App Review Ranking EVERY Antivirus in 300 Seconds (WORST to BEST)

[stonjean633]

Bitdefender is super nice in their corp gravity release with addon sandbox scanning but that is expensive and outside of consumer market. Also, very resource heavy on a low end machine.

I disagree/agree with ESET; sure it gets 99 or 98% detection but at least it's consitent across space and time. IT does not flactuate from 100% detection to 80% detection when looked at from early 2000's to now. It just stays the same. As such you know what you are getting vs playing a whack a mole of effectiveness. And most importantly it's super super light even on my old arse Celery laptop.

Those 2% or 1% detection loss in real world for a consumer market means nothing. Chances of everyday user getting a strain that bypasses ESET is exteremlly low; you really have to go digging in dark web and/or dark corners of the regular web to obtain that infection.

Just my 10c (incraese from 2c due to inflation and tarrifs).

Love the last line. Even those get taxed.

And with all honesty the criterion followed by MT testers is also flawed.

Might this be because Webroot never fairs too well?

On the subject of vintage UI`s did anybody notice the Panda one in the video which was about 12 years old?

Yes it's the old Cloud and not the Dome.

IMO, I believe 1/2 - 3/4 of it is correct, the malware testing, just not the real world testing, apart from the browser testing of phishing, malware website links.
It does, they do give us a general idea of what to consider, as far as the tests and its results.

What I would consider more of a real time test of our AV is, "here are the links to the malware samples/malware sites, on your devices go there and see if the page is blocked, then if the download is blocked, or when we try to run it, it's blocked/flagged, in real time with all the modules enabled during that time. But, I know that isn't practical and we can't do that on our daily devices apart from using VMware.
