Runs beside Defender · fully local

Stops the attack,
not the file's signature.

A behavioral antivirus & EDR for Windows 11 that catches what malware does — so zero-day threats with no signature still get caught and killed.

Detection and response, in one agent

Seven behavioral sentinels watch processes, the network, files, the registry and DNS — and act the moment something turns hostile.

Behavioral, signature-free

Catches techniques, not hashes. Novel and zero-day malware with no known signature still trips the sentinels.

Active response

Suspends or kills the culprit, deletes persistence, and freezes ransomware mid-encryption — automatically.

ATT&CK + CVSS

Every finding maps to a MITRE technique and carries a CVSS score — ready for triage and reporting.

Invisible footprint

Event-driven sentinels sleep until something fires. You will not hear the fans or feel the lag.

Quarantine & self-heal

Killed files go to a locked vault. The engine restarts itself if an attacker tries to shut it down.

Game aware

Throttles while a full-screen game runs, then snaps back to full protection the second you exit.

Real techniques, mapped and scored

A selection of the techniques FlewHaul detects, each tested with real tooling — not a generic feature list.

No open ports. No cloud. No way in.

A security tool should never become the hole in your defenses. The FlewHaul agent never opens a listening port and never sends your data anywhere — so it cannot be reached, hijacked, or turned against you.
