## THE CHALLENGE

![ ](https://www.manageengine.com/malware-protection/images/shield-icon-mini.svg)

## Threats are evolving. So should your anti-malware software

Antivirus signatures won’t protect you from evasive threats that slip past by hiding in registry or launching as system processes. Attackers are constantly on the lookout for vulnerabilities to exploit and modern attacks spread rapidly, infecting endpoint after endpoint in a matter of minutes. To truly protect your environment, you need to stop malware, from its delivery to lateral movement, and recover compromised endpoints fast. ManageEngine Malware Protection Plus is an anti malware software with next-gen antivirus (NGAV) features equipped to handle just that.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What is the difference between traditional antivirus and NextGen Antivirus (NGAV)?

Traditional antivirus solely utilizes signature-based detection, scanning files for known malware patterns. Next Gen Antivirus (NGAV) uses AI/ML-driven behavioral analysis to detect unknown threats, including zero-day attacks, fileless malware, and ransomware.

### How does Malware Protection Plus detect threats?

Malware Protection Plus employs a combination of AI/ML algorithms, behavioral detection, and real-time threat analysis. These mechanisms enable the detection of unknown threats and fileless attacks without patient zero.

### Is Anti-ransomware included in Malware Protection Plus?

Yes, anti-ransomware features are a subset of NGAV, focusing specifically on detecting and mitigating ransomware attacks. Malware Protection Plus offers protection coverage for all threats, including ransomware attacks.

### Can antivirus software remove malware?

Yes. Most antivirus software is designed to detect, block, and remove malware. However, effectiveness depends on how up-to-date the software is. Some advanced threats may require specialized anti-malware tools for complete removal.

### Is anti-malware the same as antivirus?

They are related but not identical. Antivirus was originally designed to stop viruses, while anti-malware targets a broader range of threats such as ransomware, spyware, trojans, and adware. Modern security solutions usually combine both for comprehensive protection.

### Do I really need an antivirus program?

Yes. Cyberthreats are evolving rapidly, and relying only on built-in protection may not be enough. An antivirus or malware protection program provides real-time defense, safer browsing, email protection, and stronger safeguards for your data and identity.

### What is malware protection software?

Malware protection software detects, blocks, and removes malicious programs like viruses, ransomware, spyware, and trojans. It safeguards your devices and data in real time by preventing harmful actions before they cause damage.

### Why choose Malware Protection Plus vs other malware protection software?

Malware Protection Plus offers faster threat detection, broader coverage, and lower system impact than typical solutions. Its advanced behavioral engine catches attacks that signature-based tools often miss.

### Why Malware Protection Plus is the best anti-malware software?
