The risk of malicious software Most organizations are aware of the risk threatening their IT environment. Viruses, Trojans, Worms, Exploits and many others threats represent a serious risk for the IT department. A collapse of the IT systems could mean grave financial losses right up to insolvency for a company. The IT departments of companies are conscious about this problem. Getting the best protection against this threat is the only issue. An Anti-Virus safeguard alone is far too inadequate. There are too many threats starting from contaminated e-mails, exploits etc. What is required is comprehensive protection suite against all of these. Functional Diversity Because of the immense functional diversity of various Anti-Virus suites and corporate products, it is becoming increasingly difficult for decision-makers in the IT sector to get a proper overview. Which product should one opt for and for which area of application? During these tests our main focus has not been on detection rates but, instead, on the products with respect to their handling and user-friendliness and the scope of functionality. We have compiled the functional scope of various products in an extensively detailed table. For detection rates of individual products please refer to our website http://www.av-comparatives.org under the tab “Main Tests” 3
