NOD32 is the only solution worldwide that has not missed a single “In the Wild” worm or virus in testing since May 1998 and holds the world record of Virus Bulletin 100% Awards, obtaining the 34th Award in October 2005.

This table is based on the number of times all of these products have been tested periodically on various operating systems with the Virus Bulletin since May 1998 which is when NOD32 was first submitted to them for testing.
