Compatibility with Windows security updates which close Spectrum and Meltdown

Dear users!

Early 2018 vulnerabilities Meltdown (CVE-2017-5753 and CVE-2017-5715) and Spectre (CVE-2017-5754) were announced. The vulnerabilities can be used to steal user’s data.

January 3, 2018, Microsoft released Windows security updates.

We made comprehensive testing and confirm the full compatibility of NANO Antivirus / NANO Antivirus Pro and those Windows security updates. The updates will be installed automatically by OS only if there is the special registry key.

At the moment we prepare to release the new version nano Antivirus / NANO Antivirus Pro which will set up the key automatically (follow our news). If you want to get security updates now, you can set up the key manually.
