Seqrite endpoint protection wins the prestigious AV-TEST best performance 2024 award for corporate users
Seqrite is proud to announce that its Seqrite Endpoint Protection (EPP) has been honored with the AV-TEST Best Performance 2024 Award for Corporate Users. This accolade, awarded by the globally renowned independent testing institute AV-TEST, reflects Seqrite’s continued commitment to providing businesses with robust cybersecurity solutions that prioritise both protection and system efficiency.
AV-TEST, a leading independent testing organisation specialising in cybersecurity product evaluations, bases its annual awards on exhaustive analyses of protection capabilities, usability, and performance across thousands of test scenarios. The AV-TEST Best Performance Award recognises security solutions that demonstrate minimal system impact while maintaining high protection standards, which is a critical requirement for enterprises where operational efficiency is paramount.
Seqrite EPP excelled in rigorous year-long evaluations across key performance metrics, including system resource utilisation during routine tasks like application launches, file transfers, and web browsing. The product also showed exceptional boot time efficiency and responsiveness during full-system scans, alongside seamless integration with Windows environments without compromising user productivity. The award criteria focused on objective testing data collected throughout 2024, ensuring only solutions with consistent, enterprise-grade performance earned recognition.
Commenting on the stellar achievement, Vishal Salvi, CEO, Quick Heal Technologies Ltd., said, “Receiving the AV-TEST Best Performance Award validates our R&D team’s relentless focus on engineering cybersecurity solutions that excel under the most stringent real-world conditions. At Seqrite Labs, India’s largest malware analysis facility, our researchers analyse emerging threats, feeding critical insights into behavioral AI models that power preemptive detection in Seqrite EPP. This ‘security-through-innovation’ approach enabled us to achieve AV-TEST’s highest system performance ratings for neutralising zero-day attacks during testing. By optimising every layer from kernel-level process monitoring to cloud-based threat correlation, we have proven that enterprise-grade protection can coexist with seamless operational efficiency, and, in fact, is a necessity for businesses scaling digital transformation.”
This recognition arrives amid escalating cybersecurity challenges for corporate users. With cyberattacks targeting businesses at record highs and stringent regulations such as the EU’s NIS2 Directive and India’s DPDP Act coming into force, organisations face immense pressure to deploy solutions that comply with evolving standards while supporting seamless workflows. Heavy security tools risk disrupting operations, leading to employee frustration and potential vulnerabilities. Seqrite EPP addresses these challenges through its lightweight architecture, which reduces CPU and memory usage, coupled with real-time threat detection powered by AI-driven behavioral analysis. Its centralised management capabilities enable IT teams to enforce security policies across endpoints without introducing performance bottlenecks.
