  • Thanks for replying in detail. The text on the diagram (The BitDefender Scanning Sequence) on the page 7 of the document "active_virus_control_wp.pdf" is not clear, it is blur. Please send the clear graphics of the detection sequence.

    Hello :)


    That is the consequence of shrinking the screenshot. Please magnify to 200% in your PDF reader and you will be able to read the text.


    Take care.

  • What about File Emulation technique and how it is different from Behavioral Detection?

    Hi :)


    The Behavioral Detection uses the File Emulation technique and runs a file in a virtual environment. After this, the module is observing the behavior(what resources needs in order to run, what is the active folder, which registry keys is creating).


    We have some strict rules set for the module and if the threshold is reached, the file will be automatically blocked.


    Take care.

    Hello :)


    I don't have another screenshot, that document is old.


    Read the text and you will understand the mechanism.


    Take care.
