Kaspersky Lab Product Performance
Validation Testing & Certification
Checkmark Product Testing and Certification
The Checkmark Certification System is recognised globally as probably the most
comprehensive independent functionality and performance validation program of
its kind.
With three tiers of certification – Baseline, Dynamic and Real Time testing – vendors
have the opportunity to commit to the System at a level that suits the performance
of their products and services in the real-world.
The Baseline certifications comprise a series of static benchmarking tests that
measure detection capability against a finite suite of known malware threats.
Whereas the addition of Dynamic and Real Time testing transforms this certification
program into a threefold process that results in the most complete evaluation of an
Anti-Malware vendor’s products available.
• Static Testing – baseline tests that measure detection capabilities against
known threats.
• Dynamic Testing – measures product performance in relation to malware
executing as end users and corporations experience them in the real world .
• Real Time Testing – measures critical performance characteristics in a network
environment 24x7x365. The testing provides results in metrics including;
performance in relation to time, attack vectors, heuristic behavior analysis,
signature update and vendor research effectiveness.
The combination of these three, distinct test programs provide the highest level
certification of product performance available.
