ESET, leading Europe-based IT security company, has won the accolade „Champion 2017“ in a user rating survey of security solutions in the categories “Malware Protection” and “E-mail Security”, as carried out by the German analyst firm Techconsult. The company (part of IT media house Heise) surveyed 2 400 businesses and their views on IT security solutions used on company networks. Out of the 180 solutions from eight cybersecurity vendors, ESET prevailed as the Champion.

In the category  “Malware Protection”, ESET scored especially high for both the “Company (producer) Rating” as well as in the category for quality of the endpoint solution “Technology / Solution Rating”. In the category “Email Protection”, Techconsult also declared ESET the Champion. The analyst firm and the surveyed users judged seventy criteria across 14 categories. The results have been recognized via Techconsult’s „Professional User Rating“. 

“This is yet further recognition from users in Germany, especially those in our fast-growing business security segment, which is a priority of ours. We look to continue offering first class service to our users and are delighted to recieve such positive feedback,” says ESET EMEA Sales and Marketing Director, Miroslav Mikuš.

“ESET products are based on 30 years of research and continuous technology development. Our aim is to offer ESET users the best IT security solutions on the market. The results from Techconsult show that we are taking the right path,” adds Country Manager ESET Germany, Stefan Thiel.

ESET has recently won several awards and demonstrated impressive test results, both in Germany and across the globe – from Virus Bulletin, AV-Comparatives both for encryption and as top-rated product, SE Labs, CRN Germany, Stiftung WarenTest and Computer Bild – just to name a few.
