During testing, the Kaspersky Lab product was ranked best according to several criteria; in particular, the percentage of blocked unwanted content: adult (99.4%), gambling (99%) and weapon (88%) sites.

AV-Comparatives tested the solutions for children's online security on 2,000 unwanted URLs as well as 100 safe URLs, in order to test for false positives. To successfully pass certification, the product needed to block at least 98% of pornographic sites and have no serious vulnerabilities or bugs in its operation.

"In today's digital society, it's hard to find a child that does not use gadgets or have access to the internet. That’s why ensuring children's online safety is an extremely important issue. We are very pleased that our product Kaspersky Safe Kids for Windows has been certified by AV-Comparatives. This recognition once again confirms its reliability and effectiveness,” said Konstantin Ignatev, an expert on children’s online safety at Kaspersky Lab.
