Since that moment IObit Security 360 has no longer received the press that it initially did. ![]() However it must be said the evidence was (is) heavily lopsided in Malwarebytes’ favor.Īlthough IObit continued to claim innocence in this whole fiasco, after the accusations came to light Security 360 users started reporting that the signature database of Security 360 was drastically made smaller and subsequently Malwarebytes claimed they “won” saying IObit removed Malwarebytes signatures from Security 360. Now I say “allegedly” because it hasn’t been proved with 100% certainty that IObit did indeed do as they are accused of nor have they been found guilty in a court of law and chances of them ever having to stand trial regarding this matter is slim to none since they are based in China while Malwarebytes is based in the USA – cross-country trials never, if ever, happen. When it first came out, Security 360 received rave reviews from pretty much everyone because it performed fairly well, terms of protection performed, as in past tense, is the key word here.Ī few months after IObit Security 360 was released, it came to light that IObit allegedly used the malware signature database of Malwarebytes – without their permission – in Security 360. Another one of IObit’s offerings is IObit Security 360, an anti-malware program that also comes in Free and Pro editions. ![]() ![]() IObit, of course, has built upon their ASC-inspired success and have expanded their product offerings to numerous other software such as Game Booster, IObit Toolbox, and IObit Advanced Uninstaller. IObit has been a small, yet popular name in the software industry thanks to their Advanced SystemCare product line and for good reason: Advanced SystemCare – which comes in a Free and Pro version – is a very handy system utility.
