AVAST NG:

A hardware based virtualization solution capable of running each Windows process in standalone safe virtualized environment (VM) and fully integrated to your desktop. Each process is executed in its own instance of VM, which means totally isolated from your other applications. This feature is now powering the Avast DeepScreen, resulting in better detection. The technology will also eventually power the Sandbox and SafeZone components (although it does not now).
Note: In this beta build, not all detections are 100% operable yet, so I wouldn't recommend using the new DeepScreen for detection testing for now. It will be 100% operable in the next couple of weeks - we will certainly let you know when is the good time to start testing with your malware collections.
Note 2: Avast NG can be installed only on physical machine, does not work in VM. It requires HW virtualization enabled.

GrimeFighter Free:

GrimeFighter will offer free cleaning of junk files and tuning of system settings. These tasks are performed by our Zilch and Torque minions. Other minion functions remain as paid-for features.

Release Notes

Here is the list of major changes/improvements:

• HTTPS scanning
Ability to detect and decrypt TLS/SSL protected traffic in the Web-content filtering component. This feature will protect you against viruses coming through HTTPs traffic as well as adding compatibility for SPDY+HTTPS/ HTTP 2.0 traffic. You can tune/disable this feature in the settings section.

• AVAST NG
A hardware based virtualization solution capable of running each Windows process in standalone safe virtualized environment (VM) and fully integrated to your desktop. Each process is executed in its own instance of VM, which means totally isolated from your other applications. This feature is now powering the Avast DeepScreen, resulting in better detection. Avast NG requires HW virtualization enabled.

• SecureDNS (this feature is active in the paid versions only)
A new provider which guards against unprotected DNS/DNS hijack on a router/client (including unsecured networks, public ones, etc.).

• Home Network Security
Scan your home network for vulnerabilities (wifi status, connected devices, router settings, factory passwords, etc.). It helps to discover potential problems not isolated on the particular device only, but in the entire network of devices you use or connect to the Internet from.

• Smart Scan
Integrated all on demand scans into one (Antivirus, Software updates, Home Network, GrimeFighter). One scan, different results and recommendations.

• GrimeFighter Free
GrimeFighter will offer free cleaning of junk files and tuning of system settings. These tasks are performed by our Zilch and Torque minions. Other minion functions remain as paid-for features.

• New Support System
Easy contact for paid users to submit a ticket with all info included automatically. Improved knowledge base for free users. Help is completely online and is more up to date.

• General bugfixing
This covers a lot of stability & performance changes in all components (but the main focus was traditionally on the network & engine components).

Die neue Ausgabe des Antiviren-Programms von Avast testet auch Router auf bekannte Sicherheitslücken und schwache Passwörter.

Die 2015er Kollektion von Avast überprüft nicht nur den Rechner, sondern auch den Router. Dabei soll sie unter anderem Sicherheitslücken und schwache Passwörter aufspüren. Nach Angaben der Herstellers untersucht das Programm etwa, ob bekannte Sicherheitslücken im Router klaffen oder ob seine Dienste über das Internet erreichbar sind. Darüber hinaus kann die 2015er Generation nun auch Malware in HTTPS-Traffic aufspüren.

Wie gehabt bietet das Unternehmen eine kostenlose Version an, die alle grundlegenden Funktionen mitbringt. Zudem gibt es drei kostenpflichtige Varianten: Avast Pro für 35 Euro pro Rechner/Jahr, Internet Security für 40 Euro und Premier für 50 Euro.
