[QUOTE="XLR8R, post: 938791, member: 85385"] Online is based on advanced cloud analysis, but read AV-comparatives' disclaimer on online protection rates. The concerning thing is that the signature + cloud part of the AV engine, which is reflected in the offline and online detection rates. Since the pandemic (maybe slightly before that), some vendors have been in decline. The signature + heuristic + cloud performance is directly linked to the number of staff + available infrastructure + technological advancement of the AV engines. Kaspersky was a leader in signature + cloud for so long that it is not even funny where it stands today. Eset is also on a slow decline. It looks like for the actual "technology" components only AVG/Avast, Avira and BitDefender have held their ground whereas the others have refocused efforts towards webfilters and behavior blockers instead of the core scan technologies.
