[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 905706, member: 32260"] I was curious if the result will change if I extend the number of samples (214 samples are very little), so I included next 335 samples (total 214+335=549). The total pule was gathered in the period 15.07.2019-13.05.2020. Kaspersky was compromised 7 times and 14 samples were missed (but not counted as infection). The comparison with AV-Comparatives (1837 samples 7 infections): [B](7/549)/ (8/1837) = 3 When comparing it to the previous result we can see how unreliable can be taking a few hundreds of malware samples.[/B] The first 214 samples gave 1 infection and the next 335 gave 6. Anyway, the extended analysis suggests that Malware Hub samples are fresher as compared to those used by AV-Comparatives. Edit. From previous tests on MH, made for Kaspersky (Endpoint, Cloud, and free) it looks like Kaspersky in Malware Hub tests can be compromised approximately 1 time per 100 fresh samples which is similar to the above results 7/549 ~ 1.3 .
