Heimdal PRO is a cyber threat protection suite that includes 3 layers of protection against ransomware, financial Trojans, data-stealing malware and other threats that antivirus can't detect.

The difference between Heimdal PRO and antivirus:
Reactive antivirus looks for files and actions, whereas Heimdal looks at traffic. Heimdal works proactively to prevent cyber criminals from infecting your system, taking data from your PC and moving it out of your network.

Heimdal PRO is powered by 3 engines that ensure:

  • real-time traffic scanning – protection against Zero Hour exploits, dangerous web locations, malicious content from legitimate websites and cybercriminal attacks.
  • detection and blocking of advanced malware attacks – blocks confidential data leakage and data exfiltration to cybercriminal-controlled servers.
  • automatic and silent patching – keeps your security-critical software up-to- date, blocking over 85% of attacks that target software apps.

Please note: The software includes a 6-months license and comes with free technical support and updates.

System Requirements:

Windows 7/ 8/ 8.1/ 10; Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.1; 25 MB disk space

I've been using Heimdal for months, almost a year.

None of these strange issues people report are even logical... cursor's moving, CAD crashing, not logical. Uninstall is with the app, it's in Add/Remove - I've used it to reinstall when moving between PCs (I have three PCs).

Product works great, keeps apps updated and stops traffic to blocklists of sites and even cleaned up the CCleaner issue if you had the bad version that came out between August 15th to Sept 19th.

I've had great experiences with the product, not sure how anyone can attribute everything to a utility app but this is why IT people exist I guess... someone needs to step back and understand the logic of something before randomly assigning blame.

This is weird. I downloaded Heimdal, installed no problem on Windows 10 and it was running quietly in the background. Now i've just noticed that the programme has disappeared completely off my computer? has this happened to anyone else?

lizlees, when it's been running for a while, it goes down into the system tray of windows, on the bottom right by the time. Press the arrow pointing to the left and it should pop open and show the system tray icons in Windows.

Downtown, no, the programme is not on my computer. I went to add remove programmes and it was not on the list. It's as if it had uninstalled itself?

Nice: https://www.giveawayoftheday.com/heimdal-pro/get-key/ says

"Successfully submitted." And "I want to activate Heimdal PRO / CORP" - "Activate your Heimdal product" says on red "Could not activate license". The very one I just received and on time... what a blunder. This was on Windows 7 32-bit.
I really would have liked to give this a try.

Serious bug found!
I installed it on my Windows 10 Home. Once it starts to run it will make your typing cursor jump to 1st position on any of your program interface, be it your word, your notepad, your windows menu etc. You can't do any work, your cursor wouldn't follow your typing. It took me two windows restart to uninstall it!

ok so installed no problem. Ran first scan, no problem, went into CAD. 15 min later 'puter shuts down. Restart. go into CAD. 15 min. later 'puter shuts down. Start checking system, turns out, your program was doing something that caused my system to shut down to "Prevent possible damage". To my great surprise, there is not an un-install that comes with the program. Used IOBit's un-installer and have had no issues since. Just FYI, I don't use a rinky-dink computer. This one cost more than 4000.00 for me to put together, and it's VERY stable, so to have an issue that causes it to shut down, is very worrisome for me. I won't be using or reccomending this. Sorry, 3 out of 10 from me

I did install it for the second time; it did not ask for a mail-adres.
I searched for a crack; most of the time these programs are on site with something extra in the file.
And the GOTD program gave no warning:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/mn243yvo1bksu0q/GeenActie.png?dl=0
Also the anti-virus gave no warning.
Virustotal gave a warning:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/eya6rm27f936bxf/Controle-1.png?dl=0
Another file from another site:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/zqphd10b5qc4w9q/GeenActie-2.png?dl=0
This time anti-virus gave a text: seldom downloaded or brand new file:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/nwelz2iqvxcr896/GeenActie-3.png?dl=0
I gave a command to check this file and the anti-virus gave no warning at all.
Virustotal gave 9 different warnings:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/7hc12c7aziwtpdl/Controle-2.png?dl=0
Just a test on two sites. No more time to test more.

Ootje, you can get the installer directly from https://heimdalsecurity.com/en/products/heimdal-free/thank-you and I can assure you that you won't receive any detection from Virustotal or anything else. The installation file is clean and safe.

Andrei @ Heimdal Security, Thank you for the link.
I did not send the setup-file of Heimdal to Virustotal.com.
I did send the file, downloaded from an obscure site to Virustotal.
And there were 9 warnings.
Both AVG and Heimdal did gave a warning.
Nothing about an obscure site or dangerous file.

