Austrian Laboratory AV-Comparatives - An independent organization that regularly conducts testing of anti-virus products on the market, both for personal computers, and for corporations and mobile phones.

Laboratory experts claim that they use the most comprehensive, most modern and most complex tests in testing. A product that has “survived” such a test can rightfully be considered the best antivirus of 2018. Ten antiviruses recognized by AV-Comparatives as products of the highest quality last year are presented to your attention.

10. QuickHeal

Opens the list of the ten best antivirus programs in 2018, the product of the Indian computer company - QuickHeal antivirus. Although the quality of work of Indian programmers has become a household name, this antivirus is quite suitable and will successfully save a computer from worms, viruses and other unpleasant surprises.

9. AVG

Following the Indians are the Czechs. AVG Antivirus - the brainchild of the Czech company AVG Technologies, can scan files, mail and is able to monitor computer activity 24/7.

This antivirus has a free version, which can be used indefinitely with almost no damage to the functionality. Opportunities like anti-spam and firewall are cut off, but surfing the Internet can be completely calm.

8. Avast

The main advantages of Avast are a small load on the computer and a high scanning speed. In addition, it is completely and completely free. Avast will take care of the safety of online purchases, scan mail for viruses and trojans, and scan suspicious applications.

And gamers will appreciate another feature of Avast - disabling Windows system alerts until the end of the game. Avast “sags” in the rating according to several categories - removing malware and identifying this malware in files.

7. F-Secure

Finnish guys take the best from computer developments in other countries. Until 2010, they used the kernel from Kaspersky, and then switched to BitDefender in combination with their own notions.

Despite the fact that F-Secure is positioned as a regular antivirus, it still has a firewall, a spam filter, even its own VPN. Although it does not protect completely from downloading the contents of malicious sites, it is quite effective in dealing with it afterwards.

6. Emsisoft

The sixth place in the antivirus rating of 2018 is received by the Austrian product based on its own developments - Emsisoft. It is able to protect the user's computer from ordinary viruses, trojans and spyware, but it also blocks access to dangerous sites, checks all executable files and the course of already known programs - are they doing something criminal?

According to the developers, users will not even feel the load on the system from the antivirus.

5. ESET

And the fifth among the best antiviruses is named ESET. People who were present at the beginning of the Russian Internet will probably remember the NOD32 antivirus, one of the most popular antiviruses on the border of the twenty-first century.

Bratislava scientists continue to work now, and at the end of 2016 released a new version of ESET NOD32 Internet Security. It is able to protect the computer from network threats, and the camera from unauthorized connections. In addition, according to the assurances of the developers, the program almost does not “eat” computer resources.

4. ThreatTrack

The US company ThreatTrack Security specializes in protecting companies from threats, attacks and spyware. Vipre Anti-Virus offers a wide range of additional services - checking mail, sites and even Facebook pages, as well as clearing the history of visited sites and other traces of user activity in Windows. However, in tests to identify and block suspicious and malicious software, the antivirus showed average results.

3. Kaspersky Lab

Kaspersky Lab is in third place in the ranking of the best antiviruses in 2018. However, experts at AV-Comparatives note that the results of the first three — Kaspersky Lab, Bitdefender, and AVIRA — turned out to be so similar that Austrian scientists even had to introduce a special category for them called “Outstanding Products”.

Kaspersky has solutions for every taste - from private computers to large corporate networks, from simple home-use antivirus to password storage software, for smartphones and tablets, and even protecting children from Internet bullying.

2. Bitdefender

In second place in the top 10 antiviruses of 2018 is the product of a Romanian company, the antivirus engine of which is in first place in the number of licenses sold - it is used by many companies around the world when developing their own antiviruses. There are protection options for personal computers, mobile devices, corporate networks.

Bitdefender antivirus, including its free version, provides real-time scanning and protection, virus control, malware detection and neutralization, as well as web protection and anti-rootkit. And all this while working requires very little system resources due to SmartScan technology.

1. AVIRA

And the best antivirus of 2018 in the ranking becomes AVIRA from the German company of the same name. This program received the best scores in all respects - virus detection, performance, real-time protection and malware removal.

The antivirus has both a free version for private use and a paid one, which, however, differs from the free one only with web protection and mail checking. Moreover, with the help of AVIRA you can even find a lost phone or block it in case of danger.
