AV-Comparatives Awards 2025 for K7

K7 products enjoyed a quite successful year in AV-Comparatives’ tests of consumer and enterprise security products, and were rewarded with numerous awards. These covered a variety of protection scenarios, system performance, and false positives, as well as a number of different platforms.

K7 Total Security is straightforward to install and use. It features a simple, navigable interface with secure default settings, yet also offers a high degree of customization to meet your specific needs.

K7 Security simplifies deployment and management, protecting client workstations and critical servers. The Centralised Management Server consolidates threats, implements endpoint security policies, and manages them with fewer IT resources. The web-based console handles K7 software installation on multiple endpoints, user group creation, policy enforcement, task scheduling, updates, and remote management of core capabilities such as Antivirus, Firewall, Application Control, and Web Content Filtering.

AV-Comparatives’ tests are very carefully designed and executed to thoroughly and realistically simulate scenarios that face users in real life. Consequently, a certification by AV-Comparatives is a guarantee of an effective and reliable product. An “Approved Product” award means that the software has been rigorously checked to ensure that it will perform its intended task competently. It is an industry-recognised standard of quality.

AV-Comparatives’ tests have multiple aspects, to represent the different requirements of IT security solutions. Further awards highlight the effectiveness of individual programs in different protection scenarios, low false positives, and low impact on system performance. Users can thus see which programs score highly in the categories that matter most to them.
