ESET recently earned an undisputed award in Spam Protection. The award was given out by two leading independent testing authorities, Virus Bulletin and AV-Comparatives. ESET products rated “highest” in terms of security solutions.
Virus Bulletin tested in total, 18 full business email security solutions while AV-Comparatives tested 12 leading consumer security solutions. On a set of nearly 130 thousand spam emails ESET Smart Security reached the highest spam catch rate of 99,96% and won the first place in the Anti-Spam Test.
“We found the integration of ESET Smart Security into Outlook to be very simple but effective, allowing for the easy marking of mails or addresses as spam. The program blocked 99.96% of unwanted messages in our spam filtering test, the highest score of any product tested,” reads the AV-Comparatives’ report.
Palo Luka, Chief Technology Officer at ESET, said: “Spam protection is a central part of the multilayered approach ESET takes to next generation security and we invest considerable effort into keeping our clients safe. We also work hard to keep false positives to a minimum, which is a difficult task in combination with robust spam filtering. Therefore we are happy that the results of these tests confirm that we are able to achieve exactly that.”
