ESET Antivirus Continues Excellent Record
21 April 2010

In February 2010, ESET earned the title of the first Antivirus company to be accredited with 60 VB100 Awards and in the latest comparative test in April 2010 it has improved this to 61, detecting 100% of the 'In-The-Wild' viruses, worms and bots with zero false positives.

 

Virus Bulletin introduced its first VB100 award in 1998, and conducts several comparatives every year, rotating its platforms between Linux, Windows, Windows Servers and Novell Netware.  In order to display the VB100 logo, an antivirus product must meet two criteria: (1) demonstrate it detects all "In-The-Wild" viruses during both on-demand and on-access scanning and, (2) Generate no false positives when scanning a set of clean files. 


Since the inception of VB100 awards in 1998, ESET's antivirus products continue to boast a success rate of over 97% - the highest in the industry.  Most Antivirius vendors have success ratios in the 50-75% range. 



ESET is powered by ThreatSense technology; an advanced heuristics engine that enables proactive detection of malware not covered by even the most frequently updates signature-based products.  Unlike traditional approaches, ESET solutions decode and analyze executable code in real-time, using an emulated environment.  By allowing malware to execute in a secure virtual world, ESET is able to clearly differentiate between malicious benign files and even the most sophisticated and cleverly disguised malware.

 

ESET develops software solutions that deliver instant, comprehensive protection against evolving computer security threats.  ESET pioneered and continues to lead the industry in proactive threat detection.  ESET NOD32 Antivirus consistently achieved the highest accolades in all types of comparitive testing, and is the heart of the virus and spyware detection in ESET Smart Security.
