Does PC Matic prevent ransomware?

PC Matic prevents ransomware by blocking it before it can begin to execute using our default-deny protection. With cyber criminals creating new malware every day, waiting for a "bad" classification is not feasible. By blocking all unknown applications PC Matic can protect you against the newest and most targeted ransomware.

Can PC Matic defeat fake virus scams?

PC Matic uses an allowlist based protection to defeat the fake virus scam. These websites always popup a phone number, and PC Matic blocks any website that shows a phone number inside a pop-up window unless it's an allowlisted phone number from a legitimate company. Users are redirected to a safe webpage with information about the scam.

Does PC Matic block trojans, virues & worms?

Before a virus or worm can execute and begin replicating, PC Matic sees it as an unknown and blocks the attempt.

How does application allowlisting work?

PC Matic leverages patented technology to offer industry-best protection for your devices. SuperShield, our real-time protection allowlisting component, deploys a default-deny approach blocking all unknown applications from running without causing headaches or slowdowns. This is made possible by our global list of known good applications and patented digital signature technology.
