Can you speak to the actual runtime efficiency of these as well? A simplistic test would be to use the CPU time metric (can be added in taskmgr; it's cumulative for the process lifetime; it's scaled per-process core) and just provide a Delta for how much CPU time was required during your malware test. E.g if software X took 5 cpu-minutes, but another took 4, than that's very useful to know.

From my experience with Kaspersky, I'd move it down a tier. Far from perfect with the UI and it uses the rule of "if i kill EVERYTHING then nothing can harm". He likes to block programs from accessing some protocols (even CMD for that matter) and tells you nothing. So often you try to find solutions and look at the firewall and such, when it was Kaspersky all along. That's my point of view.

It would be really helpful if you could include each product’s privacy as well as system performance & resource usage to give us a complete ranking - that would help in making decisions. Evaluating them only on test results doesn’t really help because as users we still have to worry about whether the AV is also spyware, and also how much it hijacks our system resources instead of keeping them available for us to use. These considerations are every bit as important.
@roughriderdave

Yes I agree completely. The resource usage is critical, while the efficiency plays an important topic as well. To some users, it could be a deal breaker if it bogs the computer down too much, while some may just find a sweet spot for end result to time needed. Another thing is ads. I'm not referring to the free versions with the ads to upgrade to a full license. I'm referring to a paid subscription that still pops up with ads to purchase additional software from their company. Nobody likes ads, and it really shouldn't come from software that should actually be eliminating pop up ads.

I absolutely agree with you. Every business ecosystem and personal computer is different. A gamer will require little overhead and as much performance as possible, as would someone with aging hardware. Sometimes there is no option to upgrade computers etc due to business critical custom software and hardware locked licencing methods. Personally I believe there should be two charts. One for Generic Business(Server and several end users over 2 or 3 physical sites) and another for your everyday home user who will not bother with OS reinstalls, only clicking "Yes upgrade to the latest OS version now" button. In an ideal world you would have multiple Antivirus software installed with each one using different methods to protect/scan your system/data. However there is very little information about what is compatible with what concurrently and the performance impact. Maybe this is an idea for a future video.

I knew it was there, I saw the web browser redirects, embedded DLLs (that would regenerate if I tried to manually delete them), and start-up executions, but Norton refused to detect anything and said, 'No infections detected!' (lol) I uninstalled Norton that day, alternated between Avast/AVG (depending on PC), got things cleaned up (along with help from Spybot S&D), and never looked back. I honestly expected Norton to be *lower*. Speaking of SS&D, it has an anti-virus in the paid version, does it not? I wonder how it would rank on this list.

Hi Leo, I understand F-Secure now uses the Avira engine (though, they used to use Bitdefender, and before that F-Prot and AVP/Kaspersky alongside their own engine, Orion). If you look at the signature names used by F-Secure recently, they correlate with the Avira engine.

I've used Kaspersky, Dr. Web, Malwarebytes and Windows Defender throughout over 20 years of PC experience, and as I see it, either you get a snappy fast nigh-unnoticeable WinDefender that almost doesn't slow your machine in any daily task or a resource-hungry rhino of an antivirus like Kaspersky that makes you remember the days when CPUs were single-cored and everything ran from an HDD depending on how heavy you want your "armor" to be, with a range of other various AVs in between. I personally switched fully to WinDef around 2016~ish, and didn't have any problems, but then again, it's just a home PC and laptop, not a type of machines that will be specifically targeted, and the only problem they may encounter is the one sitting in the chair in front of the monitor.

Honestly, I have a feeling that more I learn about IT security, I see no point of comparing endpoint security solutions as they are pretty much all the same. They will protect you only from the randomly spreading threats. Once the threat becomes more complex, they will only serve as privileged app to make malicious reconfigurations. Sophos I had good experience with and Bitdefender and Norton (2021) Also AFAIK I learned, the more popular the solution, the higher the probability that the threat will be able to evade it. Would love to know if Im thinking correctly.

Bitdefender would have been S-tier for me if not for them pulling the plug on the free version. Their little stunt there didn't convince me to buy their product, it convinced me to just go to one of the many other free AVs out there. I'd also put Kaspersky at S-tier since it's really powerful software but I've had some issues with it on two different PCs so I'd probably have to knock it down to A-tier.

I used to just use AV comparatives for in-depth testing and making a decision - but currently, I don't use any AV, just common sense, and some knowledge on securing and hardening your system and browser. for some software protection, I just use Comodo Firewall only with H.I.P.S both on 'Safe-Mode' so it asks me (Host Intrusion Protection System - a firewall for programs 'of-sorts') and browser tweaks and addons - this allows me full control of what's going in and out, I can see all connections, and if a program is acting oddly Comodo contains it and informs me, where I can make a decision and it remembers it. Remember the purpose of malware is to communicate outside your network, so anything trying to make a connection you ain't heard of, you BLOCK it and check it out with VT and other analyzers and OD scanners (I have a load, Eset, F-secure, Emsisoft, Sophos + more) and just in case someone has found a backdoor, I use Sysinternals free apps like TCPview which shows 'all' in and outgoing connections into the system, 'regardless' of whether its trying to hide or not. Autoruns is another good tool by them one should always have

It can only prevent you from downloading those programs from known locations or prevent the malicious programs from calling "home" by blocking outgoing connections to known malicious addresses. If the program is already on the pc, firewall doesn't prevent it from doing whatever it wants inside the computer. (including overriding the firewall settings)

Or the company being paranoid about the Kaspersky being Russian. I have seen companies moving or banning employees from using certain common apps (even Discord/Messenger but they let you use Whatsapp which is owned by Facebook, and is known to spy on people even if messages say they are encrypted). They usually don't want to have even a tiny amount of controversy in their company, so they will move to others that don't have yet, or they haven't heard yet about their controversies.
