In which security product is Google database (on VirusTotal) incorporated?
It scores very good, even better than some famous vendors!

Google's database is incorporated in a security product called VirusTotal, which is a free online service that analyzes files and URLs for viruses, worms, trojans, and other kinds of malicious content.

Yes, I know; also Kaspersky databse is incorporated in VT, but you can find it in Kaspersky products.
Where to find Google database outside VT?

Google's database used in VirusTotal is not available as a standalone product outside of VirusTotal. It's a proprietary database used specifically for the service.

No, it is only used in chrome browser detections.

 

[Parkinsond]

No, it is only used in chrome browser detections.

I have the impression its detection rate on VT is higher than that of Chrome; I wonder if it is the same database!

VirusTotal is actually owned by Google.

VirusTotal is actually owned by Google.

then they have to launch their own antivirus backed up by plethora of threat telemetry and call it Google Defender; they are performing more than good on VT.
