Kaspersky Security Cloud Free detects better than Kaspersky Free

[ccm58]

I tested latest versions of both Kaspersky Security Cloud Free (KSC) and the new 2022 Kaspersky Free (KF) with Internet Download Manager (IDM).

I found that with the tests available at https://www.amtso.org/security-features-check/, KSC blocks IDM from downloading ALL the test malware esp. the various compressed malware. But KF only blocks IDM from downloading some malware but allows some others. I think it is because KSC scans in the cloud but KF relies on definitions.

I hope Kaspersky developers can test KF with the said tests because they claimed that KF can block malware from downloading in the first place.

Also, KSC comes with free VPN although very little of 300MB per day and no KillSwitch.
