Increases sales however Ashwin!
for some people I guess. I've never paid for AV protection in 29 years using computers, PC or Mac, and never will as long as free programs that work are available.
well an IT security expert I take classes from mentioned them on his course. I'm sure he would not mention them if he thought it was not a legit site. I'm as skeptical as anyone is but I have no problem with believing what they are posting in those graphs at least to some degree. I may email them to see if they explain how they got those numbers. Guess everyone can believe what they want and make their own conclusions.
here they mention how they do their tests. https://www.av-test.org/en/about-the-institute/test-procedures/
I for one don't believe for a second that they can keep up with 350,000 new malware/PUA per day and for that matter, even with couple of hundreds a day.
