Performance (Speed Impact) and False-Positives Tests. Full details of test

methodologies and results are provided in the report.

The threat landscape continues to evolve rapidly, presenting antivirus vendors

with new challenges. The test report shows how security products have adapted

to these and improved protection over the years.

To be certified in July 2022 as an 'Approved Business Product' by

AV-Comparatives, the tested products must score at least 90% in the Malware

Protection Test, with zero false alarms on common business software, a rate

below 'Remarkably High' for false positives on non-business files and must

score at least 90% in the overall Real-World Protection Test over the course of

four months, with less than one hundred false alarms on clean software/websites.

Endpoint security solutions for enterprise and SMB from 18 leading vendors were

put through the Business Main-Test Series

[https://www.av-comparatives.org/enterprise/latest-tests/ ] 2022H1: Acronis,

Avast, Bitdefender, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Cybereason, Elastic, ESET, G Data, K7,

Kaspersky, Malwarebytes, Microsoft, Sophos, Trellix, VIPRE, VMware and

WatchGuard.

Real-World Protection Test: The Real-World Protection Test is a long-term test

run over a period of four months. It tests how well the endpoint protection

software can protect the system against Internet-borne threats.

Malware Protection Test:

The Malware Protection Test requires the tested products to detect malicious

programs that could be encountered on the company systems, e.g. on the local

area network or external drives.

Performance Test:

Performance Test checks that tested products do not provide protection at the

expense of slowing down the system.

False Positives Test:

For each of the protection tests, a False Positives Test is run. These ensure

that the endpoint protection software does not cause significant numbers of

false alarms, which can be particularly disruptive in business networks.

Ease of Use Review:

The report also includes a detailed user-interface review of each product,

providing an insight into what it is like to use in typical day-to-day

management scenarios.

Overall, AV-Comparatives' July Business Security Test 2022

[https://www.av-comparatives.org/tests/business-security-test-2022-march-june/

] report provides IT managers and CISOs with a detailed picture of the

strengths and weaknesses of the tested products, allowing them to make informed

decisions on which ones might be appropriate for their specific needs.

The next awards will be given to qualifying December 2022H2 (for

August-November tests). Like all AV-Comparatives' public test reports, the

Enterprise & Business Endpoint Security Report is available universally and for

free.
