2023 AV Comparitives
I've used Trend Micro for many years. Just looked at AV-Compartives Windows latest test for 2023 and Trend Micro was rated the worst of all av security products tested. This gives me pause. Can anyone reassure me that this result is not legitimate?

Hi @grush,
The AVC Malware Protection Test is comprehensive and includes a wide range of malware samples, some of which are older and less prevalent in the current threat landscape. This mix of both recent and older threats can impact the overall detection rates, as our security solutions are optimized to protect against the latest and most relevant threats. Our primary focus remains on real-world detection, where Trend Micro excels, as evidenced by our 100% detection rate in the "Real-World Protection" category, outperforming many other vendors.
Hope this helps

The result is legitimate and ... embarrassing. Same as 6 months and 12 months ago.
Windows Defender (free) has infinite better results.
