We have summarised the functionality of SecuLution and established Antivirus solutions in the video on the left and textually below.
Only software that you trust is now able to run in your network.

For details on the setup steps above, please refer to our online documentation:
For a number of years, professionally organised, enterprise-like structured criminal gangs emerged. One department develops, tests and modifies the malicious software until Antivirus solutions can not detect them anymore. Another spreads the code by e-mail, exploiting breaches in browsers or targeted attacks through company employees. The perpetrators gain multi-digit million range profits.
Driven by this commercialisation, malicious software has changed significantly. It is now less invasive to remain undetected for as long as possible. Thus it can infiltrate the victim's network longer and spread more selectively on sensitive parts of the systems. Most modern malware does not contain any viral (= self-spreading) or malicious function at all. This is, if necessary, only downloaded, in order to postpone a discovery by defense mechanisms for as long as possible.
Apart from whitelisting, there are no effective protective measures. This has been a recognised state of the art since the end of 2015.
Ransomware (also called "blackmail Trojan" or "crypto-trojan") encrypts the data on the hard drives of the victim. The code required for decryption is released after payment of a ransom. (Examples are WannaCry, Locky, TeslaCrypt, CryptoLocker, Crysis, zCrypt, Powerware, Petya, HydraCrypt, Cerba , RAA, CryptoWall und Gpcode.) Since modern Ransomware encrypts data securely cryptographically, a recovery of the data is only possible via a backup or paying the ransom. Which is not recommended.
Phishing software steals the victim's personal data (identity theft), which allows the perpetrator to access online payment systems or redirect financial transactions. (Examples are Cidex, Dridex, Shylock and Citadel.)
The resulting damages are in the double-digit million range annually.
Spyware allows unauthorised users to access the computer network and the victim's programs and data. The commercial interest of the attackers is economic espionage and data manipulation. (Examples are Flame, Stuxnet, AC / DC, Skywiper.)
Spyware usually does not replicate itself aggressively (virally) and therefore remains undetected by Virus-Scanners for a long time.
Viruses and worms are programs that usually limit the proper functioning of the computer. (Approximately 35,000 new variants are developed per day.)
They spread themselves aggressively to deal the greatest possible damage before they are discovered.
