Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware

This Malwarebytes security solution has been designed with a very clear goal in mind: to offer real-time protection against ransomware. Install Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware on your Windows PC and it will protect it against ransomware. You don’t have to do anything.

"Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware uses advanced proactive technology that monitors what ransomware is doing and stops it cold before it even touches your files. It has no shot at encrypting. And it does not rely on signatures or heuristics, so it’s light and completely compatible with antivirus," explained Marcin Kleczynski, Malwarebytes Co-founder and CEO.

Speaking about Marcin Kleczynski, he’s the one who introduced Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware and announced the Open Beta, way back in January 2016. The good news is that Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware has made it all the way up to Beta 8. The bad news is that it still isn’t out of Beta. So if you’re the type of person who is put off by a Beta tag, perhaps it would be better to get some other anti-ransomware solution.

Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware has a very simple interface, as you can see from the screenshots and the Quick Look video that accompanies this article. While the video does a fairly good job of presenting the interface, it fails to present Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware in action. No problem, that’s what this video is for. Check it out to see how Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware blocks some of the most common and destructive ransomware families out there.

Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware is free software.
