Symantec has launched the beta test version of its anti-spyware application, which will be sold from June as part of its Norton Internet Security 2005 application.
Symantec is investigating a potential weakness in the way its corporate antivirus software stores login credentials, the security vendor said on Wednesday.
Apple Macintosh users could be making themselves less secure by installing Symantec's flagship anti-virus application.
Microsoft is unlikely to launch its own enterprise anti-virus software because it is not geared up to make changes to its products as quickly as traditional anti-virus companies, according to the chief executive officer of Sophos.
Exploit codes that take advantage of a security vulnerability in Symantec's Norton AntiVirus software have been published on the Internet, which could leave users vulnerable to an attack.
If you ran a software company and an independent security researcher contacted you with proof that your product contains security vulnerabilities, how would you react?
Symantec published its 10th Internet Threat Report this week and quietly admitted a few days later that its predictions of increasing Mac-targeted spyware threats have not been realised.
In three years phishing has transformed from an unknown threat into a multi-million dollar industry; in the next stage of its evolution, phishers will avoid using spam and instead hijack small parts of 'trusted' Web sites in order to bypass anti-phishing tools.

Anti-virus companies have played down the threat from the Nolor (aka Cailont) mass-mailing e-mail worm, a "garden variety" virus that spreads by sending itself to Windows address book entries through an executable attachment.
Norton Internet Security 2009 hits all the right security notes and its superior protection technologies might even win back some jaded anti-Symantec folks. We take you on a tour.
Spyware is gaining more mindshare amongst IT departments and security vendors alike. We round up eight tools that take on the undercover software.
Zotob.E, Tpbot-A, Rbot.CBQ and IRCbot.worm: all names given to a single worm that wreaked havoc in Windows 2000 systems last month. Among the plethora of identifiers, perhaps the most useful -- CME-540 -- didn't make an impact.
Though it doesn't include a firewall anymore, VirusScan 8.0 will detect and remove adware and spyware, as well as malicious worms and scripts.
Antivirus software makers aim to protect users against Internet threats, but now have to face a new threat of their own: Microsoft.

An excellent all-in-one PC defence: Norton Internet Security 2004 is the best all-in-one security suite, thanks to its fine spam filter.
As we await final code and therefore test results on the overall performance of this year's version of Norton AntiVirus, the new interface and features alone do not suggest an automatic KO in our latest antivirus roundup of 2008 products.
