Over a period of two months, the AV-TEST laboratory examined 20 enterprise security solutions for Windows 10 and 18 packages for individual PCs for Windows 10. In the test period of March and April 2022, the products were assessed and awarded the AV-TEST certificate if they met the test standard.
In March and April 2022, the AV-TEST Institute tested a total of 38 security solutions - and thus almost all important programs on the market - for private users and companies under Windows 10. The detailed results show how well the products performed in the areas of 'Protection', 'System load' (Performance) and 'Usability'.

Each individual program had to repel over 22.000 real malware attacks, taking into account all protection features such as URL/Web filtering, behavior-based detection and heuristics in the test against zero-day threats and common malware. In the counter-check, over 1,5 million benign websites and files were checked that should not be recognized (false alarm test - false positive).
