Everything I buy on Amazon and most other things I buy I check for reviews first. That\u2019s the \u201cdo I like it\u201d or the test-drive part of the selection.&nbsp; But the \u201chow well does it work\u201d part is lab testing. I\u2019m not expecting crash test results from folks who have taken a new Honda for a test drive. Independent lab testing is the other half.<\/p>\n<p>The power cable of the laptop I\u2019m writing this on has a 3<sup>rd&nbsp;<\/sup>party lab test label on it, and no one expects user reviews to do kind of function and safety testing.<\/p>\n<p>Security function of our security products isn\u2019t something that can be well tested except by a few really big buyers, and that isn\u2019t usually shared or applicable to other environments (because the testing is for one environment).<\/p>\n<p><strong>3<sup>rd<\/sup> Party <em>AND<\/em> Independent<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Every parent thinks their baby is the most beautiful, so no buyer should rely on a vendor\u2019s own testing no matter how well documented. And the 3<sup>rd<\/sup> party test must be independent \u2013 not a test-for-hire.<\/p>\n<p>We view earned third party testing as an important component of a healthy competitive landscape and we confidently make our products fully available for analysis.<\/p>\n<p>Testing has to change to keep up with buyer reality. The endpoint security industry is going through some big changes:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody readability=\"2\">\n<tr readability=\"4\">\n<td width=\"20px\"><\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li>Customers want to transition to the cloud;<\/li>\n<li>New forms of malware challenge detection capabilities;<\/li>\n<li>Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) has emerged as a panacea; and<\/li>\n<li>Every endpoint vendor claims their solution keeps out the bad guys more than other vendors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td height=\"10px\"><\/td>\n<td><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>But all the above in the context of reality \u2013 what is tested must be the most important security function to support risk reduction, not testing only a single fad or single use case or function. As security product makers, we take good test lab feedback very seriously and use it as one of the feedback loops in product design and threat research.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Beware Paid Endorsements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Comedian Judah Friedlander always wears a hat that has \u201cWorld Champion\u201d printed on it. The gag is that he self-proclaims himself to be a world champion, and it doesn\u2019t matter what he is a champion of because it\u2019s just a hat he bought for himself.&nbsp; Trend Micro\u2019s goal is to work with independent test labs that do not depend on \u201cfees\u201d to perform tests or custom evaluations. These aren\u2019t independent or useful to buyers. Rather than leveraging these \u201cpay for play\u201d tests, we work with testing labs that evaluate vendors objectively using real-world environments and a level playing field. While other vendors may \u201csponsor\u201d a test, provide their own sample malware for customers to test, or provide their own test results, we won\u2019t buy a World Champion hat and expect you to take comfort in that. Trend Micro is committed to independent testing, helping us to provide the most objective information to our customers and the best feedback to our product teams.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Two Labs Say Our Baby is Beautiful<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re proud to&nbsp; share that we\u2019ve been recently recognized by two separate testing organizations for our endpoint protection platform.<\/p>\n<p>NSS Labs, Inc. has just released the 2019 edition of their Advanced Endpoint Protection testing. Trend Micro\u2019s endpoint solutions have performed very well, resulting in the desired &nbsp;\u201cRecommended\u201d rating. We had strong performance on \u201cSecurity Effectiveness,\u201d meaning that we detected and blocked threats very effectively. What\u2019s more, we also had a low total cost of ownership, relative to most other vendors in the test.<\/p>\n<p>AV-Test.org has also recently awarded Trend Micro the Best Protection Award for 2018.&nbsp; According to av-test.org:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this award, the independent test institute honors only the most effective security products that have shown outstanding performance during a one-year test phase and thus set new standards for the IT security industry. Trend Micro continuously demonstrated top performance throughout the entire 2018 test season, and therefore receives the AV-TEST Award 2018 in the test categories of \u201cBest Protection\u201d and \u201cBest Performance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Further details on Trend\u2019s performance is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.av-test.org\/en\/news\/av-test-awards-2018-go-to-trend-micro\/\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p> Read More <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.trendmicro.com\/third-party-testing-of-security-is-a-very-big-deal-for-customers\/\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>User Reviews + Test Results Peer reviews are an important part of product selection.
