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

[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 968226, member: 32260"] This should not worry you. For example, in the AV-Comparatives tests the best AV of the year 2020 was Kaspersky. It missed in Malware Protection tests 22 samples in the year 2019, 4 samples in the year 2020, and 10 samples in the year 2021 (approximately 10000 samples in each of 6 tests ---> on average 6 missed samples per 10000 tested samples). In the AV-Comparatives Real-World tests, Kaspersky missed 6 samples in the year 2019, 3 samples in the year 2020, and 5 samples in the year 2021 (approximately 750 samples in each of 6 tests ---> on average 3 missed samples per 1000 tested samples, or 30 missed samples per 10000 samples). If you would like to compare this with video malware tests, then in the 8 last PC Channel malware tests (over 10000 samples from the period 2018-2020) Kaspersky neutralized all tested malware (protection miracle). So, choose carefully which tests should not be trusted.(y) [/QUOTE]
