ESET Enters 2014 with Several Awards from European Magazines, Consumer Protection Organization

BRATISLAVA – ESET,  the global leader in proactive digital protection with a record 10 years of consecutive VB100 awards for its ESET NOD32 technology, is entering 2014 with a string of awards from magazines and organization in Europe. German-language Android Magazine has named ESET Mobile Security the app with the best Anti-Theft feature, Polish IT Professional magazine named ESET Endpoint Security as the product of the year, and the Dutch Consumer Organization considers ESET Smart Security 7 to be the best security suite on the market.

Last week, the Dutch Consumer Organization in the Netherlands – Consumentenbond – has published a test of security products where ESET Smart Security 7 has earned the top spot of the 18 tested products. “ESET Smart Security performs very well at all levels: the protection is excellent, the overhead on the system is low and the program is very user-friendly,“ states the agency in its annual review.

ESET Endpoint Security was named “Product of the Year“ by the readers of Polish IT Professional magazine for IT experts and professionals. ESET Endpoint Security has earned the award for the second year in a row and as the editorial office says, readers opt for “complex solutions, suitable for use in developed IT infrastructure, where remote administration is crucial.”

Lastly, it is the award from the German-language Android Magazine, where ESET Mobile Security built for Android smartphones and tablets has received the Best App award in the Anti-Theft category. ESET has just released the next generation of ESET Mobile Security BETA for public testing. The new BETA version boasts improved user interface and full integration of Anti-Theft into my.eset.com. Additionally in Germany,  ESET Mobile Security (both premium and free version) was scoring high in the test of the most read German computer magazine ComputerBild and in another test by the same magazine – ESET Smart Security was one of only six most relevant tested products.

“At ESET, our primary concern is always the users whose data we are protecting, so they can enjoy cyberspace without worry. We are happy that readers of well-known magazines in Germany and Poland as well as the consumer agency in the Netherlands are evaluating our efforts with these outstanding marks,“ says Miroslav Mikus, Head of ESET EMEA Sales and Marketing.
