IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cylance® Inc., the company that revolutionized the antivirus industry with AI-powered prevention that blocks everyday malware along with today’s most advanced cyberthreats, announced that it has published a how-to anti-malware testing guide, Next-Generation Anti-Malware Testing for Dummies, Cylance Special Edition. It is available in both print and digital versions.
“The only way for security teams to know whether an anti-malware product will defend against the latest malware in their own environments is to test in their own environments, yet many aren’t sure how to do so,” said Chad Skipper, vice president of product testing and industry relations at Cylance. “In this book, we’ve presented multiple detailed methodologies for performing highly effective, real-world tests. We want to enable the industry to test for themselves and my hope is that this book can be utilized as a starting point to this testing.”
