REALTime
PERFORMANCE
- Always On
- Reactive
- Current
Now entering its 10th year of operation, West Coast Labs’ proprietary RealTime Continuous Testing Service is a continuous anti-malware testing and analysis framework that can react to real-world events and outbreaks.
​
Designed from the ground up to assist you in ongoing development and maintaining product performance, the RealTime CTS system is an invaluable tool. As well as providing up to the minute performance analysis, the RealTime CTS system also allows for unique and customizable test scenario configurations.

​
An Always On Approach
The RealTime Continuous Testing Service was designed to provide a greater frequency of testing, and therefore a more accurate representation, of anti-malware solution performance. Tapping into the West Coast Labs malware feeds, and incorporating the analysis data from WCL ATLAS, malware samples are able to be injected into the test system 24 hours a day thanks to the always-on testing of RealTime.
Why Current Results Matter
Malware evolves rapidly, with new variants constantly emerging to evade detection. An anti-malware product that scored well last month may fail against today’s threats. Outdated test results can give a false sense of security, missing recent detection failures or regressions caused by product updates. Real-time testing provides accurate, actionable insights by evaluating products against the latest threats as they appear. This ensures security teams and vendors can respond quickly, maintain effective protection, and make informed decisions. In a dynamic threat landscape, current results aren’t just useful — they’re essential for maintaining a strong, adaptive defense posture.
Real-world Reaction
Our automated system is engineered to dynamically respond to real-world cybersecurity events, active malware outbreaks, and evolving threat trends. Instead of relying on static, pre-selected sample sets, the system continuously receives and tests against newly observed threats, ensuring evaluations are both current and relevant. ​ By mirroring the rapid evolution of the threat landscape, the RealTime system provides a highly accurate measurement of a product’s true detection and protection capabilities in active conditions; evolving on traditional, schedule-based testing.
