[2016-07-15] CryptoDrop Stops Ransomware Attacks And Minimizes File Loss

[jdebunt]

Do not be mistaken in thinking CryptoDrop is a one-in-all solution, though. It remains important to run separate antivirus and antimalware software on computers. CryptoDrop can run alongside existing security programs, but is only designed to detect ransomware. In these cases, it is better to have different types of software focus on doing one thing right, rather than having one tool that does a less than adequate job for overall security.

Besides CryptoDrop, there are other free software to consider: http://sensorstechforum.com/the-most-popular-free-anti-ransomware-tools/
I have Bitdefender anti-ransomware, and also Heimdal Pro, a second generation AV solution, in addition to my AV program I assume one tool is never enough, especially in these ransomware times....
