Metadefender Cloud Client

The quick answer to the question "what does this software do" is this: Metadefender Cloud Client tells you if there’s something you should be worried about. It can do that because it is a malware analysis tool that scans all running processes and loaded memory modules using 30+ anti-malware engines, detects rogue IP connections, and checks your locally installed anti-malware for signs that it might have failed to remove a threat. Once it’s done analyzing your system, Metadefender Cloud Client will generate a report that presents all the threats it uncovered.

Metadefender Cloud Client provides support for Windows 7, 8 and 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server 2008 R2, 2012 and 2012 R2, as well as Windows Server 2016. You’ll be glad to know that Metadefender Cloud Client doesn’t need to be installed. Just download an executable, run it, and Metadefender Cloud Client will start to analyze your system.

There are 5 tabs on this application’s interface:
Summary – brief summary that shows how many files were processed, how many potentially infected files were uncovered, your PC’s IP and MAC address, and some other info.
Operating Memory – lists all the running processes that have been flagged as potentially dangerous.
Suspicious files – lists all the files that might have been infected.
IP Connections – lists connections to low reputation or rogue IP addresses.
Local Antimalware – checks the threats logged by your local anti-malware and locates patterns which might indicate that the local anti-malware failed to remove.

Using Metadefender Cloud Client is a very straightforward matter. Launch the application and it will immediately initiate a scan. Once the scan completes, go over it to see what it uncovered. Click the Reprocess button to run the scan one more time, click the Export Report button to save the scan report as a PDF document.
