Kaspersky Lab has announced that its security solutions Kaspersky Internet Security 2014 and Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business both led the way in the Bi-Monthly Certification September-October 2013 testing conducted by the independent AV-TEST laboratory in categories for home users and the corporate market respectively.

The test results show that Kaspersky Internet Security 2014 was the best security solution for home computers. The product passed all the tests and was the only one of the 25 participating solutions to score the maximum possible 18 points.

Security solution developers often have to make compromises between the quality of threat detection and the need to maintain computer performance. However, Kaspersky Lab products provide high-level protection without slowing down the computer, even on an outdated OS such as Windows XP. The latest results from AV-TEST confirm this, said Nikita Shvetsov, Deputy CTO (Research), Kaspersky Lab.

In the category for corporate users, Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business was the top performer, scoring 17.5 out of a possible 18 points. This solution scored top marks in tests designed to demonstrate the ability of the product to detect cyber-attacks and prevent false positives.
