Kaspersky wins award

Kaspersky Lab announces that Kaspersky Internet Security, its flagship home user product, has received the "Product of the year" award from the independent testing lab AV-Comparatives after it consistently demonstrated the best results in testing throughout 2013. Out of 22 participating products, Kaspersky Lab's solution was the only one to achieve the top Advanced+ ranking in all of the tests.

AV-Comparatives selects the winners of its annual awards based on the total ranking of each assessed product during that year's tests. Some of the tests, such as Performance Test and File Detection Test, demonstrate the capabilities of separate protection subsystems. Real-World Protection tests evaluate how good solutions are at combatting cyber-threats while using the entire repertoire of protection tools available to them. Kaspersky Internet Security had a solid lead in all the tests it underwent.
