AVG AntiVirus Free 2015

From AVG Technologies USA:

AVG continues to deliver essential free antivirus protection with the launch of AVG AntiVirus FREE 2015. It goes beyond simply detecting and removing viruses on your PC by blocking infected links as you browse, checking files before they're downloaded, and helping protect your personal data online and on your PC with enhanced privacy features. With AVG AntiVirus FREE 2015, we've improved our core engine and its accuracy, and included a new cloud-based detection method. And because we know that security is just as important as usability, AVG AntiVirus FREE 2015 features a revamped, easier-to-use design.

We've been hard at work optimizing our core engine to increase its detection accuracy. That includes better detection of screen-locker ransomware and improved scanning of all downloadable files to keep you safe from an exponentially expanding pool of threats.

And when a new online threat breaks out and spreads, the key to keeping you protected is the speed with which we can react. Our new Outbreak Detection gives us the tools to act immediately and curtail their spread. With AVG AntiVirus FREE 2015, you don't have to wait until the next virus-definition package is ready to be protected: the moment we know a threat's there, you're covered.

Finally, we believe security should be clean and simple to be effective, and we've put a lot of work in making sure AntiVirus Free 2015 is intuitive to use. Our new simplified design makes sure you know what needs your attention at a glance. Combined with our free comprehensive online support, you can be sure you're getting our best protection.

What's new in version 2015.0.5315

New Interface: With this release, we've put a greater emphasis on design to make protecting yourself as easy as possible. We've perfected our interface to give you full-featured anti-virus protection in a beautifully simple design. Simple circles give you an overview of your level of protection, and their color alerts you to potential problems. A partial circle means that certain protection features are not activated or installed, while a full one means that you are fully covered.

Outbreak Detection: Normally, when we find a new threat, we build malware definition packages that include several detection and removal methods, test them internally and finally distribute them to our users. This represented a short window during which you could have potentially been infected with an emerging 0-day threat before the detection methods are up to date on your computer. Outbreak Detection fills that gap. Now, when we discover a 0-day threat, we immediately upload our earliest detection methods into the back end of our cloud-based threat database. Whenever a user comes across that threat and is in a position to activate it, our behavioral detection kicks in and does a reputation check. If the application is linked to this new threat-it will be blocked and quarantined. This new method helps keep you safe the moment we know a threat is out there, and helps to stop its spread while we develop the regular definitions packages which contain a broader and more thorough protection.
