• Enhanced ransomware protection using behavioral rules to prevent damage to targeted file types as well as large volume writes.
• Detection of strains of malware or malicious files by creating YARA rules that look for certain characteristics within the files. 
• Improved client performance and reduced windows client size by 40 MB by optimizing the hardening engines on the client.
