[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 928031, member: 32260"] The sum of missed samples in Malware Protection tests for all AVs listed in my OP except Trend Micro: AV-Test ---> 93 AV-Comparatives ---> 123 Despite the similar numbers of missed samples, AV-Comparatives tested only about 42000 samples and AV-Test tested about 182000 samples (over four times more). So, the samples tested in AV-Comparatives are probably fresher than in AV-Test. From the AV-Test report we can read: "[B]Detection of widespread and prevalent malware discovered in the last 4 weeks (the AV-TEST reference set)[/B]". So, for both AV-Comparatives and AV-Test, the samples in the Malware Protection tests are gathered from about one month. By the way, Trend Micro missed more samples than all AVs listed in my OP (257 vs. 93+123). The horrible detection happened not in one test but in two consecutive tests (= all AV-Comparatives Malware Protection tests in 2020). Still, the opposite happened in AV-Test Malware Protection tests (0 missed samples). [/QUOTE]
