Else it won't share practically anything. About telemetry: only share suspicious samples if you allow the option, and some minimum data if you allow it.They do offer service to many federal/national agencies, but they got their fundings to start from private investors/organizations. No, it's not CIA funding, or funded by any government, according to them.Also compatible with complements (anti-exe, OSArmor, though not needed?) Cylance is fully compatible with others antivirus, though another antivirus is not needed.They provide an excellent solution that blocks all emerging threats up to 25 months before they were even detected. Yes, there is a possibility to whitelist. Cylance Antivirus is one of the first companies that offer software with machine learning, artificial intelligence, and algorithmic science to prevent even the most advanced threats and viruses.Interesting mentioned facts to point out: I had a conference yesterday with a Cylance's engineer, and we discussed about the corporate edition. I'm emboldened by the fact you can turn off ALL file submission without risking security, and that they have seemingly decided to forego telemetry gathering and intrusive logging. However the CIA seed money amounts to peanuts now compared to the 500million+ valuation of Cylance, as evidenced by their 800 employees and giant new office. I was super-skeptical at first, largely because of the initial CIA seed money. It might even be enough using Chrome and Google's own site protection, along with just a malware blocking DNS. Cylance might be a perfect solution for those under those conditions. Since Heimdal is better than most AV HTTP/s scanners, it's a better choice IMO.įor some people, for example those with ASUS Trend AiProtection routers, Gryphon Secure Router (ESET/Zvelo), Cujo, Dojo, Norton Sphere, F-Secured Safe Router, Bit Defender box, they certainly would be totally fine running only Cylance on their Windows boxes because the URL scanning heavy lifting is on the router/UTM. Cylance paired with Heimdal should be really good as Heimdal would pick up the slack of Cylance not utilizing HTTP/HTTPS scanning technology. I don't want URL scanners, phishing protection, password managers, system cleanup tools or any of that rubbish. I actually like the fact it doesn't have 'extra' garbage. It examines every file activity on your system, even Windows system processes in some cases. We're not finding *ANY* telemetry coming off this thing, which is surprising but the SIEM is still pointed at it for more examination. We're testing Cylance (consumer edition) in the lab.
