AV-TEST Award 2018 for AhnLab
Only the best IT protection solutions are contenders for the internationally recognized AV-TEST Awards. After all, with this award, the independent test institute honors only the most effective security products that have shown outstanding performance during a one-year test phase and thus set new standards for the IT security industry. AhnLab made an impressive showing, continuously delivering peak performance throughout the 2018 test season, and thus receives the AV-TEST Award 2018 in the test category of "Best Performance".
Simply the Best!
Products certified by the AV-TEST Institute are tested according to the state of the art in technology and have a worldwide reputation for reliable protection. End users, corporate users, public agencies, providers of IT security products and media around the globe trust in the exact product analyses "Made in Germany". Products tested and certified with utmost due diligence by AV-TEST guarantee the best possible protection against current threats.
Once a year, manufacturers of antivirus products also have the opportunity to set themselves apart from other security products and to become 'knighted' with an AV-TEST Award. However, this requires continuous peak performance in at least one test category and throughout the test period of an entire year.
The AV-TEST Awards – a year of peak performance
In the daily fight against cyber attacks, an antivirus software manufacturer wages battle on many fronts. Thus, it is not only a question of ensuring that a product can match up against international competition, it is also about implementing a service-minded security promise made to the customer when the product is purchased. Only the most innovative research and development achievements can lead to consistent peak performance, which the AV-TEST Institute regularly puts to the test in its monthly side-by-side tests. With "V3 Internet Security", AhnLab succeeded at fielding a top product in 2018 which met the high standards of the AV-TEST Institute.
In the consumer field, AhnLab receives recognition for best protection at minimal reduction of system performance and is thus given the Best Performance 2018 Award by the AV-Test Institute. In earning the Performance Award, the "V3 Internet Security" product shows that good protection of end user PCs does not have to be at the expense of speed. For many consumers, the protection program offers optimal protection in combination with optimal system performance. "V3 Internet Security" stands out thanks to its minimal use of system resources, at levels well below the industry average.
Andreas Marx, CEO AV-TEST GmbH: AhnLab set itself apart throughout the entire year of 2018 with the outstanding performance of its "V3 Internet Security" security solution, thus receiving the AV-TEST "Best Performance 2018" Award.
