This no-parsing/ParsingSafe technology is actually Sandboxing [1]. BTW they keep repeating this: ... In order to protect the aps-AV itself from attacks, it has been completely written in highly secure managed code ( C#) , thereby reducing its attack surface to an absolute minimum. ...

... Apparently they happen, as the guys from n.runs seem to have invented some sort of solution for this problem, rendering attacks on AV impossible (??) they call it aps-AV : "Protects your company from malware threats (Worms, Virus, Trojans..), aps-AV reuses your existing Anti-Virus software and supports multiple Anti-Virus engines. aps-AV increases the malware detection rate through the diversity and heuristics of these multiple engines. However unlike the competition, aps-AV does not increase the remotely exploitable attack surface." http://www.nruns.com/_en/aps/ http://www.nruns.com/_downloads/aps-AV-Solution-Paper-EN.pdf ...
