Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit (MBAE) is a program made by Malwarebytes Corporation. This program protects browsers and software programs from attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in programs code. This program protects a lot of popular programs that have may or may not have exploits. In the free version of the program it includes "shields" for: Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Opera Browser, Maxthon, Seamonky, IceDragon, Cyberfox, Palemoon, Tor Browser, Comodo Dragon, and Oracle Java. In the Premium version users have more "shields" for: Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Reader, Foxit Phantom, Foxit Reader, LibreOffice, Microsoft Office, Windows Media Player, VLC Player, Winamp Player, and Apple QuickTime. Users of the Premium edition also have the ability to turn on and off "shields" with a Premium subscription, including Anti-Exploit for Business.

Overview

This program provides four layers of protection to block exploits. The program Blocks shell code execution, memory calls, sandbox escapes and memory mitigation bypasses. Other attacks include, Drive-by exploits and File Format exploits. The program does not require frequent updates while secures programs associated with older operating systems, (e.g. Microsoft Windows XP) and works with other security solutions. Execution logs are available to free and Premium users to explain when the service started protecting a program for instance Mozilla Firefox and when an attack was blocked. The Business version allows more protection including less IT involvement to make it compatible with endpoint security systems.

History

The program has made Exploit Kit creators have a very hard time to prevent being found by MBAE. One of the most popular Exploit creators Angler have put in their exploit kits to remove it's self from the target computer because of the Programs ability to figure out brand-new exploits or 0day exploits. Some of the Exploits that the Program has blocked include: CVE-2015-0311, CVE-2013-7331, and many others.

In December of 2016 Malwarebytes corporation decided to have Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit, Malwarebytes's Anti-ransomware, and Malwarebytes's Malicious Website protection combined into one Antivirus as Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 3.X. Thus ending MBAE as it's own separate program. Users that had a premium subscription to MBAE were able to input the same license key they had for MBAE and use it for MBAM 3.X.
