NOD32 Ransomware Protection?

[tecknomage 0]

I have ESET NOD32 v9.0.349.14 64bit

 

Any special protections against ransomware

With v9 you should be protected against ransomware as well as other threats to maximum extent. For information about technologies employed by ESET, please refer to hxxp://static3.esetstatic.com/fileadmin/Images/INT/Docs/Other/ESET-Technology-Overview.pdf.

if we are using lower version of NOD32 but updated its virus database to the latest, can we be protected from Ransomeware?

[Marcos 5,074]

Yes and no, it depends on several factors. With ESET Smart Security, you'd be protected even better as its network scanner can block malicious communication at the network level as well.

We have site license. We can install ESET Smart Security as well. Should we use ESET Smart Secuirty instead of NOD32 version 9 for better protection? If yes, what version of ESET Smart Security should we use for better protection against virus, malware especially ransomeware?

If you can use ESET Smart Security then use it. It protects better against Filecoders as its network scanner can block communication with attacker's servers and thus prevent encryption. As for Endpoint Security, this functionality is present only in Endpoint Security v6, not in v5.

Hello lemon866,

The "next generation" term was regarding our business products, thus version 7 (ESET Endpoint Security 7 and ESET Endpoint Antivirus 7).

As for home products, the feature is already present in v10, which is available on some markets since a few weeks ago and will be released globally soon.
