Eset receives another VB100 awards

ESET NOD32 Antivirus has achieved 58 Virus Bulletin VB100 Awards. In Virus Bulletin's comparative tests, ESET NOD32 Antivirus has not missed an 'In the Wild' virus sample since May 1998.

ESET, the leader in proactive threat protection, has captured a record 58th VB100 award from Virus Bulletin, a widely-respected independent comparative testing group.

Virus Bulletin introduced its first VB100 award in 1998, and conducts several comparatives every year, rotating its platforms between Linux, Windows, Windows servers and Novell Netware. In order to display the VB100 logo, an antivirus product must meet two criteria: (1) Demonstrate it detects all "In-the-Wild" viruses during both on-demand and on-access scanning; and, (2) Generate no false positives when scanning a set of clean files. Since the inception of VB100 awards in 1998, ESET's antivirus products continue to boast a success rate of over 96 percent - the industry's highest. Most antivirus vendors have success ratios in the 50 – 75 percent range.

"ESET's NOD32 has an excellent history in VB100 testing, with excellence in both detection rates and speeds," said John Hawes, Virus Bulletin. "Detection rates in the expanded polymorphic sets were impeccable, and fairly reasonable in the trojan and RAP sets. With the WildList covered with no difficulties and no false positives or other issues, ESET earns another VB100."

ESET is powered by ThreatSense® technology, an advanced heuristics engine that enables proactive detection of malware not covered by even the most frequently updated signature-based products. Unlike traditional approaches, ESET solutions decode and analyze executable code in real-time, using an emulated environment. By allowing malware to execute in a secure virtual world, ESET is able to clearly differentiate between benign files and even the most sophisticated and cleverly-disguised malware.
