Being an Antivirus vendor is tough business. Even giants like Symantec have trouble keeping up now and then.

In a comparative lab test conducted by Virus Bulletin this month, 35 antivirus products were run through a battery of tests in a Vista SP2 testing environment including virus scanning and avoiding false positives.

12 products failed the test (~30%). Among the failures was the enterprise Symantec Endpoint Security protection product. The company described the failure as a rare and obscure virus that has not been reported by any customers. However, it raises questions about vendors being able to keep-up with an ever-changing list of environment updates.

Clear Blue Security is an endpoint security protection product that can work inside a heterogeneous antivirus network, avoiding the cost and commitment to a single vendor. And in times of uncertain performance, Clear Blue Security allows users to switch antivirus vendors without an expensive detachment process.
