The approach is so revolutionary and simple that the days of our machines being slowed to a crawl while every file is checked may soon be a thing of the past.

behavioural whitelisting (which was my take on what i read about this at
a site other than the one you're spamming) isn't actually all that
revolutionary... actually it combines the problems with behavioural
approaches (allows the malware to run in the first place, limited to the
behaviours it knows how to see) with the problems with whitelists
(vendor-supplied lists are incredibly large and difficult to maintain
well, while user-supplied lists are generally created without the
benefit of expertise and therefore quite error-prone)...
