Virus Bulletin runs some of the most respected tests in the Anti-Virus world as a neutral authority. One of those is a monthly test of programs that protect from malware which has been run on Windows 2008 Server
R2 SP1 for June 2012. The security tools in the test have to detect unexceptional all samples of a wild list and may not give a single false alert while scanning a huge amount of normal files. Therefore the VB100 Award is a decoration that is very hard to obtain and so only a few first-class security tools receive it.
We are proud to announce that Emsisoft Anti-Malware has once again achieved the VB100 award in June 2012. Here are some excerpts of the result:
- The current version measured 128MB, and installed with just a couple of clicks; the interface [...] is reasonably easy to navigate, providing a decent basic level of controls.
- Speeds were very quick on demand, with generally very light overheadson access…
- Detection rates were as excellent as we have come to expect from this product [...] with very impressive RAP and Response scores.
