Hello all!
Today I decided to make my first comparison, comparing Kaspersky, F-Secure and Norton.
These are the 3 antiviruses that I hear the most at the moment, so they will compete to see who will win!

The test battery is identical: 5 Phishing URLs, 10 malware URLs, 1 fake crack full of malware, 1 pack of 6981 threats.
Disinfection with Hitman Pro only.



Phishing Test:

The 1st is Kaspersky and achieves a score of 2/5.
A little disappointed...

The second one is F-Secure and achieves an almost flawless score of 4/5

And finally Norton makes a score of 1/4 (1 URL was dead)

Our competitors are hot, let's go on !

Malware :

Norton and F-Secure make the same score : 10/10
On the other hand, our friend Kaspersky gets screwed... The 10th URL was a Ransomware, and Kaspersky does not stop it... Impossible to continue! Kaspersky is eliminated.

Fake crack:

F-Secure and Norton both block it.

Malware Pack:

F-Secure took 1h to analyze and clean, Norton took 2h45 !!!
The 2 antiviruses blocked many threats during the execution, but I found F-Secure much more comfortable. Norton had trouble from time to time.

Result Hitman Pro :

F-Secure makes a machine healthy! Only files in the archive are detected.
Norton lets through 2 active infections, and several files from the pack (the files are not counted, only the active infections count)

Overall Test:

1st : F-Secure. Makes a machine healthy, and new!
2nd : Norton. Passes 2 infections
3rd : Kaspersky, the disappointment. A Ransomware passed preventing it from continuing....

The comparison took 6 hours to complete!

Yay! The underdog won!

hXXp://prodownload.XXX/admin/upload/cross2007.XXX isn't a ransomware. It's just a trojan (tech support scam) with a screen locker, just press CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + F4 to close it.
KTIP (Kaspersky Threat Intelligence Portal) pick it as Heuristic detection.

Good test! Thank you for you. Good job.

Disappointed with the result of Kaspersky. But in the latter case, there was just a screen lock, which Kaspersky can get rid of by pressing the combination CTRL + ALT + SHIFT + F4.

 

[Shadowra]

After checking and seeing @Andrew3000 links, file number 10 is not a Ransomware, but a ScreenLocker FakeTechScam.

Sorry for the mistake, the behavior of the malware misled me.
But the result doesn't change (you can kill it with the command, but I don't think Mrs Michu knows it)

 

[Minimalist]

I agree, power users know this but most users of Kaspersky wouldn't know how to close it.

 

[Pat MacKnife]

Nice result F-Secure !

I do not like Norton and F-secure anymore, because they boycotted my country, and did not differentiate between the people and the government and people cant update this product whithout vpn .But these two companies Eset ,kaspersky did not create this problem for the people of my country. They can easily act and be updated.
So I choose Kaspersky.

Well thanks for the video, I'm glad F Secure works well, it's the one I'm using at the moment...The K thing is strange.... "But the best writer gets a blur".

 

[RansomwareRemediation]

configuring Kaspersky propperly, please test with custom setting and look if the files are encripted or not

Lightweight products rely mainly on F-Secure Mind™ for malware analysis. Mind, which is the Security Cloud’s sample analysis service, works in conjunction with the reputation service Karma.

Yes I can there will be just a little wait (full list)

 

[Evjl's Rain]

the problem is every security product has ups and downs
Kaspersky has always been great and consistent but today they seem to have some problems with recent malwares (covid in Russia is increasing exponentially?)

one month later, maybe if you perform the test again, the winner can be kaspersky or norton and f-secure would be last. Who knows

 

[icarus]

problem is malware and infections does not waiting for 1month
