What SCIAT Antivirus
Actually Does

SCIAT Antivirus is the entry point to our consumer range: continuous, low-noise protection that runs in the background and gets out of your way. It combines signature and behavioural detection, so it catches both the malware everybody has seen and the variants written last week. Threat data is informed by what our forensics and incident response teams actually encounter across the region — including the ransomware families and banking trojans that target East African users specifically.

Everything Included
in SCIAT Antivirus

Real-Time Malware Protection

Files, downloads and running processes are inspected as they execute, with behavioural analysis to catch malware that has never been seen before.

Anti-Ransomware

Watches for the file-encryption behaviour ransomware depends on, stops the process, and rolls protected folders back to their previous state.

Phishing & Malicious Site Blocking

Blocks fraudulent banking, mobile-money and delivery-notification pages before the form loads, across every browser on the device.

Lightweight by Design

Scanning is scheduled around how you actually use the machine, so protection does not cost you startup time or battery life.

Automatic Updates

Detection data updates continuously in the background. There is nothing to remember and nothing to click.

Local Support

Support from our Nairobi team, in your timezone, from people who understand the threats landing locally.
