ESET Secures Fourth Consecutive "Advanced+" Award in Performance Test from AV-Comparatives
ESET Tops the List with the Least Amount of System Impact.
- (1888PressRelease) December 19, 2011 - ESET proudly announces its fourth "Advanced+" award in performance testing from AV-Comparatives, an independent research organization. The latest test measured the impact on system performance of 20 antivirus products. In addition to receiving the highest possible number of "Advanced+" awards in performance testing, ESET has received more "Advanced+" awards in retrospective tests than any other vendor, which is given to products that have excellent heuristic detection rates and low false positives.
AV-Comparatives provide a three-level ranking system of "Standard," "Advanced" and "Advanced+" awards. To receive an "Advanced+" award, products in this particular test were compared based on how much impact the product has on a system. ESET tops the list as the product with the least amount of system impact.
"Over the years and throughout different tests, we've seen that ESET develops high-performing security solutions that have a small impact on system performance. Receiving once again the 'Advanced+' award in our most recent performance test is further validation." said Andreas Clementi, founder and chairman for AV-Comparatives. "Additionally, ESET has always understood the importance of strong heuristics in fighting malware and continues to be the vendor with the most amounts of 'Advanced+' awards in AV-Comparatives heuristic detection tests."
Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Aji Joseph, General Manager, ESET Middle East: "We are delighted, yet again, to receive our 4th consecutive 'Advanced+' award - another accolade added to our kitty of awards. For a long time now, ESET has been developing and delivering Security Solutions that keep us ahead in the game and will continue to do so in the future too."
