[QUOTE="Shadowra, post: 1104625, member: 92939"] No and no! Let me explain: antivirus testing is not just about testing the software on a pack.... An av has several defensive shields: antimalware, yes, but also Web protection, behavioral blocking and even Machine Learning. Of course, when running after analysis, it will trigger behavioral protection, but the threat can also come from the Web, so this protection is totally forgotten. Secondly, EXEs are not the only source of infection.... Nowadays, there are a huge number of scripts that hijack PowerShell to download various payloads and then execute them (this is often the case with AgentTesla, GuLoader, RemcosRat and even LokiBot) ... It also exists in the form of Java with Adwind or as .ONE using Microsoft's OneNote.... It doesn't use any of these, so it can't test the AV's anti-attack shield (AMSI). And finally, making a 1 to 2 minute video is totally useless, you can't show anything about the product's effectiveness. Personally, my videos last between 6 and 9 minutes, because I feel I need to show you everything about the product's key events. In any case, I will personally avoid.... [/QUOTE]
