The first (International Alternative Workshop on Aggressive Computing and Security was held on October 23-25 in Laval, France.

Anti-viruses were tested on Windows machines and testers had administrator’s privileges in the systems. For more information about the testing visit ESIEA’s web-site.

The test showed that self-protection of anti-viruses from such vendors as Kaspersky Lab and Eset could be disabled in 40 and 33 minutes respectively while the defence mechanism of Norton Antivirus would break much sooner, in 4 minutes. The McAfee anti-virus was the quickest to fall and surrendered to testers in 2 minutes. AVG and G Data anti-virus solutions also failed to pass the test.
