Commentary received
| Vendor | Commentary phase | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Symantec | Phase 1 | “Financial malware simulator test methodology – A test should use real malware from the industry instead of generated samples.“ |
| F-Secure | Phase 2 | “This comment is regarding the test that was conducted in MRG Effitas 360 degree assessment 2020 Q2 and 360 degree assessment 2020 Q3 Tests. In our opinion the sample used for clean files test were not simulating the real world scenario as experienced every day by users. If we want to simulate a real-world scenario for normal users, the clean set for false positive testing should be composed of common/popular applications from popular software/websites. In the case that handcrafted or newly created applications are to be used, they need to be tested with proper paramaters such as being found in locations related to code development.“ |
