malware prevention
From the Field: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence for Malware Prevention
For many years, the main threat protection products were based on signatures. It's time to think beyond the traditional antivirus (AV). I recently participated in proof-of-concept (PoC) testing of the CyancePROTECT agent and was deeply impressed with the product's AI-driven malware prevention capabilities in comparison to more traditional approaches. The following are some key observations of the PoC outcomes. For those of you who probably don't know, heuristics has been a technology designed to proactively detect malicious code, without having to have a specific signature.
