The trick works even if the Cylance engine previously concluded the same file was malicious before the benign strings were appended to it. The researchers took advantage of this and appended strings from a non-malicious file to a malicious one, tricking the system into thinking the malicious file is safe and avoiding detection. but so does Cylance, and a lot more samples.How did the researchers trick Cylance into thinking bad is good?Ĭylance’s machine-learning algorithm has been trained to favor a benign file, causing it to ignore malicious code if it sees strings from the benign file attached to a malicious file. Tho keep in mind, it misses samples other AVs already sigged ages ago. Oh yea, DeepArmor is ten times better than Cylance, considering it's AI can and is detecting doc exploits and scriptors.(the trial is currently sitting on my VM) Sure it's light, but there are lighter/better than it. Trust me, noone has an issue with Cylance cause of some made up bs with the CIA and bla bla, we all have an issue with it being supbar compared to other solutions while being twice the price. ESET NOD32 AV: top3 in fastest signatures in the market, you get exploit protection, you get a decent HIPS (comodo's HIPS is horrendous), as light or hell lighter than Cylance and you can get a license for 4 euros for a year for 1 device. Let's have an example of ESET instead of Cylance in your combo. When an AI driven AV that can't block anything else than exe's are missing 100% malicious exes, you have a problem. The money given to Cylance by the US Government is nothing but pocket change found under the cushions of their Corporate couches.Ĭlick to expand.but you have way better, faster, lighter options than Cylance.Īnd i'm not talking out of my ***, I/We have been comparing results of a lot of AVs including Cylance. Ps- If you see anyone posting regarding a conspiracy because of a few bucks thrown their way by In-Q-Tel, They've also been very smart at who they hire-last year they picked Brian Robins from AlienVault as a CFO.īut to answer your question, the vitriol you may be reading could be from some who have been wise to the marketing ability of C, and who have a native dislike of being considered Stupid. This cash was certainly put to work as I've personally gotten many targeted ads recently in various places about Cylance Smart AV. This June Cylance once again had a funding round (120 million USD thrown at them by Blackstone), and this cash was used primarily to promote the Home version. Needless to say there was an extreme difference in results. They also "allowed" members of the audience to supply their own malware (which made me, My Friends, and Ophelia just drool) to be tested. For this Tour Cylance supplied their own malware set, which subsequently was proved to be exceedingly Cherry-picked and bogus (ask Professor Google as this has been discussed here before). Initially the advertising was targeted at the Uber-Geek in emails and U-Geek publications, as well as the disgusting "Unbelievable Tour" promotions from 2016. Since inception, Cylance has been raising money by the bundle (I'm not taking trivia here! It's over 2 billion USD in Venture Capital) and has been using a bulk of it as self-promotion, all in anticipation of an eventual IPO.
