Download Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware 0.9.4.299 Beta

One of the most annoying types of malware has to be ransomware. This encrypts personal documents and only releases them after an amount has been handed over. There are already several programs on the market that can protect against this and now that Malwarebytes has acquired the necessary knowledge with the acquisition of EasySync Solutions, they will also do their part. Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware monitors the computer and intervenes in ‘suspicious behavior’ before the ransomware has a chance to encrypt files. The program would require few resources and should be able to run alongside existing anti-virus software without any problems. Malwarebytes has not yet released anything about a possible price.

Introducing the Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware Beta

Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware uses advanced proactive technology that monitors what ransomware is doing and stops it cold before it even touches your files. It has no shot at encryption. And it does not rely on signatures or heuristics, so it’s light and completely compatible with antivirus.

These methods proved to be so successful at stopping ransomware that Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware detected all of the latest and most dangerous ransomware variants right out of development and into beta 1.

This means when running Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware, you do not have to worry about getting infected by CryptoLocker, CryptoWall, or CTBLocker. Better yet, it can defeat new ransomware the moment it is released, proactively protecting you from ransomware that’s never even been seen before.
