Comparison of antivirus software
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from List of antivirus software)
These are lists of notable[1] antivirus and Internet Security software in form of a comparison tables, according to their platform (e.g. desktop and server, mobile, ...) and their operating systems (e.g. Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X, Linux, Oracle Solaris, Google Android, Apple iOS, Windows Phone, ...). Note: The German AV-Test.org publishes evaluations of antivirus software for Windows[2] and Android.[3]
The voice "Email security" refers to the protection of the emails from viruses and malware, while the voice "AntiSpam" refers to the protection from Spam, Scam and Phishing attacks. The voice "Web protection" includes almost always even the "identity protection" (privacy), the "AntiPhishing" and the "Online Banking protection".
