December 2011 - ESET, the leader in proactive protection against cyber-threats, has been awarded the prestigious “VB100“ award from Virus Bulletin - UK’s independent testing antivirus authority. The latest award is ESET’s 71st, adding to its long track record of great results in this testing. ESET NOD32 Antivirus holds the world record of VB100 Awards of all security solution vendors.
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.
(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 97 percent - the industry's highest.
