Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection and Malwarebytes Endpoint Detection and Response subscriptions include a comprehensive list of applications to protect. This list is the default set of applications protected by our Anti-Exploit technology. Anti-Exploit technology is a multi-layered protection module in Malwarebytes that prevents exploit attacks that target vulnerabilities found in these applications.
To find the list of protected applications in the Nebula console, go to Settings > Policies > select a policy > Windows tab > Settings tab > Real-Time Protection section > Manage Protected Applications.
When you click Manage Protected Applications, a window displays the full list of applications that Malwarebytes protects. By default, protection for these apps is enabled. See below for the full list:
