The reputable German AV-Test Institut of Magdeburg regularly tests antivirus products against a number of criteria: detection, false alarms, speed, usability and burden on resources.

So these are the latest comparison test results as they refer to 17 antivirus products for Windows 10 64 bit systems.

 All candidates comfortably achieved the minimum pass grade.

AVIRA and AhnLab achived the maximum 18 points.

Just behind them come: Kaspersky, McAfee and Trend Micro.

All 5 earn the title “Top Product”.

Windows Defender only lost half a point in each category, but that was enough to push it to the bottom third of the results.

The following also got full marks for protection (but lost in other categories): Bitdefender, BullGuard, MicroWorld eScan, Norton Security, Vipre and F-Secure. Bitdefender lost a full point for giving too many false positives, F-Secure considerably more.
