Since 2008 - like other professional independent testers do - we charge a fee (to be paid by the vendors or third parties) for various services we provide e.g. to vendors in order to cover our costs and time/work involved. The fee has of course no influence at all on the results.
Below you will find some press releases (based on test data provided by AV-Comparatives) or reports of single product tests or special tests and whitepapers.
