Sophos v9 detection rate not improving?

Hey there base on this test report by an individual, it seems that your detection rate has not improved and there are a few locations/files that you miss.. Avast seems to be improving their detection rate. Could you update your database/scan engine to improve the detection rate at those missing location/files

April's detection rate

Other vendors also seem to use this results and it seems that F-secure improve its detection rate once after those results are release

  • Using http://securityspread.com/contact/ I have sent an email to Security Spread, with the link you supplied for the upload of malware samples and a link to this discussion. Might I suggest that you contact them directly as well, since they may react more positively to a request they perceive as genuinely coming from Sophos, not from a Sophos user.

    I'd like to see Sophos rated at least as highly as Intego, and if the only reason it isn't is because of a number of missing malware samples, then I hope everyone involved can get this hooked up as quickly as possible.
