AV-Comparatives Validates Real-World Threat Detection in 2025 EDR XDR MDR Certification Testing
INNSBRUCK, Austria, June 15, 2025 /CNW/ -- "As cyberattacks evolve, detection can't be a checkbox. Our 2025 EDR/XDR Certification helps CISOs assess how effectively their tools uncover stealthy, real-world threats." - Andreas Clementi, ceo and founder, AV-Comparatives This independent evaluation tested enterprise cybersecurity solutions under advanced threat scenarios. The goal: to assess their ability to detect and report real-world attacks with precision and visibility. Unlike, e.g. the EPR Test, which focuses on prevention, the EDR test simulates complex attack scenarios to assess how well a product detects and logs each stage of an intrusion, providing insights into its visibility, telemetry quality, and threat detection precision. Threat visibility based on threat hunting capabilities is also considered. AV-Comparatives is pleased to announce that five out of seven solutions have achieved certification so far under our transparent and rigorous methodology. Certified Products – EDR, XDR and MDR Solutions The following products earned certification in the 2025 test round CrowdStrike Falcon Pro ESET PROTECT Enterprise Cloud G DATA 365 MXDR (MDR solution) Kaspersky Next EDR Expert (in the pilot test) Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR Pro One Methodology for EDR, XDR and MDR While initially designed to evaluate EDR and XDR capabilities, the test can equally be applied to MDR (Managed Detection and Response) offerings. In this round, G DATA successfully participated with their MDR solution, demonstrating that even managed offerings can be assessed under realistic, controlled attack conditions. A Focus on Real-World Visibility This evaluation simulates Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) attacks, using known Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) from frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK. All products were tested in monitoring mode only, meaning prevention features were disabled. The goal: to measure how well threats are detected and reported, not blocked. Highlights of the methodology: Execution of complex attack chains Validation of detections via alerts in the management console or through manual threat hunting in telemetry Transparent certification model: only products meeting the detection threshold are certified and publicly listed Methodological Improvements and the Road Ahead The 2025 test incorporated feedback from independent analysts, resulting in greater transparency, enhanced scoring, and deeper telemetry validation. Further enhancements are planned for the 2026 certification test. The EDR Detection Validation Test is open to EPP, EDR, XDR, and MDR vendors seeking independent validation of their detection capabilities. Certification offers vendors industry recognition and deep technical insight into their solution's real-world performance. Contact us to participate in the next test cycle. Cybersecurity and Antivirus Test Results are available at or the following vendors: Avast, AVG, Avira, Bitdefender, Checkpoint, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Elastic, Fortinet, F-Secure, ESET, G DATA, Gen Digital. Google, Intego, K7 Computing, Kaspersky, Malwarebytes, ManageEngine, McAfee, Microsoft, NetSecurity, Nordsec, Norton, Palo Alto Networks, Rapid7, SenseOn, Sophos, Total Defense, TotalAV, Trellix, TrendMicro, VIPRE, WithSecure and many more

Cybersecurity Becomes a Priority for Businesses Amid Rising Global Uncertainty
Cyberattacks tend to surge during periods of global instability, from political unrest to economic slowdowns. Amid this situation, Mr. Zakir Hussain Rangwala, CEO of BD Software Distribution Pvt. Ltd., has shared his insights with The Hans India on how organisations can navigate these challenges. He emphasised that now more than ever, businesses must prioritise cyber resilience to safeguard their operations and data from increasingly sophisticated threats. Mr. Zakir Hussain Rangwala CEO- BD Software Distribution Pvt. Ltd. As per Mr Zakir Hussain, these situations give cybercriminals and advanced threat groups more opportunities to target vulnerable organisations. Businesses across all sectors and sizes face increased risk, even if they are not directly involved in these external events. Cyber attackers take advantage of such instability to launch well-planned and aggressive campaigns. These include ransomware, phishing, data breaches, and supply chain attacks. Their goals may vary—ranging from financial gain and data theft to causing operational disruptions—but the results are often serious: data loss, downtime, reputational damage, and financial impact. Organisations with limited cybersecurity measures are particularly vulnerable, but even well-protected companies can be at risk through third-party vendors or remote teams. This makes it more important than ever for businesses to take a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity. To stay secure in this challenging environment, businesses need to be proactive and build strong cyber resilience. Start by using advanced security tools such as Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and threat intelligence platforms to quickly identify and respond to threats. Adopting a Zero Trust model helps reduce access-related risks by continuously verifying users and devices. Regular security checks and patch management are also key to closing potential vulnerabilities. Training employees to identify phishing and follow safe online practices plays a crucial role. In addition, organisations should maintain secure, frequently tested data backups to support fast recovery if an incident occurs. Finally, having a clear and tested incident response plan ensures that operations can be restored quickly and efficiently. As a trusted value-added distributor, BD Soft supports businesses with the tools and expertise needed to stay protected during uncertain times. With a wide portfolio of global cybersecurity solutions, fast deployment support, and expert guidance, BD Soft helps organizations strengthen their defences and maintain business continuity—regardless of external challenges.
