herdProtect Anti-Malware Scanner is a very good, effective and fast anti-virus scanner, designed to protect our computer against malicious software (malicious applications, scripts, etc.). It is a perfect complement to standard antivirus programs due to the fact that during its operation it uses as many as 68 scanning engines located in the so-called cloud. Importantly, herdProtect Anti-Malware Scanner is designed to detect potential threats - the tool does not allow to remove detected pests.

During scanning, it analyzes all key Windows components, such as running processes, drivers and autostart components. Thanks to the use of solutions from leading manufacturers of security software, herdProtect Anti-Malware Scanner allows for effective detection of all types of threats - both known and not yet classified (heuristic analysis). The tool can detect pests based on patterns of behaviour.

Due to the fact that the program is based on a solution located in the cloud, its operation requires an active connection to the Internet. Importantly, every connection between our computer and the manufacturer's servers is tunnelled and encrypted. In addition, all files transferred to the cloud are devoid of metadata with your private information.

Among the scanning engines used by herdProtect Anti-Malware Scanner we will find Avast!, AVG, BitDefender, BullGuard, Comodo, ESET, F-Secure, GData, Kaspersky, McAfee, Panda, Sophos, Trend Micro and many others. The full list can be found on the official website of the programme.
