What is the best antivirus? - eviltoast

I’ve looked this up a lot, and I keep getting completely different results in each page I clicked.

I want to know what is the best, most secure antivirus, that’s universal (Supports Windows, MacOS, Linux, Android), that detects 100% of malware.

It doesn’t need to support Linux, but I thought it would be nice.

If you think “antivirus that detects 100% of malware” doesn’t exist, then the one that finds the most malware the fastest

Yes, it can be anti-malware too, but it should fit the conditions above as well.

(Disclaimer: This question and similar questions were Googled before asking here, and I did not find the answers I was looking for.)

    So there definitely isn’t a one-size fits all solution here and there isn’t one that detects everything. Security software like this is reactive by nature (ie: they cant protect you against threats that dont exist yet and malware developers do their best to avoid detection)

    That being said, the default Windows Defender that comes pre-installed on any modern Windows OS is surprisingly robust. A decade ago they were a joke, but they’ve really improved things since.

    If you’re looking for a paid cross-platform solution I’ve been mostly happy with SentinelOne, although it’s a bit of a resource hog on low-spec machines.
