That's it AV-TEST carried out a new series of tests to determine the best anti-virus for Windows 7. This time a total of 25 security products joined together with the number one operating system in the world.
As expected, its Security Essentials Microsoft, που διατίθεται με δωρεάν άδεια χρήσης στα Windows, χρησιμοποιήθηκε σαν προϊόν αναφοράς και σύγκρισης για το νέο γύρο των δοκιμών. Το προϊόν της Microsoft έλαβε 0 από 6 βαθμούς για την προστασία, 4 από 6 για τις επιδόσεις, και 6 μονάδες για τη χρηστικότητα.
In addition to a product that received the certification, AhnLab: V3 Internet Security 8.0, all others had relatively low performance during the test and of course the rating did not skyrocket, indicating that the protection afforded to users is minimal .
As far as protection is concerned, Trend Micro, G Data, McAfee, MicroWorld, F-Secure, Kaspersky, Qihoo, Bitdefender, and Avira have received the highest rankings.
Neither product managed to get the maximum possible score in the performance tests, but the Norton Internet Security 2014 της Symantec, το Tencent PC Managers 8.5, McAfee Internet Security 2014, Kaspersky Internet Security 2014, Qihoo 360 Internet Security 4.2, and Bitdefender Internet Security 2014 scored the highest.
From the point of view of usability, almost every anti-virus product tested has had impressive results, with the exception of Comodo Internet Security Premium 6.3 and Norman Security Suite Pro 10.1, which rank among the lowest score products.
The major winners of the new AV-TEST trial are Kaspersky Internet Security 2014 and Bitdefender Internet Security 2014, which received the highest scores for protection and usability and scored virtually perfect in performance tests.
The best free software anti-virus της αγοράς είναι για άλλη μια φορά Avira Internet Security 2014, το οποίο έλαβε επίσης μια πολύ καλή βαθμολογία στη προστασία και τη χρηστικότητα, αλλά πήρε μόνο 3,5 βαθμούς από τους 6 για τις επιδόσεις. Τόσο το AVG όσο και το avast!Free Antivirus 2014 τρέχουν αρκετά καλά, αλλά στην περίπτωση του τελευταίου, οι τεχνικοί ασφαλείας του έδωσαν μονο 3 βαθμούς για την προστασία που παρέχεται στους καταναλωτές που το χρησιμοποιούν υπολογιστές με λειτουργικό σύστημα Windows 7 64bit.
“During January and February 2014 we continuously evaluated 25 security products using their default settings. We always used the latest publicly available version for all the products we tested. We updated them and let them update themselves, from the cloud services that they use." said AV-TEST.
"We focused on realistic test scenarios and tested the products against real threats circulating on the Internet. The products had to prove their capabilities, using all the ingredients and protection layers. ”
