Emsisoft Anti-Malware

With all the data theft attempts and malware lurking around in the online world, cybersecurity has become a major concern not just in the enterprise environment but also for regular computer users.

Specifically designed for home users and home offices, Emsisoft Anti-Malware delivers a powerful and robust defense system against malicious files, phishing attempts, ransomware attacks, virus infections, and so on.

Relying on an award-winning protection engine, Emsisoft Anti-Malware brings layered protection to the table, with real-time security, content filtering, an active firewall and an on-demand scanner .   The application features on-going web protection against all kinds of modern threats, with a file guard, a behavior blocker and an anti-ransomware tool that keeps the entire system under surveillance.

While the behavior blocker keeps an eye out for suspicious files, the file guard helps you detect potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) and identify malware before it infects the system. On the other hand, online security is guaranteed by the web protection module, which automatically blocks malicious websites and credential phishing attempts.

It is recommended you carry out system scanning periodically to make sure no malicious files are around. Like most security solutions, Emsisoft Anti-Malware also comes with various scan modes.

While the quick scan only analyzes active programs and searches for traces of malicious activity, the so-called “Malware Scan” runs a more thorough analysis, analyzing all the places that malware typically infects.

Custom scans are also possible and, should you choose this option, Emsisoft Anti-Malware will allow you to configure your own scan settings.

Scheduling any of these system scans is possible on a recurring basis.

Emsisoft Anti-Malware combines real-time protection with an anti-ransomware module, on-demand scans, an integrated firewall and content filtering. Acting on so many levels, it can provide solid layered protection against threats of all kinds, which turns it into a comprehensive security tool for the home user.

While designed mainly for home use, it is also available for the business environment, with editions ready to satisfy the needs of small to large-size organizations.
