So as many of you, i tend to disagree with some professional antivirus testing such as AV-Test or AV-Comparatives. I might find that a security product is over rated or disagree with how the tests are made. For instance, Emsisoft happens to be among the last on AV-Comparatives quite often because they consider user-dependent actions the same as a miss. I disagree with these results as i know Emsisoft is one of the best product out there. Still i understand how they arrived to that conclusion.
But the latest results on AV-Test are a complete joke as you can see here. According to them, if you select by protection, Eset and Avira are behind Microsoft Security Essentials. I'm not saying Microsoft's protection is garbage, as i know they have improved lately, but there is no way that in real life condition Security Essentials or Defender offers better protection than Eset or Avira.
Also if you look at another one of their test from October 2016 (their latest Windows 10 test), AhnLab Internet Security ranked the highest. While i'm not familiar with this company, i highly doubt they provide better protection than Bitdefender, Kaspersky, Norton, Trend Micro and F-Secure.
So what are your opinions on these results ? Do you agree with those or no ? And why ?
Thanks for taking the time to read me
