The threat landscape continues to evolve rapidly, presenting antivirus vendors with new challenges. The test report shows how security products have adapted to these, and improved protection over the years.
When it comes to enterprise cybersecurity, the Business Main-Test Series from AV-Comparatives is a pioneering test in the present scenario. Its real real-world protection test imitates online malware attacks encountered by typical business users. The malware protection test is based around the assumption that the malware pre-exists on the disk or enters the test system via the removable devices or LAN. Finally, the performance test evaluates the impact each tested product on system performance. False-positive tests were also conducted to prevent the identification of legitimate software as harmful by the products.
