At the end of every year, AV-Comparatives releases a Summary Report to comment on the various consumer anti-virus products tested over the course of the year, and to highlight the high-scoring products of the different tests that took place over the twelve months. Please bear in mind that this report considers all the Consumer Main-Test Series of 2022, i.e. not just the latest ones. Comments and conclusions are based on the results shown in the various comparative test reports, as well as from observations made during the tests (https://www.av-comparatives.org/consumer/test-methods/).
