AVLab - Best antiviruses 2020 for business and home to protect Windows 10 - May 20
#1
Bug 
Quote:[Image: AVLab-logo.svg]

We carried out three tests of security in March and April 2020 from which we publish right now a list of popular antiviruses to secure workstations, and home computers. The test includes 12 specialized solutions for individual users and 9 products for medium and large business.

Studies carried out we a response to the observed trends of threats in the first quarter of 2020: cybercriminals still continue to racketeering through attacks involving encryption viruses. Additionally, they use malicious code hiding in office documents. The tendency of encrypting files through ransomware has become more dangerous because during global paralysis of social life, hospitals and universities are attacked, and the effects of researcher’s work are irretrievably lost.

  1. ARCABIT Internet Security
  2. AVIRA Antivirus Pro
  3. AVIRA Prime
  4. COMODO Internet Security
  5. EMSISOFT Anti-Malware
  6. MICROSOFT Windows Defender Antivirus
  7. MKS_VIR Internet Security
  8. SECUREAPLUS Pro
  9. SOPHOS Home Premium

  7. G DATA Endpoint Protection Business
  8. KASPERSKY Endpoint Security Cloud

Main objectives of the test

The verification of security effectiveness of popular applications to protect personal computers and workstations against most common threats and cyberattacks since the beginning of 2020.

In the last quarter, cybercriminals understood that in order to avoid detection by traditional security tools, they need to combine popular types of malicious software with modern techniques of attacking. According to the reports of global IT companies, fileless attacks will be very a common phenomenon in the coming quarters. Using this type of security deception has increased by several hundred percent as Trend Micro observed in late December 2019. Tools to automatic search vulnerabilities in applications programmed by hackers are now more technically capable than before. They are also harder to observe because require no user interaction in order to execute malicious code.

Destroying the work of universities, public hospitals, and private clinics that try together to isolate diseases, is an acute problem. It is difficult to understand what primitive motives are driven by criminals, and why they turn against science and healthcare. The actions of online criminals have negative consequences in the economy as we could observe in recent weeks. Major news services wrote about incidents of forcing ransom healthcare and education institutions in exchange for encrypting data lost as a result of a cyberattack.

Trends in cyberthreats in 2020 underline the need for invest in solutions that will allow users to provide detailed reporting of significant changes to systems and networks. Developers and providers of IT solutions should take responsibility for solutions that are provided to companies and end users. On the other hand, enterprises must understand the risk, and start to protect themselves proactively against attack, and also mitigate the effects of potential attacks. Most organizations cannot afford to keep basic security to protect network, not to mention maintaining 24-hour units of monitoring infrastructure security. Companies should consider collaborating with an experience provider of security services who will help them protect IT systems against modern cyberattacks.
