Introduction
MRG Effitas is a world leader independent IT research company having a core focus on AV efficacy assessments both inthe traditional “Real World” malware detection capabilities and inthe financial fraud prevention area.
The methodology employed in this test maps closely to Real World practice representing the valid threads endangering anyone using Windows operating system.This evaluation is aimed to help users choosing the most suitable security application.This Programme is called “360 Assessment&Certification” since it tests the security applications capabilities with afull spectrum of attack vectors. In the 360 Assessment, trojans, backdoors, spyware, financial malware, ransomware and “other” malicious applications are allused. Along side the traditional In-The-Wild (ITW) file-based attacks, our evaluation also contains scenarios where fileless cases and exploitation techniques,l ive botnets and financial malware simulators are also applied. Besides the malicious attacks, in order to evaluate the practical accuracy of AV products, they were exposed to potentially unwanted applications (PUAor Greyware) and clean files (FP) as well. Additionally, besides security capabilities tests, our assessment measured the footprint each security software on acomputer’s performance.
