*Turns off protection settings* Kaspersky: I will fight you with no hand

Trojan: Wanna Cry? Kaspersky: *WANNA DIE?*

Kaspersky all the way 👌🏻 Leo test bitdefender as well

1:36 For a split second, I almost got a heart attack when I saw ransomware is executed.

My heart was about to stop when I saw the ransomware executed xD

Turns off protection settings Kaspersky: WE DONT DO THAT HERE

Kaspersky's behavioural and ML engines are 11 years in the making, this is why it is so effective against many different attack vectors

I imagine turning off each option of protection as Kaspersky replaying "It's just a Flesh Wound!"

Damn Kaspersky are unbeatable. I made the right choice and I always suspected Bitdefender is just overhyped, watching this guy's tests confirmed my suspicions

I‘d be interested to see how the free version of kaspersky would handle such threats. Maybe you could look into it?

Ransomware: Im not scared of anything but that thing *Points at Kaspersky* It scares me

You could try the test by disabling internet connection altogether. TBH Kaspersky is the most comprehensive security solution on the market,with banner and privacy blocking. I use it with the trusted application module for my family laptops and set password against disabling. No infections in 10 years.

Leo,thanks for the test. I have been using kaspersky since 2002, and has paid for Kaspersky since 2005, and i have never regretted. In security products area, Kaspersky is the best in my opinion... Keep up your good videos and be safe against corona virus, Leo.. thanks.. :)

love for Eugene Kaspersky .... I am using Kaspersky since 2007

Been waiting for this vid for a bit

Kaspersky is the best, I have used Kaspersky Internet Security for years and I feel very protected using this product.

I've been attacked by malware several times but Kaspersky has always been there for me.

This was honestly stunning, how? If someone told me that they would be able to do this say in school I'd not trust them honestly. Very impressive!

1:36 The fear was real when I saw a lot of the ransomware being executed. I lit freaked out for a good couple of seconds I also was scared as my daily basis AV is Kaspersky so in reality I was even thinking of uninstalling it at one point, You got me the first half 😂😂

I believe that Kaspersky devs, once a new variant of ransomware comes out will immediatly update also all the behavioural components after making a new signature. So that's the reason for the high detection

I was trying to choose between Eset and Kaspersky, and Honestly your video saved my money to go waste. Thanks for great video.

It can't get anymore simple than this. Thank you soo much howtobasic!

One reason more to stay using Kaspersky. When I set up my new PC half a year ago I was hesitant about installing an AV again (used Kaspersky IS before) because I asked myself if all Windows Defender fanboys are right and it is enough. Stumbled upon your channel and installed Kaspersky again after seeing a few of your videos.

Kaspersky vs bitdefender? How about a comparison next video?

A fellow TheWarOwl watcher :) Good choice and nice test, I was waiting for the Kaspersky test for a while now. Keep it up Leo

Free versus paid for version security comparisons would be very useful.

Great test and great video! Maybe try disconnecting your VM from the network to make sure the "outside world" isn't being contacted for any signatures, or other related data. I'm really impressed with Kaspersky's performance. Thanks for posting!

I did purchase something and advise me to turn off AV in order for the file not to considered as False Positive. After downloading and installing the application. I run full scan and AV was able to detect threats and some files were affected. but good thing Kaspersky was able to disinfect them without deleting some files. So Kaspersky proves it should be considered as one of the best anti-virus.

Hey Leo love your vids! Wanna see how Bitdefender performs in the ransomware test. And I also wanna see how the free av products (Kaspersky free, Bitdefender free) perform in the ransomare test.

Just purchased and activated my Kaspersky Internet security yesterday. Whew, this makes me feel much better about my choice :-)

I don't even care if you add ads to the download you're just such a goat ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

best yt channel i have come across in a while. subbed! (why didn't I think of this)

Thank you for bringing up that sale on BZfuture. I was about to buy a Windows 10 Home OEM key off Kinguin, but that sale basically let me get Pro for a few bucks cheaper, so I'm VERY happy. And hey, a year of non-Windows Defender antivirus ain't bad either.

That is impressive from Kaspersky. One thing I like about it is that it uses way less resources as compared McAfee, BD (So much RAM even in idle) and even Windows Defender. I found your channel couple of days ago. I find it very interesting. Good job mate. Do you really think it is worth upgrading to KIS or the basic Antivirus version will suffice? Basically is the firewall worth it or Windows Firewall does the job as well?

The moment you see perfect sheet and you have kapersky 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

That's why I love Kaspersky.

I'm using Kaspersky and been happy about it ever since. :D

Finally a Kaspersky video the anti-virus software I use

Your actually the goat, This helped so much thank you.

0:32 Thank you for clarifying this! I was extremely hesitant with this store for that reason.

OMG, it really worked. Thank you so much!!

Im so happy that i have Kaspersky :D

BROTHER, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! You oooh really helped me!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!This is cool, well done!

Hi Leo, thanx so much for a great channel

Awesome video 👍🏻👍🏻 thx fir doing all this test.

Bro I really do appreciate you for this help, Thanks! I subscribed and Liked the video.

I noticed i had a malicious program running my cpu all the way to 100% , it was some winlogon ui application, windows defender found nothing , installed kaspersky , immediately found 6 threats one of wich is the winlogon app... Truly amazing, i didnt expect this result.. will probably buy it.

Do this with Bitdefender. Thank you!

so yea Kaspersky is pretty good.

I found your exploit here very interesting... I work in Windows support for Windows systems management, and presently doing training for Win10. Win 10 is really like a souped up Win7 with some additions and structural changes in the base design. Win10 has a lot more protections and is more robust than Win7 and Win8. Win10 takes advantage of UEFI which replaces BIOS, but we still call UEFI to be BIOS when in discussion about this aspect. We should be calling this aspect UEFI. (Read the explanation below the Divider Line at the bottom of this message). I noticed you are running Win10. This plays a huge part with the protections you are seeing...! I cannot comment for Kaspersky because I never used it, but there are virus scanners that even though they indicate the template file has been turned off, it in reality is not turned off. It runs and does not output warnings... You would have to fully uninstall the virus scanner. Many virus scanners will not even let you fully disable them in the Services and Policy settings if you tried to. Windows 10 by default comes with the new generation of Defender installed. I was told it uses the same base template as another big protection software in partnership. When you install another virus scanner defender does not really go away. It works in the background all the time as a secondary defence and is part of the Windows 10 structure. During one of the training sessions I was attending, the instructor indicated a few things about Defender in how it is embedded as part of the Windows OS. There is a huge advantage in this type of design. It is also incorporated with the "bootkit" which is really the pre-boot starting with the UEFI. I wrote a basic explanation at the bottom of this message below the divider line. It is fact however, that protection is only as good as the last update of the template file for detection of malware. Quality Virus scanners also use a hysteresis type operation to attempt to detect something that appears to be possibly malicious, but this is limited. Take care that the installed virus scanner can only work after the OS finishes loading the Kernel, and the base platform just before the GUI and the rest of the operating programs load. There has to be many types of drivers loaded, and the boot record has to have been run for the virus scanner software to start in the first place. This is where the bootkit and UEFI come in to play before this all happens. Previous versions of Windows cannot take advantage of the UEFI protection. Also, take care that Windows 10 in itself has very sophisticated built in protections against malware that works at the MBR and and UEFI level. There are malware that writes a start file in part of the boot record, and create hidden ini startup files, so it can do its malicious work before the OS can run the virus scanner protection. The MS Windows security updates are designed to protect at this level. It would be interesting for you do this same test with a Win7 computer and have no virus scanner installed! I bet all those malware would get installed and go to war with each other! :-) -------------------- Divider Line ------------------- This a simple explanation I was given about UEFI protection in Win10, that Win7 and previous OS do not have. This is a simple explanation about the added protection you are seeing that Win7 would not be able to offer. The Win10 MS security updates work in part with the UEFI system. Basic: Windows 10 has multiple levels of protection for desktop apps and data, too. ... When you run Windows 10 on a PC or any PC that supports Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI), Trusted Boot protects your PC from malware from the moment you power on your PC until your anti-malware starts. Basic Additional: UEFI Secure Boot. Secure boot is designed to protect a system against malicious code being loaded and executed early in the boot process, before the operating system has been loaded. This is to prevent malicious software from installing a "bootkit" and maintaining control over a computer to mask its presence.

Thank you so much Sensei! You are a blessing!

Would like more content on free AVs. Especially an update on Kaspersky's free solution. Keep up the great work, buddy.

That moment when you think Kaspersky missed an ransomware.

Kaspersky is best.

Thanks, another great video. My best guess is that Kaspersky uses some kind of internal caching. So it wa ready for the malware executed the second or third time. I wonder if the followup tests done on a clean install would behave differently. I would really love to know.

man I missed this kind of tutorials lol. Great work here, thanks!!!

1 minute after release I click this notification.

Thank you soo much! This helped a lot! ❤️

I love kaspersky but I didn't know it blocked my webcam and I ended up missing a whole exam for it🤦‍

One thing I noticed after using Avast, AVG, McAfee, Norton 360 Premium and Kaspersky Internet Security- Kaspersky is like the Boss with highest stealth mode and great protection, it's always one step ahead. I installed in my father's laptop with auto file deletion if disinfection was no possibile and I am getting 100% results. Norton used to miss one or two in encrypted archives, but Kaspersky (after tuning settings which I did of Norton as well) works like military strict.

