clarification regarding RAP results

Hello I've been browsing virusbtn website and found these RAP results

http://www.virusbtn.com/vb100/RAP/RAP-quadrant-Feb-Aug11-850.jpg

What do these results indicate?

 

Offline protection rates. Good thing you found the large version.

 

So, from that figure above, Trustport will provide better protection ?

 

Yes, if you're using an outdated offline system.

 

Just to make sure, are these old tests?

 

February - August 2011. It's the latest report.

 

Not protection, but detection.

 

Really? Doesn't reactive and proactive mean protection?

 

It is performed on-demand.

 

It's even less worthwhile then. Only good thing is the amount of products.

 

Emsisoft is not in the list (I mean the image)? Can anyone help me find it xD
Also, they included Mongoosa . . .

 

@Noob
The chart shows products with detection figures without False Positives.

 

I didn't even see panda in the list.. I would like to get clarified about one thing.. The rate must be higher or smaller for better protection ?

 

as has been stated a lot of times by users and by pbust - panda isn't included because RAP tests won't allow the use of cloud databases.

 

Higher

 

What I dont understand is: why Panda participates in "offline on-demand proactive tests" like the performed by AV-C, but no in VB tests.

 

who knows. i don't personally put much stock in VB's testing, so it doesn't bother me at all when vendors don't participate there. maybe they don't like the methodology or they'd rather just stick to av-c.

 

Probably financial reasons?
Or probably because they feel AV-C is a better option to use for marketing?
Who knows

 

"probably" financials? are you panda's accountant?

 

Hahahaha who knows, to join these tests i'm pretty sure they charge you lots of $$$$
