Comparison of cloud management consoles
The use of cloud-based management consoles for business security products is becoming more and more popular. These consoles have the advantage of being installation and maintenance-free, and don’t require additional company resources (such as a server) to operate. They require no further on-premise security measures, such as firewall configuration, and work equally well on devices inside and outside the company LAN – a significant advantage in the era of mobile computing and an obvious benefit for companies with mobile or remote workforces.

Performance Test Windows 7

Anti-Spam Test (Consumer Products) 2016
Spam can be defined as unsolicited emails sent en masse. These may be sent for advertising purposes, in which case they may be seen as irritating but harmless. They may attempt to deceive the recipient into sending money to the scammer; typical examples are pretending to be a friend or relative who has lost their wallet while abroad, and so needs money to get home, or claiming that by paying a relatively small administration fee, the recipient will receive a much larger sum as lottery winnings. Other malicious spam emails may contain links to phishing pages or malware, or simply include malware as an attachment.
In this first Anti-Spam Test Report, AV-Comparatives had a look at 13 consumer anti-spam products for their ability to filter out spam emails.
Microsoft-prevalence-based analysis of the File Detection Test
This Microsoft-prevalence-based analysis report is supplementary to AV-Comparatives’ main report, already published, of the March 2016 File-Detection Test. No additional testing has been performed; rather, the existing test result have been re-analysed from a different perspective, to consider what impact the missed samples are likely to have on customers, according to telemetry data of Microsoft.
Microsoft commissioned this supplementary report. In this report, customer impact is measured according to prevalence. Essentially, some malware samples pose a greater threat to the average user than others, because they are more widespread. An impact heatmap can be found on https://impact.av-comparatives.org
