The latest edition of Virus Bulletin magazine has awarded Sophos Endpoint Security the prestigious VB100 award for detecting all the in-the-wild viruses without false alarming. The magazine has described Sophos’ recently published investigation of 43 anti-virus products on the Windows 7 platform as their "biggest month of testing ever", producing an exhaustive 27 page report, examining the detection abilities of different security solutions. In addition, Sophos has also achieved a perfect 100% score against worms, bots and polymorphic malware.
Sophos' performance in Virus Bulletin's RAP (Reactive and Proactive) test remained even more impressive, which helped users form a better impression of the heuristic and generic proactive detection capability of security software.
In this test, Sophos has achieved a ranking of 73.2%, higher than any other product tested.
