communication for Chrome."

Sorry I do know this has been brought up a few times.

[Marcos 5,074]

Firewall rules will continue to be evaluated in the order they appear in the list. In old versions (like v3/v4), they were evaluated from less general rules to more general rules and blocking rules had priority over permissive rules, however, this approach had issues which were solved by the current system. Other than that, firewall should be improved in the future for better user experience.

Pardon me if this topic has already been discussed here or somewhere else on the forum

Description: Protect folders using the HIPS module

Details: Currently HIPS can protect specific files from modifications which I personally think is one of the coolest feature but the same can't be done for folders. I wanna protect my important folders from ransomwares or any other programs from modifying the contents of it. Like normal HIPS rules for files, user should be able to set whether ESET would ask the user for permission or always deny modification. Many other AVs have implemented this with their Ransomware protection module. ESET probably has the best and most customizable HIPS module of all the consumer AVs out there but it's missing this important feature at the moment. It should be one of the top priorities. I guess it won't be hard to implemented this.

Hello,

I know this new version of ISS released 12.2.29.0. I'm on 12.2.23.0, do I have to manually download the latest version in order to upgrade or eventually ISS will notify me and eventually the upgrade can be done directly through the program

 

Thank you 😉

 

OK, It seems I got my answer, It shows in program itself that there is an update.

 

Thanks again
