VB100 news

This month: new platform, new logo.

VB100 awardWith the overall conclusion that the release of Vista will make little difference to the overall malware landscape, VB chose this month to put a range of anti-virus products for Vista (those that were ready, that is) to the test.

This month's high-performing products also become the first recipients of the new-look VB100 logo - redesigned for the first time since the inception of the certification scheme in January 1998. As previously, the new logo signifies that, using its default settings, the qualifying product detected all of the In the Wild (ItW) virus samples in VB's tests, and generated no false positives when scanning a set of clean files.
