File Reputation "Insight"?

Hi there,

Does "Live Protection" works like a very fast way to distribute signatures, or like a reputation database?

Does SOPHOS has any comparable "reputation system" like Insight?

Is there anythink like it on a near term roadmap?

Thanks

    It depends on the implementation. Some vendors use reputation to limit what an application can do or to change the way their behaviour detection systems work (ex.: low rep apps cannot write to non user directories; or make hips more agressive for low rep apps).

    And not wanting to sound inappropriate, I see the products using that kind of "technology" prospering and being rated better and better on independent tests (-compromises, -false positives), when others seem to be dropping the ball lately.
