VIPRE Advanced Security has received AV-Comparatives’ highest distinction—the Advanced+ award—in the March 2025 Malware Protection Test, underscoring its excellence in defending against both known and emerging threats.

Proven Protection Against Real-World Threats

The March 2025 Malware Protection Test evaluated the ability of 19 leading security products to detect and prevent infections from a wide range of malware threats. Unlike other tests focusing solely on web-based threats, this rigorous assessment examined malware introduced via USB drives, network shares, and other offline vectors—simulating threats that may already exist on a device before execution. In this field, VIPRE stood out for its strong performance across all attack stages.

VIPRE Advanced Security was rigorously tested using 10,030 recent and prevalent malware samples on a fully updated Windows 11 64-bit system. The evaluation included offline and online scanning as well as live execution, mirroring real-world conditions.

Strong Results In Every Stage of Attack

VIPRE earned the Advanced+ ranking by outperforming the field in every major category:

  • 98.7% detection rate in both online and offline scenarios
  • 99.93% overall protection rate during execution testing
  • One of the lowest false positive counts among all tested products
  • Surpassed the industry average in each measured area

These results highlight VIPRE’s strong, layered defense by detecting dormant risks, blocking harmful changes, and using cloud intelligence to stop even unknown malware in real time. With a layered approach to security, including real-time scanning, behavioral detection, and cloud intelligence, VIPRE helps users stay protected in a constantly evolving threat landscape.

Award-Winning Security Across Products

The industry-leading malware protection of VIPRE doesn’t just stand alone; it powers key features across other Ziff Davis consumer security solutions. VIPRE’s threat intelligence cloud fuels the Threat Protection feature of IPVanish, helping block malicious sites, ads, and trackers during VPN sessions. That same engine drives security tools like Link Checker and QR Code Checker, which flag unsafe content and feed insights back into the system—continually strengthening protection across all products. These integrations will deepen in 2025 as VIPRE’s award-winning malware defense becomes even more central to the IPVanish security experience.