I legitimately thought on uninstalling Kaspersky when I saw all that ransomware being executed. Then I remembered I just switched to Linux a week ago and my wi fi driver is not working, so nevermind. I'm all good.

Kaspersky Total Security... by far the best!

Explained in great detail! Thank you so much!!

i will die waiting for kaspersky vs bitdefender

Nice test thnx. Just an FYI: even if you disable participation in KSN, KSN is still used for lookups by Application control. You should also go to Application control settings and disable option "Load rules for applications from KSN". Even better solution would be to just disable internet on VM level.

Love your vids! Can I suggest that make yearly videos of comparisons and tests, and add the date to the title? So that maybe it can turn up more often in the search bars for the latest AV test. Maybe because of the KZfaq algorithm...

I think that cloud rating system is periodically saved locally. So even disconnected, it did say synchronized 2 minutes ago.

Excellent results. Maybe even with KSN turned off it only prohibits uploading of stuff to KSN and not the downloading of threat info from the KSN cloud system.

same test with bitdefender . please

Would love to see a retest of Bitdefender and/or a comparison with Kapersky now :)

Bitdefender as your next Video that would be awsome! Thanks for Reading my Comment

Since this video, i deleted the antivirus i was using (360 security) and i installed Kaspersky! I am actually very happy about this software package and i do trust it, but what i found out is, that it blocks and deletes even ipa files, like ethasonJB, Pho3nix and H3lix, which is kinda weird because those are just jailbreak files that can't execute on windows, it flags them as HackToolTrojan, but they are not a trojan because the ipa files are tested and proven harmless, so if you want to jailbreak your iphone, you want to pause the Kaspersky package because it blocks and deletes your ipa files

what we learned today is that kaspersky is the equivelant of the quiet kid in the back of the class

Good video Leo! Thank you for sharing it with us!💖👍👌😎JP

Shared. Thanks for your great work!

my right ear loves this video

Just bought Kaspersky! Hope it does me good.

Kaspersky: turns on Also Kaspersky: Wait, whered the viruses go? The last virus who didn't just end itself: Idk, they randsomware

I didn't even realise the results OMG

very very gooood, thaaankss maan

This is the reason why I’ve chosen kaspersky 👍🏻

I believe what happened is this: When Kaspersky is connected to the online database, it compares software to the database record. But when not connected, it knows it's not connected, and gives a higher degree of suspicion to any installing software, resulting in more false positives, but not risking negligence. btw it looks like it's still far too easy to infect Windows. I would have hoped that nothing but trojan horses could get through by now, like in civilised operating systems.

Malware vs antiviruses are like boxing matches

Man I trust Kaspersky but Bitdefender has a warm place in my heart . Please try norton next

Wow. Now I'm thinking of reinstalling the free version of Kaspersky back into my PC.

Using Kapersky on old ramsonware is like hiring a professional boxer to hit a child. Thing is scary effective and you can almost hear the malware cry

Really nice job. I did so stuff with MIDI/DAW/soft banks wayyy back in like 99/00 in college and was ok at it. I bought soft soft last

Thank you!

ITS REALLY WORKED LOL THANK YOU DUDE

Thank goodness for VMs 🙌🏿😎

Audio is definitely heavier on the right channel, sounds super off.

Kaspersky - probably the best AV in the world. 😁😉

Kaspersky is powerful security and speed

The fact its doing better than Avast surprises me a lot. Might actually have to switch BACK to Kaspersky used to be pricey as damn to buy but nowadays they calmed down on the price a bit.

Great vid like always. I had been wanting to ask you if you can recommend one AV solution above all the ones you have tested. After seeing its performance, would Kaspersky be that one or would you recommend another?

Leo : *turn off real time protection* Kaspersky Application Control : *sigh* fine ill do it myself

3:40 You should have run a second opinion scan. If they are able to execute, then 🤷‍♂️

The easiest thing you could do is assign a static IP to the vm, and remove the default gateway and or dns servers. This will ensure there is no way to get to the internet

Hi Leo, the task that you did was amazing. The last part where you said, whether Kaspersky is getting some updates from somewhere for that Will it be possible to check the same antivirus which is completely disconnected from the Internet? So that there is physically no way for AV to get its updates from somewhere else which we are not aware of. Also I would love to see Bitdefender put under same conditions as this one and Sophos as Sophos gave you a 100% Block in some tests.
