Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware monitors all activity in the computer and identifies actions which are typical of ransomware activity.
It keeps track of all activity and, once it has enough evidence to determine a certain process or thread to be ransomware, blocks the infection and quarantines the ransomware before it has a chance to encrypt users' files. During development Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware has blocked every single ransomware variant we have thrown at it. We are extremely satisfied with its results and are excited to bring this technology to our user community for further testing.
As this is the very first beta we do encourage beta users to install the product in non-production environments for testing purposes only.
Installation is very straight forward. Simply download and install from the link below. You can safely install Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware beta alongside Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit. If you encounter a problem or false positive please read this.
VERY IMPORTANT!!: Please note that you must first uninstall any earlier BETA versions prior to installing BETA 8. You will not see an upgrade notice in product for this version.

- Version of the software installed including specific product, build, and version number so we can determine correct version of product installed and apply updates as appropriate.
- License details so that we know if it’s an older version of the beta and should be expired.
- General system info such as OS, system language, processor and file system in use to understand how the product behaves in different environments.
- Data on any potentially malicious activity including a copy of the executable file that caused the program to alert, along with internal product logs which include information on the detection logic so that we can improve the product’s efficacy.
