Boston – Results from AV-Comparatives and AV-TEST Place Quick Heal’s Protection Levels Ahead of Established Industry Leaders

Quick Heal Technologies, a leading global provider of IT security solutions, has earned an Advanced rating from AV-Comparatives, an independent testing authority focused exclusively on security software. The file detection test results, released this quarter, puts Quick Heal at par with industry leaders such as ESET, Panda and Sophos, and ahead of a number of established vendors including AVG and Trend Micro.

“Certification by AV-Comparatives represents an official seal of approval that is globally recognized,” said Farokh Karani, Director - North America, Sales and Channels, Quick Heal Technologies. “As we enter the North American market, the advanced rating from this highly respected testing organization gives our technology immediate credibility and reinforces the Quick Heal brand as a name our customers and channel partners can trust.”

With more than 17 million customers in over 100 countries worldwide, Quick Heal, last month announced the immediate availability of its SEQRITE^TM line of data security solutions in North America. Designed specifically for small to medium enterprises (SME), SEQRITE addresses North America’s SME market lack of comprehensive, endpoint, network and mobile security solutions and offers everything an SME needs to prevent internal and external threats, attacks and malicious viruses before they strike.

Quick Heal Bests Industry Leaders with High Protection Rating from AV-TEST

Since its founding more than two decades ago, Quick Heal has continued to earn recognition and certifications for the performance and effectiveness of its data security solutions. In addition to the AV-Comparatives results this quarter, earlier this year it received outstanding protection ratings from AV-TEST including two 100% scores for its Total Security 2016 offering. Quick Heal’s AV-TEST scores surpassed those of industry leaders such as ESET, Intel Security (formerly McAfee) and AVG when it comes to protecting against viruses and malware.

“SEQRITE is built around the Quick Heal AV engine, which is internationally certified by OPSWAT, Checkmark, ICSA Labs, AV-Comparatives and other recognized organizations,” said Sanjay Katkar, Quick Heal CTO and co-founder. “We are proud to bring our proven, world-class SEQRITE technology – priced and bundled specifically to address SME needs – to our North American customers and partners.”

The SEQRITE product line eliminates the need for SMEs to purchase separate point solutions for end-point protection, network security and mobile device management to thwart web and network-based attacks. With SEQRITE, SMEs gain a robust, integrated web-enabled solution that eases administration and creates time and budget savings for busy and resource-strapped IT departments. The SEQRITE product line provides cross-platform support for Apple, Windows, iOS and Android endpoints, servers, networks/gateways, and total mobile device management. It is also offered in competitively priced bundles and modular point solutions that are priced for SMEs, yet designed with reseller profits in mind.
