Updates to operating systems, applications and drivers appear every day. But don't forget about viruses, which develop in parallel with new trends in software. They are difficult to detect, but a product has emerged that claims to better protect the OS and user data. Let's take a look at what Cezurity Antivirus Scanner is.
About the program
Cezurity Antivirus Scanner is a new software in the field of antivirus protection services. The program supports full device scanning and real-time protection.
The product implements new approaches in detecting and treating virus threats: instead of signatures, databases are used, the tables of which contain file identifiers, characteristics and their digital signatures - MD5 and SHA-1 (sum hash). If the data does not match, the antivirus offers to replace the files with safe ones.
Attention! Do not allow multiple antiviruses to run simultaneously. This will lead to application conflicts and system instability!
Cloud technology also works - operations and request processing take place on the company’s servers. This fact ensures minimal load on the user’s work machine and stability of the antivirus. This leads to one drawback: the application requires a high-speed Internet connection to work.
The user interface is extremely simple, because... There is no variety of functions in this scanner. The design looks cheap and frivolous. If at the initial stage this was written off as a beta version, then five years after the release this design is laughable.
It is alarming that after clicking on the “Support” button, the page of the social network Vkontakte opens. In the discussion of the topic, you can get an answer to your question, if, of course, you find a specialist online. Otherwise you will have to wait. It seems that Cezurity Antivirus Scanner is a graduation project of a technical university student.
Security software review
We have before us unique software that can raise the level of user data protection to the maximum level. In addition, the utility scans the system online and constantly monitors processes in order to identify potential dangers in advance.
The advantage is the fact that the antivirus does not store threat signatures in the database (as competitive products do), but SHA-1 / MD5 checksums, which can be used to more accurately determine a virus masquerading as a system file. As soon as the software finds a discrepancy in the characteristics, it advises replacing the elements with safer ones.
You can download Cezurity Antivirus Scanner for free in Russian by following this link.
By installing this scanner, you will be automatically connected to the Sensa system, a cloud-based antivirus that can detect even those malicious scripts that your security software could not find. The only drawback of this approach is the need for an Internet connection.
Please note that Cezurity may conflict with similar programs, so it is better to disable them for a while or completely uninstall them.
In the screenshot above you can see how simple the scanner interface is. It doesn't have dozens of premium features that other security apps boast. Many users, upon seeing such a primitive design, immediately “demolish” the utility, assuming its inconsistency and inability to solve problems.
Another strange thing I consider is the fact that after clicking on the “Support” button you find yourself not on the official website, but on a page on Vkontakte. And there you cannot always wait for a quick answer to the question posed. Somehow this is all wrong...
But among the advantages, I can note the absence of any advertising, minimal consumption of system resources (since scanning takes place in the “cloud”) and absolutely free distribution.
Main functionality
Let's look at the main features announced by the developers:
- detection of all types of threats (Trojans, keyloggers, bootkits, worms, ad viruses);
- removal and treatment of infected objects;
- Conducting quick and complete checks;
- setting up an automatic system scanning schedule.
On top of everything else, it’s worth adding that it’s completely free to distribute. There aren't even any advertisements.
When is the program effective?
First of all, Cezurity developers recommend using the scanner to solve noticeable problems: pop-up windows, third-party advertising or malfunctions of Internet resources (blocking sites and content, slow loading on a high-speed connection). The service also removes hidden programs that perform suspicious activity on the Internet or directly in the computer OS, disrupting its operation.
Among other things, Cezurity antivirus scanner, reviewed by both beginners and experienced users, should find difficult-to-detect rootkits, dangerous browser extensions and unknown threats.
However, today many users who have installed a scanner would be more happy to get rid of this program on their device than even a virus that previously interfered with its normal functioning.
Performance Review
Well, now let’s look at the effectiveness of this product. The application is at the stage of formation and popularization, but has already managed to collect a lot of polar opposite reviews. For the average user, the visible advantages are obvious: free, fast work, clear interface and unobtrusiveness. But behind this cosmetics lies powerlessness in detecting and treating viruses that are not classified as new or particularly dangerous.
Advice! We recommend reading the article: “Review of the Ads Killer extension.”
Having studied thematic forums, it became known that some files that pose a threat do not evoke any emotions in our “defender”. But when we launched it, we became infected with an adware virus (intentionally). But even after displaying advertising banners on all web pages and automatically launching the browser, the antivirus was silent. And after a full check of the device there was no concern.
So, Cezurity Antivirus Scanner reacts selectively to ad viruses, Trojans and unwanted software and removes only what it wants.
Based on bitter experience, Cezurity Antivirus Scanner cannot be trusted. I recommend moving on to the next point immediately.
Method #2: using an uninstaller program
Note. We consider uninstalling the antivirus and additionally cleaning the system using the Revo Uninstaller utility.
1. In the Revo Uninstaller panel, click on the Cezurity scanner icon.
2. In the top row of buttons, click “Delete”.
3. Perform the standard uninstall provided by Cezurity.
4. Click the “Advanced” button in the “Uninstall Mode” section.
5. Click “Search”.
6. In the new window (Found partitions), click “Delete” to remove the remaining antivirus software entries from the registry. Then click "Done".
7. Similarly, delete the antivirus files and folders that the built-in uninstaller did not remove.
Successful uninstallation of the Cezurity Scanner program!
Hello, friends Today we’ll talk about a good program called Cezurity Antivirus Scanner, which is aimed at protecting your computer from viruses. Well, that is, it’s an antivirus, although it’s not particularly popular.
What can Cezurity Antivirus Scanner do? It can search for viruses, Trojans and other evil spirits in the background, and even finds some bootkits. By default, the antivirus scans the system every 4 hours, but this can be changed in the settings. By the way, there aren’t too many settings, which is a plus - it’s easy to understand even for a beginner.
Both full and quick virus scans are available. I like the fact that the program is free and at the same time belongs to an innovative new class of programs - cloud-based. That is, the antivirus carries out part of its calculations on the Internet, without loading the computer. By the way, the interface itself works very quickly, this is also a plus
But there is also a minus, it’s really small, the Internet speed should not be very low, since after all, cloud technologies work precisely with the help of the Internet. But, I think that now almost everyone has high-speed Internet, so this is unlikely to be a problem
Another useful thing about Cezurity Antivirus Scanner is that it does not use signatures to find threats. Instead, exact file characteristics and fingerprints (hashes) are compared, and all this happens in the cloud.
An interesting point is that support or help (buttons in the program itself) lead to links to the social network VKontakte
Briefly about what Cezurity Antivirus Scanner can do:
- finds all viruses - both Trojans and rootkits, keyloggers (these are spyware);
- removal of malicious objects from critical areas of the system;
- The computer is almost not loaded during testing;
- according to the developers, the level of detection of threats is higher, and this is commendable, given that the product is free;
The appearance of the program is quite simple and stylish:
Here are the program settings, here, as I already wrote, everything is minimal, and this is good, there is only everything you need:
You can exclude some objects, and also, what is also important, check the box to detect potential threats; I advise you to enable this option.
