What Color Hose Should I Wear With Black Skirt

week is the best antivirus?

Talking tough questions, or rather .. talking about complicated answers. I wonder if my antivirus there is no better than a trained user. A user with knowledge of what does and a few basic tools can be safe from most of the problems. But logically, this is my humble opinion, like mine there are many more, and among them is that of "ShadowServer Foundation

"

The ShadowServer Foundation is an organization that brings together security experts and among many other tasks that make , is evaluating different antivirus program against several thousands of infected files. The good news is that these tests are performed with different time periods and different number of arhiva. While the daily tests (results which are below) are on about 135000 files must be reviewed within 24 hours, there is also a test on more than 6,000,000 files where antivirus products have up to 6 months for review.

is interesting to review all the statistics (daily, weekly, monthly and so on) for a more comprehensive idea of \u200b\u200bthe situation. Doing a quick summary is interesting as always ClamAV above Panda and McAfee, and although the top constantly changing from test to test, Nod32 and always kept up AVG7 at the top.

It is noteworthy that these tests do not really determine the best antivirus for a job as antivirus solutions are not only used its database of signatures to detect a virus. There are already several products that are able to analyze the "behavior" of the processes and based on these determine whether they are a potential virus or malware and blocks.

But if such tests are very important when thinking about antivirus solutions for mail servers, proxy servers, or to add a virus to a server with shared resources, because for this type of signature detection services is the best (if not the only) way of detecting viruses. For such situations, this type of evidence should eventually prove decisive. Checking

ShadowServer.org page we will also find other statistics that do, such as statistics DDOS attacks, botnets and many others. For example the following is one of the graphs generated where the number of botnets muestasn




I have not checked the page or too much detail, but the agenda for review more relaxed when I get home.
