This test shows how an antivirus behaves with certain threats, in a specific environment and under certain conditions.
We encourage you to compare these results with others and take informed decisions on what security products to use.
Before buying an antivirus you should consider factors such as price, ease of use, compatibility, and support. Installing a free trial version allows an antivirus to be tested in everyday use before purchase.
When the subsidiary outperforms the parent company...Avira is back ❤
AV-C's real-world and malware protection tests don't include script malware.And panda getting consistently getting 100% (or close to). Avira getting 100% with such weak protection against scripts.
I no longer take it seriously when I see Panda with good protection LOL here in the hub tests he was massacred, 100% infected![]()
For that they have the Advanced Threat Protection Test (last one was november):AV-C's real-world and malware protection tests don't include script malware.
So how in the world can they call it "real world" if it isnt even remotely realistic? Do they test malicious macros? If yes, then these tests contains scripts. If no its not "realistic".AV-C's real-world and malware protection tests don't include script malware.
If you look at the recent AV-C and AV-T tests, ESET indeed missed more threats than Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Avast... One possible reason is that it excessively focuses on zero false positives. Also, I noticed that many vendors like McAfee, Symantec, and Kaspersky automatically grab/collect samples from VirusTotal, and then analyze these samples in their sandboxes. I don't know if ESET does the same.Yes, but eset is rated A ** because it loses more malware than the winners A***
If I remember correctly, itman from ESET forum told me the same. ESET doesn't seem to do it.If you look at the recent AV-C and AV-T tests, ESET indeed missed more threats than Kaspersky, Bitdefender, Avast...
