“A first-of-its-kind test that covers all angles, our pioneering 360 Degree Protection Test targets the key threats faced by internet users. In each test case we employ the full spectrum of Early Life Malware. We use a Time-To-Detect metric to measure how long it takes each application to detect and neutralize missed threats.”

“Regarding the “I confirm that the Tester established a process allowing me to adopt Participant status in this Test.”: Would it be possible to add some note what should be done if a vendor wants to adopt the participant status?” Response from AMTSO: Options for requesting participant status are typically included in notification messages, adding them to our multi-purpose web forms is not viable at this time. In most cases, vendors can contact the tester to discuss participation.
