  • I'm disappointed in the The PC Security Channel for posting this video. The video should be removed or a disclaimer added. Marcos, an Eset representative stated the following 1 year ago. The PC Security Channel is aware of it and even replied to it, but ignored it. The PC Security Channel dropped the ball on this one... "This test is completely wrong. First of all, you skip the very first layer of defense - Web access protection which is very strong in ESET and blocks download from malicious urls which could save users in many cases from new malware even entering the system. Secondly, by disabling real-time protection you prevent HIPS from receiving events on the file system level and thus make HIPS and all HIPS dependent components ineffective, such as: Ransomware shield, Exploit Blocker, Advanced Memory Scanner, Deep Behavior Inspection, Advanced Machine Learning, etc. Disabling real-time protection is not just disabling the use of signatures which are, by the way, typically smart DNA signatures in case of ESET, ie. they only describe the malicious behavior to be detected. Disabling RTP prevents other modules from working effectively since they won't receive information about file system events which have nothing to do with signature detection whatsoever. In real world users must not and do not disable particular protection modules. If they do, they must understand they do it at their own risk and expose the machine to malware attacks and infection."

    • This was not a fair test. As a programmer I can understand the reply from ESET and understand the reasoning behind this test being unfair. To cut a very long story short, the ESET anti ransomware protection WILL NOT function if realtime protection is disabled. You need realtime protection enabled for those modules to fully function - because they rely on some other tasks that the realtime protection does under the hood. ESET could do better by warning you of this when you turn it off, however they do state that only ADVANCED users should turn modules off. A normal user will leave them alone and get full protection. ESET offers no way to disable signature detection while leaving the rest of the product fully functional. There is no reason why you would want to do this (other than specific synthetic tests) so I do not see this as a demerit. ESET really does protect against day 0 unknown threats! It has saved me a few times already. It is also lightweight, and does not interfere with software development (something a lot of other products fail at). No, I am not sponsored by ESET. I have been using it for years and rely on it however. I have a lot of experience as an IT administrator and have used all of the big name products. I can only strongly recommend a couple, ESET being one of them.

  • I'm really not sure that you did right when disabe real-time protection. HIPS has never been a strong point of Eset, unlike Comodo, but without real-time protection, there does not work heuristic analysis, as well as AI based detection. Also, I'm not sure that behavioral analysis works in this state in full power, in my opinion, this setting in Eset affects it as well.

    • as u/serioushoax said The PC Security Channel is definitely not the best test that you can trust and no one should fully base their AV using decision on his tests alone. You will be surprised to know often how little research he does before testing a product. He has a test called something like Windows Defender Sandbox. That test is a nightmare. He didn't even know what Windows Sandbox is. That video is 100% filled with misinformation. Watch that if you haven't already then search what Windows Dender Sandbox actually is. That was the most stupid thing he did. As I said, he is often very ignorant and doesn't do his research before testing. The ESET test is also a similar one. He doesn't even know how ESET works. He expects every AV to be the same. ESET's HIPS is not a true behavior blocker in the first place and if real-time protection is turned off then the HIPS can't have enough data to do its thing. The real-time protection and HIPS are interconnected. But he didn't even know that. Norton is another product where if you turn off Auto protect then it also turns off their behavior blocker SONAR. Besides, no AV should be tested with any of its modules turned off. AV companies don't create multi-layer solutions for users to turn them off in the real world. So testing with one or more of those off is useless Also, one of the things that no KZhead tester mentions is that the first line of defense is almost always in their malware tests. Malware doesn't magically appear on someone's PC. In most cases, AVs with good web protection like Bitdefender, Kaspersky, ESET, etc would stop the malware from getting into the system in the first place. So don't base your choice solely relying on KZhead tests only. Kaspersky protection wise is better than ESET so, in the end, a very good choice but testers like TPSC should not be a reliable source.

  • For those people who thought the test is not correct: I think that the video is appropriate. It didn't aim to compare with other antiviruses. All it does is to test the different functions of different modules. Then, the users can be made an informed decision that ESET mainly focuses on signatures, DNA detections, exploit blocker, etc. instead of the behavioural detections (HIPS). It has nothing to do with the effectiveness of the product - it is just a test to see how different components of the product work. People have always associated "fail the test" with "bad". Testing the different components of a security product is like investigating whether the stomach could digest lipid or protein. It has nothing to do with whether the stomach is good or bad. It only shows that stomach is responsible for digesting protein and no further implication shall be seen. Similarly, the conclusion of the test is that "HIPS may not be able to independently block the zero-day ransomware behaviorally in an effective way". There's no need for viewers or ESET fans to assume that the conclusion of the video is that "ESET is bad". On the contrary, the fact that ESET passed the 1st test shows that ESET is very capable because the specific components are tested only when the product passed the first test and was safe to use. That being said, yes, ESET does offer a lot of additional technologies (such as behavioural analysis on the cloud sandbox through LiveGuard in Smart Security Premium) and focus less on behavioural detections on the system. Again, the test also supports this. In fact, people had just been over-implying things.

