Dual Engine:
Two Malware Scanners

Two scanners – one goal: uncompromising protection. Our Dual Engine combines proven signature-based detection with advanced AI analysis, uncovering even the newest, previously unknown threats. The result? Double security with minimal resource consumption.

What Makes Our Dual Engine So Extraordinary?

We combine the strengths of two independent scanning technologies:

  • Scanner 1 reliably identifies known malware patterns using proven signatures and heuristics.
  • Scanner 2 leverages modern AI techniques to proactively detect emerging threats.

This intelligent combination maximizes detection rates and shields you from all types of attacks—without slowing down your system.

Dual Engine

Signature-based detection modern meets proven.

With evolving threats, a balanced security approach is essential. Protectstar™ combines trusted methods with innovation in Antivirus AI.

Signature-based detection works seamlessly with behavioral analysis and AI to deliver comprehensive, layered protection.
