Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit vs Top Antivirus/Exploit Mitigation Products

[pbust]

As you may be aware some time ago we commissioned renowned exploit researcher @Kafeine to test MBAE against all current exploit kits in the wild. That test is available from Kafeine's blog (or PDF).

 

Since then we've gotten a lot of feedback of people wanting to see MBAE's performance against more types of exploits and also to see the performance of other exploit mitigation techniques included in top-tier security products. For this we commissioned PCSecurityLabs who has just published their report Remote Code Execution Exploit Mitigations for Popular Applications (PDF).

 

The result summary is as follows:

 

Just to be clear, even though this is a sponsored test, PCSL made the sole decision on the testing methodology, which vulnerabilities to test and which payloads as well as the scoring and ranking criteria.

Ah,  but when will it be officially released.

[pbust]

Soon, very soon!

[peters4000]

hehe hurry .... I want to check if the auto update works on my computer.

The plan is o publish it in different stages during a week or two, first only on the Malwarebytes website for new downloads, then for a few hours every day for automatic upgrades. The objective of doing it this way is to make sure everything is smooth before upgrading the entire user base.

Ok Pedro, I will hang on and let you know if the upgrade works for me.
