Will this protect against other malware?

YES!  A LOT of trojan based malware out there utilizes the same infection tactics and launch point locations as CryptoLocker, therefore CryptoPrevent will protect against all malware that fits the same or similar profile and behavior. Additionally new SRP rules to the existing protection system, plus new protection types (and definition updates) integrated into CryptoPrevent v6/v7 (and another coming soon in v8) will stop far more malware than just ‘crypto’ style ransomware!
