Avira AntiVir ProActiv czyli coś nowego od Aviry(na razie do testów)
Avira AntiVir ProActive
What is Avira AntiVir ProActive?
Avira AntiVir ProActive is a new Avira technology for detecting malware based on its behavior. AntiVir ProActive is monitoring on-access those areas of your system, which are usually attacked by malware. All activities in the target areas are registered by sensors and reported to the rules base, to determine if the activities were indeed caused by malware. If there are activities of virulent origin, Avira AntiVir ProActive blocks them.
Avira AntiVir ProActive completes the existing signature-based, generic and heuristic detection processes, with an advanced method meant to effectively protect you against infection with unknown malware.
Please note, that due to its behavior-based approach, Avira AntiVir ProActive cannot guarantee 100% malware detection. It may happen that some malware is not detected or that some clean files are erroneously reported as malware.
Objectives of the beta test
Basically, the beta test has two objectives:
First, we need to know how stable and performing the system is. Avira AntiVir ProActive monitors numerous interfaces of the operating system. Thus, problems with other programs or with certain system configurations cannot be excluded. We would like the testers to report any crashes or serious loss in performance, relating to such incompatibilities, they might observe.
Secondly, we expect feedback about the detection performance of the program. For the beginning, the test program has just a basic set of rules. So it is to be expected, that only a few files will be reported as malware. Please turn your attention mainly to false positives, i.e. to programs falsely identified as malware. During this phase, the system sends us data, which help us enhance and fine-tune the set of rules (see also “Data transfer and data protection”). These extended rules sets will be made available in a further phase of the beta test.
Installation requirements
Please note that this beta product can be installed only on Windows XP, 32 Bit with SP 2 or above. A later beta version will also support Windows 2000, Windows Vista and Windows 7.
Uninstall any antivirus software from your system, before installing this beta version.
For the beginning, use only the firewall integrated in Windows XP.
Make sure that your PC is connected to the Internet during the beta test.
Data transfer and data protection
Avira AntiVir ProActive sends potentially dangerous rated files to an Avira Server. The affected files are exclusively executable programs and scripts. No emails, personal documents or similar data files are transferred. The transferred information is exclusively used for a closer malware analysis and for improving the rules set.
The data transfer is absolutely anonymous and does not allow any conclusion on the sender. Even indirect details, such as protocol or the computer’s IP address, are not stored.
Only a small group of Avira malware researchers can access the transmitted files, to analyze the malware, in a hermetically isolated network. The data will not be forwarded to third parties.
With the installation of the beta version, you give Avira permission to perform an automatic background transfer of the files being detected as potentially dangerous, to its backend system. Similar to the usage of an online backup solution, there is no infringement when uploading copyrighted files.
