The 2007 SC Magazine Readers Choice Awards brought in over 500 nominations this year. ESET is honored to be a finalist in the Best Anti-Malware Solutions Category. The Winners will be announced on February 6, 2007 at the Hilton in San Francisco. |
|
ESET has achieved 40 Virus Bulletin VB 100% awards, more than any other vendor. In Virus Bulletin's comparative tests, ESET's product has not missed an 'In the Wild' virus sample since May 1998.
|
 |
In an independent test by AV-Comparatives NOD32 has consistently achieved the best results among all tested brands. "NOD32 is the leader in Advanced+ awards, having received top honors in each of the last five tests. This represents the most proactive malware detection capabilities of all the products tested over the last 12 months." |
|
ICSA (A division of TruSecure Corporation) use
a very similar testing methodology to Virus Bulletin. Whereas the
VB 100% is awarded to a specific product on a “snapshot”
basis, with no failure correction period allowed, ICSA Certification
concentrates more on requiring a product to achieve and maintain a
particular level. |
|
ESET was the second company to be certified
against this rigorous test set of more than 28,000 spyware objects.
In fact, NOD32 had a significant lead over dedicated spyware applications.
The Checkmark certification is operated by West Coast Labs, a division
of West Coast Publishing. |
|
West Coast Labs has a virus library with many
thousands of different viruses and variants, collected through a bespoke
harvesting process. For a product to be certified to Anti-Virus Checkmark,
Level One the product must be able to detect all those viruses which
are "In the Wild". This gives a clear and independent indication
to end users of those anti-virus products that they can be relied
on to perform to Level One functionality
For a product to be certified Anti-Virus Checkmark, Level Two the
product must comply with Anti-Virus Checkmark, Level One and, in addition,
disinfect all viruses on the "in the wild" list which are
capable of disinfection. Disinfection means: That the virus is (or
is substantially) removed from the infected object and the object
is usable; the application/program should not hang or crash the machine,
the machine should boot up correctly, the document should so far as
possible be restored to its former uninfected state without loss of
data. |
|
For a product to be certified to the Trojan
Checkmark the product must be able to detect all Trojans in the West
Coast Labs Trojan test suite, which is regularly updated. The product
should not cause any false alarms (based on testing against the West
Coast Labs false alarm test suite). |
|
ESET is named the antivirus manufacturer of
the year by PC Magazine Middle East for 2005. |

In its November 2003 Antivirus Test Comparison,
PC Chip Croatia rated NOD32 as the #1 performer in both speed and
detection . . . ahead of antivirus industry heavyweights Norton, McAfee,
TrendMicro, Kaspersky, AVG, eTrust, H+BEDV, Panda, and Sophos.
"Since the beginning NOD32 was rudely neglected in favor of
"big names" - the famous web site Cnet went so far as to
bury NOD32 as a third class program with doubtful quality - but they
could not have gone further from the truth, because NOD32 is the winner
of many awards and cerificates from the most respected independent
labs and groups in the antivirus industry." wrote the PC Chip
Editor in his review. |

Chosen as the BEST ANTIVIRUS PROGRAM OF 2001 by
PC User Magazine of Australia. "In PC User's most recent antivirus
tests, only one program provided 100% protection against all viruses
in a very large test set --- NOD32." Not surprising since NOD32
is the only product to have never missed an "In The Wild"
virus during Virus Bulletin Testing.
"NOD32 also has effective
heuristics to protect against unknown viruses, and the company is really
on the ball with updates." Next Generation Antivirus programs use
advanced heuristics to detect new Viruses, Worms, Trojans and assorted
Malware - NOD32 has the most advanced heuristics available.
"The
penalty for thorough scanning is normally a longer scan time, but NOD32
was the fastest as well as the most thorough." NOD32 avoids the
baggage carried by most other programs - written in machine code NOD32
scans the executable files at least two times faster than any other
antivirus product available.
"Is it any wonder we awarded NOD32
as PC User's Best Antivirus Program of 2001?" Actually it is a
very pleasant surprise to see a major publication willing to acknowledge
the superior performance of a product that doesn't spend any money advertising
in it.
"NOD32, more than any other program, is simply a must-have!!!" |
