Welcome everyone!

Firstly, if you follow us, it will be good news for you that we have joined AMTSO officially. The May edition will now be official with AMTSO standards.

In the meantime, I have a summary for you from the March 2023 test and some highlights.

• Summary and conclusions.
  
• Recent results and threat landscape from the test.
  

Tested software for home and small office:

1. Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office
   
2. Avast Free Antivirus
   
3. Avira Antivirus Pro
   
4. Bitdefender Antivirus Free
   
5. F-Secure
   
6. Malwarebytes Premium
   
7. Microsoft Defender
   
8. Webroot Antivirus
   
9. Xcitium Internet Security
   

Solutions for business and government institutions:

1. Emsisoft Business Security
   
2. Malwarebytes Endpoint Protection
   
3. Xcitium ZeroThreat Advanced
   

In May, we are gonna to include: Kaspersky Plus, Quick Heal Total Security, G Data Total Protection and maybe more. Then, there should be new business solutions.

BETA feature: Individual producer information with Webroot as an example. I wanted to ask you for your opinion, what do you think, is this form of product presentation with details necessary? We have prepared this for you to extract in detail the so-called Remediation Time and maybe other interesting data in the future.

Just FYI - we'll update soon a Changelog website (to be more transparent for everyone) to add another interesting improvements on the backend. These changes has been made and tested to be ready to start the May test edition. For example, we have added an external 3rd party scanner, to better classify malware samples and better reject junks, PUA/PUP - in addition to what we have, i.e. Yara rules, Linux tools and black box analysis. And another one changes is added a new malware in the wild URL source. Be patient and wait for an update.

These improvements will be available for everyone, Vendors and Readers, based on data telemetry from test in May 2023 (a CSV file report with SHA256, as you have it now).

Feel free to ask for anything! [img]data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7[/img]
