Webroot Infrared™ Provides Advanced Detection of Zero-Day Malware
Webroot has introduced a powerful new threat detection engine called Infrared. Utilizing data from the Webroot® Intelligence Network™ (WIN™) cloud security service, Webroot Infrared analyzes unknown files by correlating their behavior and origin, and then makes an assessment of the associated risk before the file is allowed to run. The Webroot Infrared engine also customizes protection to the individual device based on a combined analysis of the operating system, applications, and prior threats which have been observed.
 
That is from our press release for the 2014 product, probably the biggest change over our 2013 heuristics would be the ability to customize the protection provided based on the machine in question. if this does not answer your query or if you have any further questions please  let us know.
