The ESET difference

DNA detections

Detection types range from very specific hashes to ESET DNA Detections, which are complex definitions of malicious behavior and malware characteristics.

While the malicious code can be easily modified or obfuscated by attackers, the behavior of objects cannot be changed so easily and ESET DNA Detections are designed to take advantage of this principle.

In-product sandbox

Today’s malware is often heavily obfuscated and tries to evade detection as much as possible. To see through this and identify the real behavior hidden underneath the surface, we use in-product sandboxing.

With the help of this technology, ESET solutions emulate different components of computer hardware and software to execute a suspicious sample in an isolated virtualized environment.

Scans files and blocks of data

Analyzes hundreds of different file formats (executables, installers, scripts, archives, documents and bytecodes, as well as blocks of data) in order to accurately detect embedded malicious components.

URL and IP address scanning

ESET Anti-Malware SDK also provides URL and IP address scanning to identify and block phishing sites and addresses containing dangerous payload.
