Special Features


Containment

  • Authenticates the integrity of every program before allowing it to load into your computer's memory

  • Cloud based behavior analysis helps identify zero-day malware before traditional antivirus
  • Alerts you every time an unknown or untrusted applications attempts to run or install
  • Prevents unauthorized modification of critical operating system files and registry entries

Viruscope

  • Monitors the activities of processes running on your computer and alerts you if their actions could potentially threaten your privacy and/or security
  • Ability to reverse potentially undesirable actions of software without necessarily blocking the software entirely


Host Intrusion Prevention System

  • Virtually Bulletproof protection against root-kits, inter-process memory injections, key-loggers and more
  • Monitors the activities of all applications and processes on your computer and allows executables and processes to run if they comply with the prevailing security rules
  • Identifies suspicious actions taken by processes running on your computer and generates alerts, enabling you to quickly revert the effects of malicious actions that may compromise your security and privacy
    • Blocks the activities of malicious programs by halting any action that could cause damage to your operating system, system-memory, registry keys or personal data.
    • Enables advanced users to enhance their security measures by quickly creating custom policies and rulesets using the powerful rules interface.

      Comodo Client Security - Extended Features


      Highly Configurable Security Rules Interface

       

      Comodo Client Security offers more control over security settings than ever before. Users can quickly set granular Internet access rights and privileges on a global or per application basis using the flexible and easy to understand GUI. This version also sees the introduction of preset security policies which allow you to deploy a sophisticated hierarchy of firewall rules with a couple of mouse clicks.

       

      Application Behavior Analysis

       

      Comodo Client - Security features an advanced protocol driver level protection - essential for the defense of your PC against Trojans that run their own protocol drivers.

       

      Cloud Based Behavior Analysis

       

      Comodo Client Security features cloud based analysis of unrecognized files, in which any file that is not recognized and not in Comodo's white-list will be sent to Comodo Instant Malware Analysis (CIMA) server for behavior analysis. Each file is executed in a virtual environment on Comodo servers and tested to determine whether it contains any malicious code. The results will be sent back to your computer in around 15 minutes.


      Event logging


      Comodo Client Security features a vastly improved log management module - allowing users to export records of Antivirus, Firewall and Advanced Protection activities according to several user-defined filters. Beginners and advanced users alike are greatly benefited from this essential troubleshooting feature.


      Memory Firewall Integration


      Comodo Client Security now includes the buffer-overflow protection original featured in Comodo Memory Firewall. This provides protection against drive-by-downloads, data theft, computer crashes and system damage.


      'Training Mode' and 'Clean PC' Mode


      These modes enable the firewall and host intrusion prevention systems to automatically create 'allow' rules for new components of applications you have decided to trust, so you won't receive pointless alerts for those programs you trust. The firewall learns how they work and only warn you when it detects truly suspicious behavior.


      Application Recognition Database (Extensive and proprietary application safe list)


      The Firewall includes an extensive white-list of safe executables called the 'Comodo Safe-List Database'. This database checks the integrity of every executable and the Firewall alerts you of potentially damaging applications before they are installed. This level of protection is new because traditionally firewalls only detect harmful applications from a blacklist of known malware - often-missing new forms of malware as might be launched in day zero attacks.


      The Firewall is continually updated and currently over 1,000,000 applications are in Comodo Safe list, representing virtually one of the largest safe lists within the security industry.


      Self Protection against Critical Process Termination


      Viruses and Trojans often try to disable your computer's security applications so that they can operate without detection. CCS protects its own registry entries, system files and processes so malware can never shut it down or sabotage the installation.


      Containment as a security feature


      Comodo Client Security's 'Containment' is an isolated operating environment for unknown and untrusted applications. Because they are virtualized, applications running in the container cannot make permanent changes to other processes, programs or data on your 'real' system. Comodo have also integrated auto-containment directly into the security architecture of CCS to complement and strengthen the Firewall, Advanced Protection, Containment and Antivirus modules.


      Submit Suspicious Files to Comodo


      Are you the first victim of a brand new type of spyware? Users can help combat zero-hour threats by using the built in submit feature to send files to Comodo for analysis. Comodo then analyzes the files for any potential threats and update our database for all users.

       

      Device Control


      CCS allows you full control over which type of external devices, such as USB pen drives and hard drives, can be connected to endpoints. Allow selected device class or block them all.
