The resulting 'RAP Quadrant' shows that several well-known products fall in to the lower left hand quarter of the graph, including PC Tools' Anti-Virus, Fortinet's Forticlient, and CA's Internet Security Suite, all of which achieved detection levels below 50 percent on both axes when configured in their default mode.