    • Clever malware will attack one of these elements to disable it and then the whole sequence breaks down. I think the value of checking each system independently is useful. If the program is interdependent (vs multiple layering which is a superior form of protection due to NOT relying on interaction of modules), it will inherently score lower. The test is not flawed, though it can have a disclaimer about the limitation of such software designed in this fashion (interdependent vs layered). I’d not know how software vendors would feel about that, but the channel is not meant to appease them, its to provide data from most likely real world scenario vs just running a bunch of crap in a virtual sandbox

    • He turned realtime protection off because ESET stores signatures of the viruses that he is testing against, so ESET already knows about the viruses with realtime protection on, that is why the first test had 100% detection ratio. But turning realtime protection off means he's trying to see whether it can detect unknown malware with unknown signatures (i.e newer undetected malware), and block them. In tests after the first, it gets around 40% detection ratio and most malware is able to get through. TLDR: He is testing the other detection mechanisms ESET has to prevent infection aside from signature-based detection. And also signature-based detection doesn't need any AI, it is really just a list of signatures.

He expects every AV to be the same. ESET's HIPS is not a true behavior blocker in the first place and if real-time protection is turned off then the HIPS can't have enough data to do its thing. The real-time protection and HIPS are interconnected. But he didn't even know that. Norton is another product where if you turn off Auto protect then it also turns off their behavior blocker SONAR. Besides, no AV should be tested with any of its modules turned off. AV companies don't create multi-layer solutions for users to turn them off in the real world. So testing with one or more of those off is useless Also, one of the things that no KZhead tester mentions is that the first line of defense is almost always in their malware tests. Malware doesn't magically appear on someone's PC. In most cases, AVs with good web protection like Bitdefender, Kaspersky, ESET, etc would stop the malware from getting into the system in the first place. So don't base your choice solely relying on KZhead tests only. Kaspersky protection wise is better than ESET so, in the end, a very good choice but testers like TPSC should not be a reliable source.

Где защита будет лучше как антивируса? ... а где как файервола ? ... и я извиняюсь за такие вопросы, как человек с малым опытом в компьютерных делах, подскажите честно - вот неужели тот же Eset Smart Security 4.2 хуже защищает чем Eset Smart Security 8.0 ? ... или ESET NOD32 Internet Security 13 лучше защищает систему чем Eset Smart Security 8.0 (или 12 или 11 или 10 или 9) ??? ... я имею ввиду как для меня - простого и обыкновенного домашнего пользователя. ... понятно, что каждая новая версия Eset Smart Security немного больше жрет ресурсов в сравнении с предыдущей версией. но, как я уже спрашивал, Eset Smart Security 13 лучше защитит систему чем Eset Smart Security 8.0 ? При условии, что версии 4.2 или 8.0 и выше - антивирусные базы будут самые новые и они сами автоматически обновляются! Спасибо за понимание! И еще раз извините!!! УДАЧИ!

    • @@lineageduper I know the AV is not the best but the prevention system Defense+ that is included with the Free Antivirus should catch pretty much anything unknown and contain it in a sandbox. Since almost all AV fail this test wondering how well Comodo would do. Even if the AV fail which is very likely no doubt, Defense+ should protect the system and all our files. At least this is the promise. Would like to see it if that is the case. Note that there is 2 type of AV product. Comodo Cloud Antivirus that is not including Defense+ instead rely on Comodo Cloud infrastructure and Comodo Free Antivirus that is including Defense+ but not the cloud. I would like to see the Free AV with Defense+ to be tested.

Could you possibility give more details on the differences. Between the two free versions, anybody. Also, I think Kaspersky is lacking phish-ling, where BitDefender is not on the free version? Thoughts and opinions are always welcome.... For example can you use Kaspersky and/or BitDefender with SandBoxie? And does either one turn the above turn Window Security off? Ect....I need details as much as possible. Also, which completely remove the ransomware from the system, not just blocking and quarantine. Additionally, are there any conflicts with other security software? Kind regards

    • ​@@mooselexus Kaspersky uses way fewer resources than Bitdefender. I personally use Kaspersky due to the effort put in their free versions. They are very similar, and both terminate viruses really well. I tried Bitdefender and decided to test it with some small PUPs like web discoverer browser. And surprisingly, Bit did not detect it but Kaspersky did. Plus Bitdefender free version's UI is very basic. The front page only has a scan option. Overall, If you want the free versions, I recommend Kaspersky. For paid versions, I recommend both. Im not sure but I think you have to uninstall Malwarebytes inorder to install both of them.
