# Industry antivirus tests
|
||||
|
||||
The Windows Defender ATP team is committed to delivering industry-leading protection, customer choice, and transparency on the quality of our solutions. We release transparency reports to help our customers and the broader security community to stay informed and understand independent test results better.
|
||||
Microsoft security stack continually performs well on independent tests.
|
||||
|
||||
## Top scoring in independent tests
|
||||
|
||||
Microsoft has worked hard to make our capabilities increasingly more effective by utilizing heuristic detections, machine learning, behavioral analysis, and other evolutions. By removing dependency on constant input from researchers, our antivirus solution can block nearly all malware at first sight and in milliseconds. That is why [Windows Defender Antivirus is the most deployed in the enterprise](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/threat-protection/windows-defender-antivirus/windows-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10).

|
||||
|
||||
The time and effort Microsoft puts into improving Windows Defender Antivirus continues to show in the form of consistently high scores from independent tests.
|
||||
|
||||
The following display scores for two independent tests.
|
||||
|
||||
## AV-TEST
|
||||
|
||||
AV-TEST is an independent IT security institute from Germany and has been testing internationally relevant IT security products for over 15 years.
|
||||
|
||||
The graphs below show Windows Defender AV’s detection rates in “Real World” and “Prevalent malware” testing over a six month period.
|
||||
|
||||
**Real-world testing** refers to protection against 0-day malware attacks, inclusive of web and e-mail threats.
|
||||
The AV-TEST Product Review and Certification Report tests on three categories: protection, performance, and usability. The scores listed below are for the protection category against malware infections which has two scores, the AV-Test reference set (known as just "prevent malware") and the real world testing.
|
||||
|
||||
**Prevent malware** refers to detection of widespread and prevalent malware discovered in the last 4 weeks.
|
||||
|
||||
### AV-TEST
|
||||
**Real-world testing** refers to protection against 0-day malware attacks, inclusive of web and e-mail threats.

## Factors not represented in the tests
|
||||
|
||||
It is important to remember that [Windows Defender ATP](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/WindowsForBusiness/windows-atp?ocid=cx-blog-mmpc) (which integrates our antivirus capabilities and the whole Windows security stack) provides a much larger set of protection features that are not factored into the tests. These features provide **additional layers of protection** that help prevent malware from getting onto devices in the first place:
