Dedicated protection for online payments is designed to secure you finances, personal information, and protect against cybercrime. This increases of the level of protection for banking services and online transactions. You have more confidence that your money and data are safe.
The main objective of the test is to verify modules for repelling attacks on online banking, regardless of the original protocol for initiating the cyberattack. We use real malware in simulated scenarios to perform the analysis. The main goal of the testers is to steal information from the device which is additionally protected by antivirus software when using a dedicated banking (online payment) protection mode.
The evaluation of tested solutions is aimed at security software developers and users who are looking for comprehensive security of their finances.
The test ends with the award of a certificate, and the results and conclusions can help you choose the solution that best meets the high requirements.
The final report indicates the strengths of the product, and additionally shows whether the solution meets certain standards. As a result, it can have a positive impact on customer decisions related to product selection.
Threats used in the test are so-called potentially dangerous 0-day software which is unknown to developers on the day of testing. This is a good situation, because in this way it is possible to test the solution against something completely new.
In test scenarios, we do not disable antivirus protection, because user security would be put at risk if certain components were deactivated. Such a test would not reflect the real scenario of using the security suite.
Most modern antivirus software for macOS and Windows provides basic security for banking and online payments. Such technologies include, for example: antiphishing, antimalware, antikeylogger, antiscreenlogger, blocking connections of untrusted applications and scripts, detecting system changes to DNS servers, and others. However, some developers offer the user a so-called specialized module which has been programmed to protect the system when performing online payments or other important and confidential operations on files and data.

Vendors can participate directly in the Advanced In-The-Wild Malware Test or obtain a Certification-Only Package for a product independently tested by AVLab. Paid participation provides access to extended technical services, test data, and custom configuration options, while result review and verification remain available to all tested vendors.
Commercial use of AVLab certificates, certification badges, and award materials by independently tested vendors requires either Paid Assessment Participation or a Certification-Only Package. Independently tested vendors without either option may be listed in AVLab results and certification records but are not granted the right to use AVLab certification materials in their own marketing or communications.
