Whilst the majority of such attacks may be ultimately aimed at infiltrating enterprise networks, an obvious means of doing this is to target the personal computers of staff members within the organisation. These are complex, multi-stage attacks that are aimed at a specific individual or organisation. The Advanced Threat Protection Test checks each security product’s ability to protect a computer against targeted attacks, which are known as “advanced persistent threats” (APTs). Of these, Avast, AVG, ESET, Kaspersky and McAfee consumer products reached the highest ADVANCED+ rating. Tested consumer security programs includes : Avast Free Antivirus AVG Free Antivirus Bitdefender Internet Security ESET Internet Security G Data Total Security Kaspersky Internet Security McAfee Total Protection VIPRE Advanced Security.

Tested Enterprise Endpoint Security Products include: Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud with Advanced Security Pack Avast Business Antivirus Pro Plus Bitdefender Gravity Zone Elite CrowdStrike Falcon Pro ESET PROTECT Entry with ESET PROTECT Cloud G Data Endpoint Protection Business Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business – Select with KSC VIPRE Endpoint Cloud.Īll the enterprise products listed above blocked at least eight out of fifteen advanced attacks, and so received AV-Comparatives’ ATP Enterprise Certification. A false alarm test is also included in the reports.
All our tests use a subset of the TTP (Tactics, Techniques, Procedures) listed in the MITRE ATT&CK(TM) framework. These attacks can be broken down into Lockheed Martin’s Cybersecurity Kill Chain, and seven distinct phases – each with unique IOCs (Indicators of Compromise) for the victims. In the Advanced Threat Protection Tests, AV-Comparatives use hacking and penetration techniques that allow attackers to access internal computer systems. The misuse of legitimate system programs for malicious purposes also makes it easier for cybercriminals to stay under the radar of security measures.

Disguising malicious code also makes it hard for a security program to recognise. These include fileless attacks, code obfuscation, and the use of legitimate operating-system tools. Targeted attacks employ various different techniques to avoid detection by security software. Eight consumer-antivirus products and eight enterprise endpoint-security programs for Windows were put through their paces.ĪV-Comparatives’ Advanced Threat Protection Test uses a variety of different attack scenarios, which the tested programs have to defend against. AV-Comparatives has released the results of its 2021 Advanced Threat Protection Tests.
