## Reviews

### "It has the typical features of antivirus but focused on ransomware." — 4.0/5

> **Andy** | *29 October 2018* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The key point is the protection in real time and is focused directly on the ransomware that is that it can cause great damages to the equipment partially or permanently, as well as the destruction of history and files that can not be used anymore protecting much the privacy of the user .
> 
> **Cons**: It may happen that it costs to analyze some ransomware or the analysis of it becomes complicated, however the rest of the totality of the functions and the different types of analysis show good results.
> 
> This product reinforces the security in the company, which is a key point so that it can achieve the objectives and for my part as a member of it apply and certify the use of this product, will allow to reinforce internal processes and ensure the correct operation of productive activities.
