AV-Comparatives: Certification Test based on AMTSO Real Time Threat List (RTTL) March 2016
San Francisco, California / Innsbruck, Austria – April 13, 2016
AV-Comparatives, an independent Austrian antivirus testing lab, has conducted the first public industry test using the AMTSO Real Time Threat List (RTTL). The RTTL is a repository of malware samples collected from around the world, and is managed, maintained and secured by the Anti-Malware Testing Standards Organization (AMTSO). Through the RTTL, AMTSO has provided a common platform where testers can access malware samples and related telemetry data provided by vendors and academics. The RTTL provides a way for testers to setup up new ways of testing based on prevalence-weighted and region-specific malware samples.
Using the RTTL extends the range of tests and certifications based on it allow businesses and consumers to make more informed decisions when selecting a product. In the Real-World Testing framework AV-C is simulating a user using a computer. By exposing the machine to samples pulled from the RTTL we can give an overview of the core protection capabilities of the security product.”
Even though testing based on the AMTSO RTTL is very new, nearly all of the vendors reached the certification. Detailed information about the methodology and test results are available on the AV-Comparatives website.
