dan786 Posted December 2, 2011 ID:500453 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Looking at prevx /webroot , trend micro , panda cloud. I think mbam should be cloud based to help detection and removal. What ever the program finds while scanning it would send it to the cloud to be determined to be safe or not. The computers that has mbam cloud would already have the new things to find because there no need for downloads update, so the turn around is faster. With less overhead on the pc due to no updates.

The concept of "Cloud" computing is really just a marketing scheme with a lemming following. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDKWatMNShouldBe Posted December 2, 2011 ID:500567 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Wouldn't it be better if there were signitures and cloud?Like for a MBAM update it comes every couple hours.Especially for real time protection it would be nice.

Staff shadowwar Posted December 2, 2011 Staff ID:500579 Share Posted December 2, 2011 One of the things with cloud based defs.. What if the computer is offline? Also all it would take is malware to block our servers and then the cloud would be useless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David H. Lipman Posted December 2, 2011 ID:500583 Share Posted December 2, 2011 The Cloud concept is hype and marketing. Nothing more than a buzz word.Focus your attention on the ability to get new signatures to detect and mitigate new threats. Malwarebytes will focus their attention on supplying the signatures, doing so frequently and with relative high bandwidth downloads even when numerous clients are requesting updates. As long as Malwarebytes does this, as they have been doing, you, the client will have whats needed.Malwarebytes will address what is known as Quality of Service (QoS) as well as concepts such as differential updates to make updating easier.

DarkSnakeKobra Posted December 2, 2011 ID:500634 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Don't forget that if the server(s) go down like what happened to Sony then nobody is protected. Personally, I would not want to completely rely on the cloud for protection as there are so many things that could happen that would make your protection useless.
