If you are too sensitive about what other people say, then the answer on your comment is yes.We probably have a different view on the word "disrespectful"

It has nothing to do with being sensitive. You're calling the test a waste of time and time to read. For me the only thing that seems like a waste of time, was you typing that comment in the first place. Absolutely no value for anyone.If you are too sensitive about what other people say, then the answer on your comment is yes.
Nothing disrespectful at all, just some friendly advise. Such a waste of time for them to do this and all is wrong. So thats why i suggest, learn from @Shadowra
This is not to target anyone or cause strife but a legitimate question.I think we should all learn to appreciate the work people are doing pro-bono, even when it doesn’t necessarily tickle our fancy. And then we should all learn and move on. Nobody gets it perfect 100% of time. The test albeit not great for comparison, is still beneficial to see how products react in different circumstances.
The light is not necessarily inaccurate. The developer provides these settings and products, and it is possible that a user may be running these. Products have not been damaged or in any way tampered with. Users are responsible for doing their own research, not all information has to be pre-chewed and put down their throat.If the testing methodology is flawed and reflects upon the product in a poor light when it's not accurate, how does this benefit anyone, user or company?
As stated above, this was not to reflect upon the OP of this thread and his test but just to point out that not all testers methods should be praised as their methods can cause more damage than produce good. This is to not sway the OP from further improvements and tests but to remind all that users learn from these and it reflects upon companies, and accuracy needs to be adjusted with this in mind. No offense was meant to anyone with these mentions.The light is not necessarily inaccurate. The developer provides these settings and products, and it is possible that a user may be running these.

For the next tests @ShenguiTurmi will do better.
I can’t agree with this statement. Providing any sort of information that has not been manipulated purposefully can’t and won’t cause damage to anyone. Again, it is the forum reader’s responsibility to conduct their research, try different products and discover what suits their budget and needs. There is a disclaimer on top as well. People that have come across MalwareTips and this thread are already knowledgeable enough to draw the right conclusions. The average Joe who thinks trojan horse is one virus and also the scariest won’t even reach this or any other test.As stated above, this was not to reflect upon the OP of this thread and his test but just to point out that not all testers methods should be praised as their methods can cause more damage than produce good.
I don't mind repeating what I said before out of courtesy:This "test" totally not representable at all. Mix of Hard / Normal settings..... please learn how to test by contacting @Shadowra , your test is a waste of time ( and time to read )
Next please.....
Next time, I will at least divide the Enterprise and Customer product lines into two diagrams and mark their settings directly on the diagram. As for the video, next time I will find friends living in Canada to help me post it on YouTube. Thank you for your suggestions.@ShenguiTurmi, Your tests are valid. Some products have default settings, while others have custom settings. When viewed individually, they serve as good product tests. However, the issue lies in the language (not English) and the graphical representation of the results. The graphical representation may give the impression of a comparative test, which can be misleading. I understand that this was not your intention, as you mentioned the specific products and configurations in your post. I suggest posting separate tests for home and business products, considering the settings (default or custom). Keep up the good work!
Thx a lot.I think we should all learn to appreciate the work people are doing pro-bono, even when it doesn’t necessarily tickle our fancy. And then we should all learn and move on.

not sure how aggressive my Di settings are, but ref non-malicious, I've only had 1 false positive in past 160 days, and Di was not wrong in blocking it.To be fair, Deep Instinct blocks basically everything (malicious / non-malicious) with most aggressive settings.
If you put Norton to all Aggressive, bet for sure all will be blocked ;-) keep it up !I don't mind repeating what I said before out of courtesy:
For consumer security software, keep the default settings except for Trend Micro, which has automatic highly sensitive toggling turned on by default, which is not realistic. Looking at the results, even if it's not turned off it doesn't make a difference as it still blocked all 5 binaries in the test on the non-highly sensitive setting.

Thx a lot.
May be, but I won't make any changes to the settings of consumer grade products.If you put Norton to all Aggressive, bet for sure all will be blocked ;-) keep it up !
Enterprise is NOT Norton, thats Symantec ( Broadcom ). Norton is LifeLock since years ( Gen )May be, but I won't make any changes to the settings of consumer grade products.
I never expected that the enterprise grade configuration (although it is our daily usage setting) would cause so much controversy.
I'm using the most aggressive settings possible since day one, and had quite a lot of false positives. I added all the exclusions necessary to prevent false alerts. Now it's running perfectly fine, as I barely install any new software.not sure how aggressive my Di settings are, but ref non-malicious, I've only had 1 false positive in past 160 days, and Di was not wrong in blocking it.
Yes, I know. But I don't have license for Symantec, so I didn't test it. Although it does not require activation authorization locally like FSCS/Trellix, I believe there may be some differences in whether to use the console (such as FSCS unable to set firewall and rollback policies without console).Enterprise is NOT Norton, thats Symantec ( Broadcom ). Norton is LifeLock since years ( Gen )
