And somewhere along the line, for those used to the suite, the main thing is that the editor "gets the job done", i.e. G Data, like a handful of other products tested, achieved a 100% success rate and was placed alongside McAfee, Avast and AVG. In online protection, all means of blocking a threat are taken into account, so it is the defences of the suite as a whole that are tested. In terms of online detection, its score places it in the middle of the ranking.

In this respect, G Data does better than the entire market in offline protection. And here we can see that it is clearly the "in-house" engine that works, since G Data's score is higher than Bitdefender's: 96% for both online and offline detection compared to 94.9% for its close relative. In the first two, only the ability to identify a malicious file is measured. AV Comparatives distinguishes three data: online detection, offline detection and online protection. In the more traditional Malware Protection test, the results were just as good. In the "Real World Protection" test, it was a clean sweep in terms of protection against zero-day threats, although there were a few false positives (9 to be exact) AV Comparatives conducted three recent tests, and on all of them G Data gets the top score and the Advanced+ badge.
