Cool Features:
Malwarebytes has powerful features. Protection against ransomware and exploit protection are built in. Real-time detection actively monitors for malicious activity and web protection warns against dangerous sites. Malwarebytes is unique because it ignores antiquated viruses from years ago to keep the product nimble. This is an antivirus that focuses on the threats of today rather than years and years ago. Personally I had the DNS Locker virus on my computer and Malwarebytes was one of the few antivirus products which quarantined it.

Cool Features:
Avast implements intelligent antivirus for detecting threats, viruses, malware, spyware, ransomware, and phishing attacks. A cool feature of Avast is the Wi-Fi Inspector. Wi-Fi inspector checks your router configuration to prevent threats on that front. Avast leverages the CyberCapture feature. Cyber Capture provides real-time threat detection. Questionable files found on your PC are sent to the Avast Threat Labs to be analyzed by our experts. These files will be quarantined if they are determined to be hazardous by the Avast Threat Labs. The Avast Passwords feature allows you to remember just one Master Password. Avast Passwords will remember all the other passwords across all devices! Avast has its own browser if you want it. The SafeZone Browser is a custom browser designed to enhance security for web browsing, banking, and shopping. See other features at Avast.com.

Business / Endpoint Info:
Malwarebytes has burst onto the scene as a business antivirus force. They have done this in a relatively short amount of time all things considered. Their Endpoint Security product does not disappoint. Endpoint Security defends against ransomware, malware, zero-day exploits, PUPs, adware and more. The software blocks access to known malicious IP addresses so that end users on the network are proactively protected from downloading malware, hacking attempts, redirects to malicious websites, and malvertising. It is definitely worth noting the Breach Remediation feature. This is a crucial technology for today's threatening cyber security world where even hostile nations attempt to hack companies. Breach Remediation hunts for advanced threats and minimizes re-imaging due to infection. Perhaps the most crucial detail is the gathering of and displaying of forensic evidence for analyzing failed hack attempts or even the dreadful successful hack. Control it all from a single Management Console. |
Business / Endpoint Info:
Avast Endpoint Protection is useful for small office networks up around 200 computers. The entry level product does not protect a server FYI. Endpoint Protection is only for workstations. You can do Remote Management from the administration console. From the console you can deploy, manage, and update the managed clients running on the network. Some of the other features include scheduling scan jobs, running reports, and monitoring network activity. If you want features like email security, file server security, etc you will need the Endpoint Protection Plus version. |
