Microsoft Defender
Is the improved performance of Microsoft Defender a myth? Should we necessarily be using a 3rd party AV?

[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 967971, member: 32260"] [B]Are all the video tests useless?[/B] No, they are not. I found some of them useful. I like the video tests that can show a particular weakness in AV protection. There were many such tests on the MT forum. A few PC Channel tests can be among them. For example: [URL unfurl="true"]https://malwaretips.com/threads/windows-11-vs-ransomware-tpsc.110854/post-963974[/URL] There is a sufficient difference in the results of the online and offline detection/protection, that shows Defender's dependence on the cloud backend. Of course, this test is fully compatible with the results of professional tests made by AV-Comparatives (member of AMTSO). This test can also show how big have to be differences between results to take a test seriously, even if it does not fulfill the AMTSO methodology. The cons of most video tests are the author's comments and conclusions. They can suggest something that does not truly follow from the test results. [/QUOTE]
