From the barn door to Fort Knox

Teaming up with AV-TEST against 9 million threats per month

Network solutions are under a constant barrage – from DNS spoofing to DDos attacks and right through to classic malware infections. Modern hybrid companies are especially subject to these risks on an ongoing basis. At AV-TEST, we check 5 million URLs per week for malware content and identify 3-4 new threats per second (see AV-ATLAS).

Therefore, each link in the network chain has to withstand the increasing cyberattacks, from SASE to the router solution. In this, we support manufacturers with targeted security checks in the following areas:

AV-TEST security checks include:

  • DNS attacks: DNS spoofing, cache poisoning and DNS amplification
  • Secure Web Gateway (SWG): Phishing, malware infection, zero-day exploits and data leaks
  • VPN security: Man-in-the-middle attacks, data interception, credential stuffing and unencrypted connections
  • Router security: Firmware, DDoS attacks, network sniffing and configuration errors
