[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1117305, member: 32260"] It is possible that the term "test" means something else to me and you. So, I can see some obvious errors. For example, the test results should not depend on the order of executed samples. Also, the test with 200 samples, should not end after executing half of the available samples. I do not think that Leo intended to do a real test. He was simply curious if Microsoft Defender could protect against all gathered samples. In the video, Leo demonstrated that after running (one by one) about 100 fresh ransomware samples Microsoft Defender's default protection was bypassed. He did not test other AVs on those samples, so we cannot relate the result to other AVs. It is impossible to conclude from this test if the result is good or not. As a test, the video is pretty much useless. Most MT readers already know that any AV can be often bypassed after running 100 fresh malware samples. As a demonstration, it can be useful for some users (it was useful for me): [URL unfurl="true"]https://malwaretips.com/threads/windows-defender-vs-top-200-ransomware-pc-security-channel.134786/post-1117260[/URL] Post edited/updated.
