AV-Test.org’s testing of security software consisted of several trials, including those for the effectiveness of malware detection and removal, the number of false positive detections, and resource usage. Kaspersky Internet Security achieved 100% results in detection of zero-day and widespread malware, and also effectively detected and removed all active components of malicious programs on an already infected PC. AV-Test.org also recorded no false positive detections by Kaspersky Internet Security when checked against a collection of more than 480 000 clean files. Other products incorrectly identified as malicious an average of 15 legitimate files.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security 8 for Windows, the corporate security solution for Windows-based desktops, also achieved 100% results in both detection of widespread and new malware and in removal of active components of malicious programs. The test for false positive detections saw Kaspersky Endpoint Security 8 for Windows return the perfect result – zero – while other products flagged three clean objects as malicious on average.
