The balance between performance (low speed-impact) and real-time detection
In the past, a common complaint about antivirus programs was that they had a major impact on system performance, i.e. made the PC run more slowly in everyday use. Nowadays, anti-virus products use different optimization techniques to reduce system impact and disruption of everyday tasks.

To this end, we checked whether anti-virus products consistently detect malware in specific scenarios.