Reply   |   Comment by Ootje  –  6 years ago  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (0)

Ootje, this program isn't a virus scanner.

It checked for specific types of software based on risk profiles and also blocks traffic to known sites that cause issues.

I'm not sure what someone from Heimdal says, but I run a virus scanner and Heimdal. It's layers on an onion, not a single line of defence.

Now, after cleaning out the temp folder and trying to install again, the setup program stalls at downloading files.

Is there another link to download the Pro version of Heimdal PRO 2.2.151

Reply   |   Comment by dan cohn  –  6 years ago  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (-6)

dan cohn, Hi Dan, it doesn't scan your email in the web mail interface. It will look in the network traffic if you try to download something, and it will prevent something ON your computer from communicating with servers on the Internet.

Google also scans your emails, so a virus scanner would be your best bet mixed with something like Heimdal. Heimdal is good, but it doesn't do everything.

I first tried the program here a few years ago and liked it, so paid for the full version. I use it in addition to my anti-virus software. My only gripe is that you can't white list sites. You have to contact Heimdal to get an exception or turn the program off. But even with that inconvenience, I think it's money well spent.

After a while "Heimdal.Agent.exe" constantly used 20% cpu power on a windows 7 x64 machine-with an updated version of .net 4.6.1- and crashed with a CLR20r3 error on reboot.
Not really my cup of tea.

Take care.

Reply   |   Comment by StrayCat  –  6 years ago  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+35)

Just in case anyone is interested this is the solution offered by Heimdal support: (not tried as yet)

Being a software that uses the network adapter to set the DNS to 127.0.0.1 to offer the needed protection please note that the CPU usage migh be due to the network driver.

Please open the Network and sharing center and go to the Network adapters on the left side. Then Right click on your adapter that you use and go to Properties. Now Click on Configure>Driver tab and see when it was the last time it updated it. It should be in late 2016 or 2017. If it's not in late 2016 or 2017 then take the name of the network card (you can find it when you acess the properties and above the Configure option) and search on google for the driver from late late 2016 or 2017 and install it based on your operating system.

Restart the computer and check the performance
Thank you

Does this work with another antivirus already installed or those will have to be first removed before installing this software,as it is generally advised not to use more than one antivirus at a time to avoid conflict

Only a 6 month license included? That's disappointing.
So after those 6 months it will revert to the "free" version, meaning it will basically be nothing more than an automated software updater?

You're right jermin.
But this is GOTD where "Every day [they] offer FREE licensed software you’d have to buy otherwise."...
No need to say more : the GOTD concept doesn't mix too well with subscription-based services like anti-malware software.

Kort

Vandaag een losse MSI met de aanvraag van een code:
http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/heimdal-pro/get-key/
Daarna komt er na wat onderzoek een download op gang met een vreemde naam.
k heb het programma kunnen installeren naast een werkende antivirus en ook registreren.
Daarna verschillende site bezocht met als uitgangspunt iets duisters op te halen.
Dat is me ook gelukt zonder enige melding van het GOTD programma.
Mijn antivirus gaf een waarschuwing, dat het onbekend was.
Hierna het bestand laten scannen door Virustotal.com en maar 9 verdachte zaken.
Mijn antivirus programma vond niets.
Later in de middag meer tekst.

Looks to be an anti-Malware software, normally these will run alongside most (although not all) AV/IS software w/out issue.

Reply   |   Comment by Florin G  –  6 years ago  –  Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+25)

Florin G, Yes ... because it is more than a simple Anti-virus.
I've used it successfully for at least 18 months with both Auslogics and IObit anti-virus programs, and would thoroughly recommend it to you. The company are extremely helpful - and quick! - if you get any issue at all with the program, and they're currently running a daily "teach-in" on all matters security!
P.S. Just for the record, I have no ties with the company - other than as a very satisfied customer!

Florin G,

According to the FAQ on their website... "Probably". (See below)

Does Heimdal Work With Antivirus Software?

Yes, Heimdal works with the vast majority of antivirus programs as there are no overlapping functions.

Heimdal provides an extra layer of security that you do not get from your antivirus, thus complementing its features with a proactive defense behavior.

Florin G,
guess you can, but don't blame me ... ;)

on the German giveaway site you find in the desription of this giveaway:
The difference between Heimdal PRO and antivirus:
Reactive antivirus looks for files and actions, whereas Heimdal looks at traffic, therefor it is the perfect addition to every antivirus. It's based on a strong database that is steadily updated.

The rest is similar to the one here ...
