AV-Comparatives 2017 Malware Removal Test
Because no solution offers 100% protection, the malware removal capabilities are an important aspect to consider when choosing an antivirus solution. An antivirus scan is the first counteraction of most users when they notice their system is infected. Therefore, we evaluate both completeness and convenience in our annual malware removal test. In our 2017 report we certified 17 antivirus solutions.
Malware removal test
The antivirus solutions were tested from February to September 2017. Each month the products were tested against a selected set of malware.
Malware removal awards
Five antivirus solutions received the advanced plus award. Compared to the 2016 test, three new vendors were awarded the highest rating and three vendors dropped out of the advanced category.
