Both links are from well known, reputable companies specializing in anti-malware security software.
One caveat is that these ransomeware developers will likely devise work arounds to circumvent detection. I would not substitute any security software for backups. As this is the only way to reliably counter malware threats.
As a note, a fellow enterprise IT network engineer in my office was telling me that they were informed from weekly Gov security network meetings, that a few members of our enterprise staff had their network share drives encrypted by ransomware. Nothing really surprising as we've seen the Locky ransomeware trojan downloader attached to emails. Though didn't really cause any significant problems, as our network drives are all backed up with access restricted.
