    All of the AV evaluations on UA-cam are sponsored by an internet security company being tested so it adds a level of mistrust on my part. also so many reviewers seem to be using the exact same graphics when doing reviews which also raise a flag in my suspicious mind. I know you are running a business, but it lowers the trust worthy score to some degree regardless of who is doing the review. I do think you seem honest but... I have had zero viruses in over a decade because of my mistrust.

    • @NicoKnowsTech
      @NicoKnowsTech  3 місяці тому +5

      Yeah but his test was done with most of the features turned off and then blasted the engine with hundreds of samples at the same time. ESET is not designed to use all system resources and possibly crash the system. If you leave ESET features on he wouldnt be able to even run the script that executes the malware.

    What are your thoughts on AV-Comparatives and AV-Test websites? I've been a Norton user since the 1980s, and periodically review other options. It seems to be in a tier with all the other top brands consistently, and all of them miss detection at some point. At the same time, I was interested in ESET from things I've heard recently, but it doesn't seem to be as robust in testing as other top tier brands like Norton, Kaspersky, Bitdefender, etc.

    • @NicoKnowsTech
      @NicoKnowsTech  3 місяці тому +3

      Great question. I like AV test websites when they do realistic test. Most of them test ESET but only it's engine and see how it does post execution. This isn't realistic because ESET takes a pre-execution approach so rather than Ransomeware rollback it intercept the encryption. Rather than locking down part of the post execution it intercepts the task call. It utilizes machine learning, intrusion detection, and features such as live grid to prevent execution. To perform the tests where you execute 200 Malware at the same time the tester must disable 75% of ESET's security to just get the test to run. I'm in a discord group of fellow IT UA-camrs and Malware researchers and the biggest pain in testing ESET was that it stopped the test before we could try to infect it. We also test a ton of network attacks and hacks.... Almost always intercepted by it's IDS system and HIPS.

    NICO you are DEAD on!! ESET is the absolute best AV. We have used it for years on all Enterprise accounts. About 700 @ this point. We control all Clients updates, deployment and scanning VIA the ESET portal. Best of all it has very low payload. Not sure I would put NORTON anywhere near the top, IMO. They are still a bloatware PIG. Awards? Sure, paid awards, wink, wink... Great stuff NICO!!

You could rate it yourself. I was an Avira (for a/v) and comodo (firewall) user for over 10+ years. Avira 's advertisements and add-ons made me look for another A/V and nano filled that gap. Also comodo started adding services without notifying the user and Maleware Byte's Windows Firewall Control did the click to me.
