[QUOTE="Lenny_Fox, post: 916244, member: 82776"] Nice read with impressive statistics, but your assumption is not correct, no testlab in the world manages to catch 30.000 new malware samples per month. It is very hard to find malware samples in the wild which can bypass an updated Windows 10 pc. Next you have to check the malware being genuine malware without alerting all AV's. After the genuine-malware check you have to check whether the infection is repeatable and still alive. Last step is to define which variants of the same malware to include based on prevalence. AV-comparatives has between 150 to 250 samples monthly AV-test between 100 and 200 monthly All other smaller test labs manage at best 25 to 75 monthly. Your calculation is applicable for Zoo-ed malware, but the sample sets of Zoo-ed malware are around 5.000 to 15.000 (defending on size of test lab) per month. [/QUOTE]
