for Trellix
The AV-TEST Award – valuable confirmation of consistent IT security
Vendors, companies and users all expect a test structure that is constantly transparent and understandable, and AV-TEST fulfils every aspect of these expectations. All of the products tested at the AV-TEST Institute are subjected to a clearly defined test structure. The results of the tests are clearly documented, valid and authoritative. In the entire year 2023, the institute examined and evaluated security products at regular intervals in the test areas of Protection, Performance and Usability, using Windows, Mac and Android platforms. As an additional series of tests, the Advanced Threat Protection tests identify the special defensive capabilities of products, for example their ability to fend off ransomware or data stealers, in extremely detailed individual examinations.
All products that meet AV-TEST’s high criteria are awarded a certificate for tested security against IT threats. Products with achievements clearly above the industry standard when tested under Windows are additionally rewarded with the “TOP PRODUCT” label. At the end of 2023, all of the values recorded and labels awarded were combined to determine the winners of the AV-TEST Awards.
2024 is a special year for AV-TEST, marking the company’s 20th anniversary and its thirteenth award ceremony. At this year’s ceremony, 33 strong awards are being presented to 14 different vendors. Over the past twenty years, AV-TEST has conducted thousands of highly professional tests in its laboratories and published an abundance of expert reports. These have, in turn, provided IT security specialists and IT publications with a reliable source of information time and time again. Throughout the twenty years of the AV-TEST Institute to date, many vendors have also used the test certificates and awards presented by the company as evidence of their trustworthy status among retailers, traders and buyers.
AV-TEST Award for Trellix – outstanding IT security
When companies opt for a Windows solution, security is always the top priority. Because successful malware attacks damage not only the image of a company but normally also result in financial losses as well. All the more reason for the lab at AV-TEST to examine security software for corporate users in several areas – including protection. It is in this area that the Trellix solution always proved itself convincingly in the tests throughout the year 2023. For the consistent top performance in keeping corporate environments safe, the lab at AV-TEST thus conferred on Trellix Endpoint Security the Best Protection Award for Corporate Users under Windows.
“Only products delivering continuously strong protection performance in our labs are allowed to be contenders for an award. The results of our tests clearly show that Trellix Endpoint Security earned the Best Protection Award for Corporate Users. The team from AV-TEST congratulates Trellix on this especially coveted award in the test category of protection", says Maik Morgenstern, CEO of AV-TEST.
