Virtual machine Unpacking Engine (VUE)
Virtual machine Unpacking Engine (VUE) is new innovative technology featured in Custodia AntiVirus 2008. This new technology detects viruses even when disguised under multiple layers designed to evade detection by many of the anti-virus solutions in the market today.
What is packing? Packing is the process of placing layers over viruses to disguise them from being detected by many anti-virus software applications. Viruses may be packed with many layers and anti-virus software without strong unpacking capability cannot detect the virus, Trojan, or malware. As a result, the packed viruses are identified as new viruses and the anti-virus software vendors are required to update their database of virus definitions in order to remove the packed viruses.
VUE was developed to provide a fast and effective solution to detecting and removing packed viruses. In order for packed viruses to infect a computer system, they must first remove the many layers that have helped the viruses evade detection. VUE creates a virtual machine system environment for viruses to automatically remove their layers which are then detected and removed by Custodia AntiVirus.
Unknown Virus Scan & Clean Technology
Unknown Virus Scan Technology scans unknown DOS, email, script, macro and Windows viruses, keeping you one step ahead of unknown future viruses.
Pre-Login Scan
Some viruses are difficult to remove once you have logged into the Windows operating system. The Pre-Login Scan allows you to perform a virus scan and remove those viruses prior to launching Windows.
File Monitor
This feature scans all files before you open them, thereby eliminating the opportunity for viruses to be opened and destroying them before they can infect your computer system. File Monitor now offers two new modes: i) Smart Monitor; and ii) Forced Virus Deletion.
i) Smart Monitor: A user can choose to scan for viruses under one of three scenarios: file creation, modification, or execution. Scanning will occur automatically only when the scenario condition are met. Smart Monitor dramatically improves working efficiency and reduces the consumption of system resources.
ii) Forced Virus Deletion: When a running virus cannot be deleted because the system is using the file infected by it, a standard solution was to restart the computer and then delete the virus. Unfortunately, many viruses cannot be removed in this way. Once “Forced Virus Deletion” is enabled, the system is able to delete the running virus program without the need to restart the computer, thus solving the problem and removing the virus.
File Monitor Whitelist
File Monitor Whitelist is a feature that includes files and directories that are skipped and not scanned by Custodia AntiVirus. By adding trusted files and directories to the File Monitor Whitelist, you can improve the amount of time that it takes Custodia AntiVirus to scan your computer system.
Malicious Behavior Detection
This feature monitors all running application programs in the system to detect and report the behavior patterns of malicious code. Allows the user to authorize or reject suspicious activity.
Email Scan
Incoming emails (POP3) and outgoing emails (SMTP) are scanned for viruses and Custodia AntiVirus will alert you of any potential virus threats. Custodia AntiVirus currently only supports POP3 incoming and SMTP outgoing email protocols. The Email Scan feature helps to prevent certain Trojans from stealing your passwords and scans and cleans any outgoing emails before they are sent to ensure that you don\'t infect other computer users.
Script Blocking
This feature helps to protect your computer system when you are browsing the Internet by blocking certain malicious web scripts. If you visit a web site that contains high-risk web scripts, you will be alerted by Custodia AntiVirus and prompted for action.
Boot Records Monitor
This feature scans for viruses and other malicious files that reside in the boot records of floppy disks, CD-ROMs, or USB storage devices and blocks them from infecting your computer system.
System Reinforcement
System Reinforcement monitors and reinforces operating system vulnerabilities to defend against attacks and intrusions by malicious programs. Its functions mainly cover the following:
* Monitors system behaviors as well as the use of SetHook and LoadDriver by all programs;
* Monitors the system registry to prevent any unauthorized changes by unknown programs;
* Monitors and protects key processes of the system;
* Protects system files and prevents them from damage by unknown programs.
