“As expected, detection rates were superb, with excellent coverage everywhere – even where they dipped slightly, in the proactive week of the RAP sets and in the last few days of the Response sets, they remained highly impressive. The WildList sets were  fully covered, and with no false alarms a VB100 award is easily earned.” (John Hawes, Test Team Director, Virus Bulletin)

Virus Bulletin started out in 1989 as a magazine dedicated to the anti-virus industry. Virus Bulletin quickly became the leading specialist testing body in the field of viruses and related malware. Today, Virus Bulletin is an online security information portal and certification body. Virus Bulletin provides users with independent intelligence about the latest developments in the anti-malware and anti-spam fields, as well as conducting bimonthly certifications of anti-malware and anti-spam products. Virus Bulletin is supported by an Advisory Board comprising some of the world’s leading anti-malware and anti-spam experts.

The latest chart is available here on the Virus Bulletin homepage.

The test measures products’ detection rates across four distinct sets of malware samples. The first three test sets comprise malware first seen in each of the three weeks prior to product submission. These measure how quickly product developers and labs react to the steady flood of new malware emerging every day across the world. A fourth test set consists of malware samples first seen in the week after product submission. This test set is used to gauge products’ ability to detect new and unknown samples proactively, using heuristic and generic techniques.
