Single Product Test PC Matic PC Pitstop Supershield 2.0
PC Matic approaches security differently than traditional security products. PC Matic relies mainly on a white list to defeat malware; this can lead to a higher number of false alarms if users have files which are not yet on PC Matic’s whitelist. Unknown files are uploaded to PC Matic servers, where they get compared against a black- and white list (signed and unsigned).
By default, PC Matic SuperShield only blocks threats and unknown files on-execution, but does not remove/quarantine them.
