![]() ![]() I use an algorithm that maps available lab results onto a scale from 0 to 10 and generates an aggregate result. Avast, AVG, and Bitdefender sweeps the field, with Advanced+ in all three tests. ![]() In the three tests I follow, G Data manages one apiece of Standard, Advanced, and Advanced+ certifications. Rather, a product that reaches the minimum necessary success achieves Standard certification, while those that go beyond the minimum can reach Advanced or Advanced+ certification. A dozen other products match G Data’s score, among them McAfee, Norton AntiVirus Plus, and Trend Micro.ĪV-Comparatives doesn’t take a numeric approach to scoring. ![]() G Data earns the maximum in all three categories, for a perfect 18-point total. Testers at AV-Test Institute look at antivirus products from three different perspectives, assigning up to six points for each of the criteria Protection, Performance, and Usability. In the latest report from this lab, every tested product reached AAA certification. Products can earn certification at five levels: AAA, AA, A, B, and C. This lab's researchers capture real-world web-based malware attacks and use a replay system to challenge each antivirus with precisely the same attack. At that time, SE Labs included G Data in its reports. G Data participates in testing with two of the four independent testing labs I follow, but not the same pair as when I last reviewed it.
