Virus Bulletin has released their latest VB100 awards
results for June. Just under forty
participants were tested. The test was done on Windows Server 2008. The previous test was done on Windows
XP.
There were only a handful
of companies whose tested product
failed to receive a VB100 award, AVG Technologies, Bkis, Commtouch, and
TrustPort.
A summary of the results is at the link below. You can buy the
full test results or subscribe to Virus Bulletin for the full results, as well.
Results from this should be looked at in conjunction with
tests from other test groups such as www.av-test.org
and www.av-comparatives.org . Also, it’s not how the company has performed on the
VB100 test over years. It’s only the
last couple of years that are relevant.
VB100 Test Methodology
The purpose of the VB100 comparative is to provide insight
into the relative performance of the solutions taking part in the tests,
covering as wide a range of areas as possible within the limitations of time
and available resources. More details
