Bitdefender, ESET, Kaspersky and Microsoft all got 99.8% or 99.9% detection scores in the enterprise tests.
The testing of Intercept X by AV-Comparatives in August through November mirrors these results with an overall 98.3% score. In the same tests, the enterprise software of every other premium antivirus brand we regularly review detected 100% of zero-day malware from July through October. In AV-TEST's November-December 2020 enterprise round, Sophos finally aced all four tests, the first time it had done so in a year. It detected 100% of the widespread malware in all of AV-TEST's 2020 evaluations from January through October but missed quite a few of the zero-days. Overall, Sophos Intercept X Endpoint was stronger at finding and removing known, widespread malware threats than brand-new 'zero-day' ones. Latest lab-test results as of January 2021
