The Malwarebytes announced version 5.2.2.154 of its software of the same name which seems to be not only anti-malware but a full operating system anti-virus with protection real time and more.
Version 5.2 is designed as a solution that can "replace your traditional antivirus," the company said. So the new application includes all the features that were previously available separately: Anti-Malware, Anti-Exploit, Anti-Ransomware, Website Protection, and Remediation (recovery function).
In addition, the development team seems to have focused on the performance of the application, since they report that the 5.2 version has the ability to scan the computer four times faster than before.
What is also very important to mention is that the software Malwarebytes still works very well with other security products, so you can install it as an extra layer of security on your computer.
