Surprises in its established monthly antivirus tests AV-TEST:
Kaspersky Lab completed this test round by taking the maximum score as it achieved by 6 points, the highest score in tests for protection, performance and usability.
But the surprise we mentioned in the previous paragraph came from the Chinese company security firm AhnLab, whose V3 Internet Security software managed to catch Kaspersky in performance, receiving the top score.
Thus AhnLab's software scored better than almost all known security products (Bitdefender, Symantec, Avira and ESET).
The following four companies came close to the maximum score of 17,5 points: Symantec, McAfee, Bitdefender and Avira, while VIPRE Security and Trend Micro received a total of 17 points.
Symantec and McAfee products have had similar performance with 6 degrees in protection and usability, but only 5,5 units for performance while Bitdefender achieved the maximum result in 2 first trials but has earned just 5,5 units in usability.
Microsoft's antivirus once again fell far behind with a score of 14 points, although Windows Defender outperformed its security solution Comfortable, which only got 13 points. Windows Defender received 5 points for protection and performance and 4 points for usability.
