AV-Comparatives released their latest Performance Test Report for consumer security products under Microsoft Windows 10.
17 consumer products were tested regarding their impact on system performance. But keep in mind: Protection is more important than speed!
We released our Consumer Malware Protection Test. Any samples that have not been detected e.g. on-access are executed on the test system. A false alarm test is also included. While in the Real-World Protection Test the vector is the web, in the Malware Protection Test the vectors can be e.g. network drives, USB or cover scenarios where the malware is already on the disk.
The first factsheet results (for February/March) of the ongoing Consumer Real-World Protection Test are now available! The full results will be published in June.

As the number and complexity of advanced persistent threats increase, so does the importance of endpoint detection and response systems. AV-Comparatives has developed a comprehensive methodology for testing enterprise-class EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) systems, with tests commencing mid-Q2 2020, and results being published around the end of Q3 2020. AV-Comparatives have been working closely with the IT security teams, security practitioners and security operation centre (SOC) personnel of typical enterprises that already employ EDR systems or are planning to do so in the future.
AV-Comparatives’ Security Conference and Award Ceremony for 2019 was held on the 3rd and 4th of February 2020, at the Hotel Klosterbräu, Seefeld in Tirol. Around 40 security experts from all over the world attended.
