What is

CylancePROTECT Desktop

?

CylancePROTECT Desktop

detects and blocks malware before it can affect a device.

BlackBerry

uses a mathematical approach to malware identification, using machine learning techniques instead of reactive signatures, trust-based systems, or sandboxes. This approach renders new malware, viruses, bots, and future variants useless.

CylancePROTECT Desktop

analyzes potential file executions for malware in the OS and memory layers to prevent the delivery of malicious payloads.

The

CylancePROTECT Desktop

agent is designed to use a minimal amount of system resources. The agent treats files or processes that execute as a priority because these events could be malicious. Files that are simply on disk (in storage but not executing) take a lower priority because while these could be malicious, these do not pose an immediate threat.
