Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit Premium

Does my ESET Smart Security provide the same protection as does the Malwarebytes anti-exploit premium product?

I think it works quite differently. For one, it does not work with signature database files.

From their website :

 

Blocks dangerous exploit-based malware and prevents the damage it can do

 

Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit Premium protects you from zero-day exploits targeting browser and application vulnerabilities. Its proprietary technology guards you in that critical period between the release of a new exploit and its security patch. And, unlike antivirus products, Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit Premium proactively prevents the exploit from installing its payload. Before it can do damage.

 

How it works for you

• Four layers of exploit protection (application hardening, protection against Operating System security bypasses, memory caller protection, application behavior protection)
• Proactive technology
• Protection for older Windows operating systems, including Windows XP
• Ability to add and manage custom shields
• No signature database
• Small footprint
• Anti-malware and antivirus compatible
• Blocks unknown and known exploit kits

What it does for you

• Protects browsers, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Opera
• Protects browser components, including Java and Flash
• Defends against drive-by download attacks
• Shields vulnerable applications, including Microsoft Office, PDF readers, and media players
