In general, we had the impression after evaluating the programs from our sample that antivirus software developers artificially inflate their features or extras, since, in comparison to dedicated software, these add-ons are almost always of inferior quality.ДЄccordingly, we find the 'minimalism' in Malwarebytes's offering somewhat refreshing. This is more bearable than the absence of real-time email or webcam protection.

Malwarebytes does offer a special subscription package that includes a VPN, however, if you're expecting a password manager, parental controls, performance tuning, an adblocker, or cloud backup, you'll likely be disappointed. In addition to the lack of certain facets of real-time protection (email and webcam), the program is also missing a file shredder and a firewall, both of which are fairly standard among the antivirus programs from our sample. Unfortunately, in comparison to some other antivirus programs, this is not that much. What you see in the main dashboard, is, for all intents and purposes, what you get. Unlike ESET, Malwarebytes doesn't have any 'hidden' features stashed away in its sub-menus. Webcam protection, which carefully monitors which programs have access to your webcam, is also missing. Rounding things out, Exploit Protection identifies malicious software that takes advantage of weaknesses and errors in your system.Дespite all of the above, the program lacks email protection: In other antivirus programs, you can set whether incoming and/or outgoing emails are scanned for threats or viruses. Ransomware Protection defends you against so-called extortion Trojans, which take your files or folders hostage (by encrypting them), only freeing them after you pay a hefty ransom. Malware and PUP Protection wards off programs that would harm your computer, such as viruses, adware, and other unwanted software. Web Protection alerts you to dangerous websites, phishing attempts, and other online hustles.
