McAfee is readying new security software, code-named Falcon, to rival upcoming products from Symantec and newcomer Microsoft.
McAfee said on Tuesday that it plans to release four versions of its new "Falcon" security products, which is designed to rival Symantec and newcomer Microsoft.
Microsoft has spent billions of dollars in recent years to secure its software. Now it's payback time.
Symantec plans to introduce a security product later this year that will take on Microsoft's forthcoming Windows OneCare and Vista security technology.
Symantec will fight off Microsoft's security software challenge by being better at coming up with new ideas, the company's CEO said on Monday.
If you recently signed up with Microsoft's OneCare Live antivirus service -- and you use Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express -- there is a chance that your stored e-mails have been wiped out.
I found out last week that although Windows Vista will have a snazzy new firewall, by default it will be set to block only incoming traffic -- unless you decide to pay Microsoft an extra US$50 a year...
Consumers now are getting more for less of their money when they buy security software.
The software giant has been scooping up companies in the security field, but analysts wonder what it all adds up to.
Product marks company's entry into market for desktop security products for businesses, but not much is known about it yet.
Windows Live OneCare is the first of many managed online security services to debut this year. We recommend waiting, then comparing the offerings from Symantec, McAfee, and other established security vendors before deciding on a managed online security service.
For home and student use, we think Norton 360 represents the best value for ease of use, tools offered, and overall system performance. We recommend it over McAfee Total Protection and Microsoft Windows Live OneCare.
