ESET has achieved 46 Virus Bulletin VB100 Awards, more than any other vendor. In Virus Bulletin's comparative tests, ESET NOD32 Antivirus has not missed an 'In the Wild' virus sample since May 1998.
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.
In an independent test by AV-Comparatives, ESET NOD32 Antivirus has consistently achieved the best results among all tested brands. "ESET NOD32 Antivirus 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, ESET NOD32 Antivirus 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).
The award was given based on readers' votes against a number of antivirus products, and ESET NOD32 Antivirus is the most popular product here which gets most votes from readers and IT users, beating the other products such as Symantec, TrendMicro, and McAfee.
