Regardless of the security system in place, every dot on that map is someone actively fixing their system with MalwareBytes. The kicker is that all of those found to be infected are already running some form of security software, be it anti-virus tools like Avast, AVG or Symantec, or built-in defense systems like Windows Defender. To highlight their failings, it’s released a heat map of MalwareBytes users the world over, who have discovered malware infections using its scanning tool. But as 2017 ends, MalwareBytes is looking to step out of the toolsets of IT professionals, and into the hearts and minds of consumers the world over - by taking a swipe at its competitors. Traditionally, it’s been used as remediation tool by consumers, as a redundancy after their main anti-viral solution fails to prevent infection. MalwareBytes is an anti-malware application that offers manual scanning in its free version, and real-time protection with its premium option. MalwareBytes believes it should be your solution in these troubled times, and has thrown down the gauntlet for other anti-virus firms with a new tool and report that highlights how they are failing their customers. In the wake of the Equifax hack and growing mistrust of major anti-virus companies, it’s becoming harder and harder to know where to turn for your digital security.