Application Protection
Application Protection can protect specified applications from attack by malicious programs. A user can apply rules to game software, instant messaging software, etc. to customize protection. Custodia AntiVirus provides users with eight rules:
* Anti-DLL Injection
* Anti-Code Injection
* Anti-Memory Modification
* Anti-Memory Read
* Prevent Suspension
* Prevent Termination
* Anti-Simulated Sending
* Anti-Simulated Key.
Application Access Control
Application Access Control monitors suspicious programs to limit their access to computer resources.
Program Startup Control
Program Startup Control allows users to monitor the startup process of programs, thus being able to intercept and prevent the execution of unknown malicious programs as well as detecting any modification of applications.
Hidden Process Detection
Hidden Process Detection can detect processes that cannot be seen in the Windows Task Manager that may contain malicious code such as rootkits.
Vulnerability Defense
If Windows updates are not installed and system vulnerabilities exist, Vulnerability Defense can help protect your computer system by alerting you of any potential attacks on any system vulnerabilities.
File Shredder
File Shredder allows you to protect your privacy by permanently deleting unwanted sensitive files through Windows Explorer. To permanently delete a file, simply right-click on the file and select File Shredder. Any files deleted by File Shredder cannot be recovered.
Embedded Scan for Other Programs
Custodia AntiVirus can provide added virus protection for third party applications such as instant messaging programs, Software management tools, and compression tools. The following thirty party applications are supported by Custodia AntiVirus:
* Microsoft Office 2000 and 2003
* Internet Explorer 5.0 and higher
* MSN Messenger
* Yahoo! Messenger
* AOL Instant Messenger
* FlashGet
* NetAnts
* Net Vampire
* WinZip
* WellGet
* WinRAR
Once Embedded Scan has been applied to these third party application programs, Custodia AntiVirus can automatically scan all files received through these programs for viruses and other malicious files.
Personal Firewall Key Features :
* Multi-User Account Management
* Trojan Identification Technology
* Trusted Zones
* IP Attack Tracking
* Module Test
* ARP Spoofing Defense
Multi-User Account Management
Custodia Personal Firewall provides two accounts for user management: i) an administrator account; and ii) a user account. A feature of Custodia Personal Firewall allows users to switch between the two types of accounts. The administrator account can execute and/or modify all personal firewall features and settings, while the user account cannot modify the personal firewall features and settings/rules, or to start/stop/exit the firewall software. To make changes to the personal firewall settings, the user will need the password assigned by the administrator when switching to the administrator account.
Trojan Identification Technology
The embedded \"Trojan Wall\" actively blocks Trojans, spyware, and malware from infecting your computer system and trying to gain access to your personal information. This feature adds peace of mind when conducting any online transactions. Through heuristic virus scan technology, when a program application connects to the Internet, Custodia Personal Firewall will scan the program. If the program/process is suspicious, the user will be alerted.
Trusted Zones
Custodia Personal Personal Firewall allows you to establish trusted sites or Zones, which can either allow or deny remote access to your computer system for file sharing and accessing system resources.
IP Attack Tracking
Custodia Personal Firewall will automatically analyze, locate and record the source IP address of a potential virus, Trojan, or malware attack on your computer system.
Module Test
Custodia Personal Firewall can control access to the Internet by all modules. When an application attempts to access the Internet, the firewall will check the authorization of the module to determine whether access approval has been granted. If not, access to the Internet will be denied. The Module Test is also effective in preventing Trojans from injecting into normal processes to gain access to the Internet.
ARP Spoofing Defense
ARP Spoofing occurs when a computer sends false ARP packets to a local area network in order to trick other computers and/or the LAN gateway to trust it. This is done either to prevent data from being sent or received from a certain computer, or to spy on the data that is being sent or received to that computer. Custodia Personal Firewall has improved its ARP Spoofing Defense in particular to this kind of attack. The settings in ARP Spoofing allows the firewall to intelligently choose which ARP packets to accept or reject.
Requirements:
Windows 98/Me/NT/2000/XP/Vista
