avast 2014 - niepotwierdzona plotka

[yaslaw]

za wildersami informacja o zmianach

Hi Evangelists,

We are pretty excited and you hope you will be too by this post.You may not have known it, but we decided to do another major release this year -- version 2014 is deep in development and the time has come to give you a teaser about what all is included.Of course, your feedback and comments will be welcome and valued so don’t hold anything back ;-)

More specifically, we are changing the release schedule in the sense that from now on, our products will be released in October (instead of the usual February that you’ve already gotten used to). This is mainly because most of our competitors release new products in the fall – and, frankly, many users expect us to do the same. This also includes the reviewers, whose livesmakes much easier to collect the new versions of all products at roughly the same time to test them. Last but not least, it also allows us to appropriately use the year moniker in the version name (i.e. in this case Avast 2014) – which is somewhat controversial (people have sort of love/hate relationship with it), but the fact is, for people who don’t necessarily follow the product too closely it’s good concept: it’s easy to recognize that version 2014 is probably the latest, while if it were version 9 it wouldn’t really say anything.

Again, this is an early announcement exclusively for this closed evangelist group, and we would very much appreciate if none of the information presented here was leaked to the general public yet.

The public beta will start in about 2 weeks.

Now, let us give you a list of new features in Avast 2014. As you can see, we really tried to focus our efforts on what matters most – the quality of protection provided by the product. This is not to say that all the changes are happening under the hoodthough – in fact, as you will see, for example the UI changes are quite profound… I’d even say radical in some ways. :-)

Protection-related features and improvements
New DeepScreen technology allows avast! to make more intelligent decisions about new/unknown files. DeepScreen is a successor of AutoSandbox, now upgraded with some additional new technologies such as dynamic binary translation and dyna-gen announced earlier.
New Hardened mode for stricter lockdown scenarios. This is a new mode that is recommended especially for novice users (such as your grandmas): it automatically blocks execution of binaries that would normally be deepscreened (Moderate level) or even allows only execution of programs that are well-known to FileRep (Aggressive level). In a way, it brings the whitelisting concept to the consumer AV space.
Improved cloud scanning features and crowdsourced analysis of suspicious items. This includes new, optimized mechanism for collecting data from our sensors.
Continuously streaming update (CSU) technology for up-to-minute detections. This is not entirely new for v2014, but we now have really buttoned up the whole streaming update infrastructure to allow for reliable, uninterrupted service. We’re currently doing 350-400 updates a day, which equals to one update in roughly every 3.75 minutes, 24x7, 365 days a year. Streaming updates can now also carry more types of definitions than before.
Improved cleaning of malware. This applies to standard malware as well as rootkits and file infectors.

Other new features
All-new web browser plugins featuring comprehensive security ratings, protection against malware, phishing and typosquatting sites and Do-Not-Track (DNT) functionality for improved anonymity on the Internet. The DNT functionality doesn’t rely on the DNT HTTP headers; instead, it uses a proprietary technology that cannot be overridden by the servers.
All-new SafeZone for more secure online shopping and banking. Users can now switch back and forth between SafeZone and the regular browser with a single click. Also, online banking sites can be automatically opened in the SafeZone.
Rescue disk - allow users to create a bootable CD or flash disk with Avast on it. Great for cleaning.

Other improvements
A new, streamlined user interface for simplified navigation and more user comfort. The new UI is actually much simplified, and it’s probably the biggest change since version 5.0. We have also redefined the shields to the total number of three (File Shield, Web Shield, Mail Shield) and tweaked the action buttons (tiles) on the home page so that they’re now fully configurable.
Control and manage all protected devices directly from the Avast console. That is, the my.avast.com account is perfectly integrated in the UI to allow for management of all your devices running Avast.
Dramatic reduction in product size (full installer < 60MB, compared to today’s 120MB) and memory footprint. By default, install is done through a new stub installer though (which has the advantage of always installing the most up-to-date version).
Faster scanning thanks to optimized scanning engine (raw [in-memory]scans of EXE files are about 2x faster, while scans of text contents (e.g. web pages and scripts) are up to 10x faster).
Completely rewritten setup/updater that makes the installation and upgrade process faster, easier and more reliable
Firewall has been redesigned from scratch to allow for better compatibility with latest Windows, better performance and full support for IPv6 (although its UI hasn’t really changed).
New licensing system allows for much easier management of product licenses. The system relies on activation codes, and these can be added seamlessly by simply clicking a link.
Various improvement in the Software Updater and Browser Cleanup tool.

Po tylu latach (w końcu) gui Avasta ma szansę wyglądać przyzwoicie

[chomikos]

Dla mnie GUI od wersji 5 nie było złe. Nawet mi się podobało. Acz te tak częste zmiany UI, (wersja 7 inny, wersja 8 inny, wersja 9 inny) mogą nie wyjść na korzyść dla avast''a.

[yaslaw]

Panowie, GUI to GUI.
skupiłbym się bardziej na zmianach które zachodzą w programie, a tych jest całkiem sporo. W przeciwieństwie do wielu innych programów które właściwie skupiają się tylko na dodawaniu nowych cyferek i bzdur w postaci np. niszczarek do plików tutaj widać że coś się dzieje.
Wiele osób pokłada nadzieję w nowych sygnaturach dyna-gen&Evo-gen (których zasady działania przyznam że do końca nie rozumiem ->

Comodo tak robi od 2009 roku, poza tym wszystko jest lepsze od radyjka w wersji 4.8

[Arkovianin]

Koledzy, jestem pod wrażeniem, nowego GUI jest intuicyjne, ale co z tego jak chyba jest jakiś błąd bo ciągle się aktualizuje baza wirusów do tej samej wersji czyli 130819-0

[facecik]

A czy oprócz wyglądu zauważyłeś że to wczesna beta ?

[Miquell]

GUI rzeczywiście całkiem przyjemne dla oka

A czy oprócz wyglądu zauważyłeś że to wczesna beta ?

Nie wiem czy tylko u mnie, czy na większą skalę, ale system często łapie zwiechę przy restarcie i zanim wstanie na dobre (jeśli wstanie, bo zdarza się, że nie) to mija wieczność...
Dodam, że to wszystko na i5 z 12 GB, ze świeżym i czystym Win7 x64...
