ESET has been rigorously tested and named a Strategic Leader in the AV-Comparatives Endpoint Prevention and Response (EPR) Comparative Report 2024. This marks the fourth time ESET has achieved this prestigious ranking, reinforcing its position among the best in the industry.

We’re proud to see our efforts recognized, and we remain dedicated to innovation and excellence in cybersecurity.”

The 2024 AV-Comparatives report evaluated 12 security solutions, including ESET PROTECT Enterprise, across 50 sophisticated attack scenarios. ESET achieved outstanding results by detecting and neutralizing 98% of threats during the earliest phase of attacks, with the remaining 2% successfully mitigated in the second phase. By preventing threats from advancing any further, early prevention by ESET ensured that no asset breaches occurred and no malicious activity went unnoticed. These results positioned ESET PROTECT among the highest scoring in Prevention and Response. The performance ensures that ESET continues to set a benchmark for prevention, detection, and response capabilities.

“ESET’s strong performance in the 2024 EPR Test highlights their dedication to delivering effective and reliable protection against advanced threats. Their consistent success reflects a solid commitment to cybersecurity excellence,” said Andreas Clementi, Founder and CEO of AV-Comparatives.
