Legitimate and trusted software and built-in components in Windows are often used by cybercriminals to hide malicious activity. The so-called “Living off the Land Binaries” (LOLBin) are necessary for the proper functioning of the operating system. During a cyberattack, it can be difficult or impossible to block them, making them a very attractive method for malware developers. Below we present the most commonly used LOLBin in this edition of the test.
The following summary shows a comparison of tested solutions to protect workstations against malware. We encourage you to become familiar with a detailed description and read our testing methodology in order to understand the results.
PRE-LAUNCH: The classification concerns detecting malware samples before they are launched in the system.
POST-LAUNCH: The analysis level, i.e. a virus has been run and blocked by a tested product.
FAIL: The failure, i.e. a virus hasn’t been blocked and it has infected a system.
Sandbox Column: Number of indicators, i.e. malicious changes made to the system without the anti-virus installed.
Automatic Average Remediation Time (RT): The time expressed in seconds counted from the introduction of malware into the system by the browser, through the launch to the detecting and resolving a security incident.
Certificates are granted to solutions that are characterized by a high level of security, with a rating of at least 99% of blocked threats in the Advanced In-The-Wild Malware Test.
Our tests comply with the guidelines of the Anti-Malware Testing Standards Organization.
Details about the test are available at this website as well as in our methodology.
