Computer security vendor Symantec has opened test versions of two of its Norton 2009 products to the public.
Antivirus firm McAfee's president believes the company will be able to compete with Microsoft after the software giant launches its OneCare Live security products -- because security is not something you can do "part-time".
Symantec plans to introduce a security product later this year that will take on Microsoft's forthcoming Windows OneCare and Vista security technology.
Late last week Trend Micro released its Internet Security 2009 and Internet Security Pro 2009 products, touting enhanced performance, features and better end-user education.
It's that time of year again, with security companies releasing their 2009 range. This gallery gives you an insight into Trend Micro's offering.
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?
Microsoft launched its Windows Live OneCare antivirus package in the US earlier this year and instantly grabbed 15 percent of the market; although this may be good in terms of short term revenue, it could completely wreck everything the software giant has invested in improving its reputation for security.
Today, Symantec released Norton 360 Version 2.0, but I wonder whether the security giant has learned from its past mistakes?
Symantec is about to launch Norton 360 in Australia and although the product seems to have some interesting features, it will take more than marketing hype to persuade me that the company has stopped making bloated and unreliable software.
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.

In this special report, ZDNet Australia presents a three-part exclusive video interview with Westpac Bank chief information security officer, David Backley, in addition to tips and reviews for businesses to thwart security attacks.
Being inundated with spam e-mail is annoying enough, but it can be downright problematic when its affecting productivity and diverting staff attention. We look at one SMB's successful battle with spam and a few security solutions that might come in handy.
Consumers now are getting more for less of their money when they buy security software.
AVG Anti-Virus 7.1 Professional Single Edition is a solid, no-frills virus scanner. But you'll need to purchase antispyware software and a firewall for complete protection.
Despite a face-lift, the redesigned McAfee VirusScan Plus continues to consume system resources and leaves its customers lacking support.
eTrust EZ Antivirus 7.1 is a dependable antiviral crusader that's worth a look only if you're already running antispyware and firewall software.
ZoneAlarm Antivirus 6.5 remains the easiest-to-use and best firewall integrated with antivirus protection on the market today.
While Norton Confidential beta from Symantec aims to protect your online transactions, and its antisphishing toolbar compares favourably to Netcraft's own offering, we found the Norton package to be overly large, including many other Symantec applets that seem unnecessary.
