GEC NEWS WIREKaspersky Small Office Security Gets High Scores in Three of the Latest Tests
Dennis Technology Labs test has awarded Kaspersky Small Office Security an AAA certificate. During testing, experts not only looked at each product’s response to harmless or malicious programs and websites but also calculated a total accuracy rating.
Kaspersky Small Office Security produced no false positives, while blocking all infection attempts. As a result, it was the only solution to achieve the highest possible Total Accuracy Rating of 1016 points. The testing methodology used by AV-Test evaluates security products on three criteria: usability, performance and protection. In testing carried out by AV-Test, usability traditionally means the absence of false positives. Since Kaspersky Small Office Security produced none, it received 6 points out of 6. The product achieved the same score for its protection level, which was tested using two collections – zero-day threats and widespread malware discovered in the last 4 weeks. The Kaspersky Lab solution also achieved the maximum possible score in the performance category: it did not have a significant effect on system performance.
“For products designed for small businesses, a unanimity of opinion is particularly important because small companies, which do not often have a system administrator of their own, tend to rely on a broad range of reviews when selecting a product to protect their IT infrastructure,” comments Timur Biyachuev, Director of Anti-Malware research, Kaspersky Lab.
