BANGALORE: In the early days of the Internet, virus was a subject of huge discussion, with people debating over the best antivirus software for PCs. But as years passed antivirus become a lesser subject of interest with people in the security industry predicting the death of antivirus software.
One of the reasons for this perception is the daunting number of viruses and malwares thrown into the internet by hackers and at times by the same companies that manufacture antivirus software.
According to Lutz Blaeser, the Managing director of Intact Software Distribution, “the bottom line is hundreds of thousands of new malware samples are discovered each month. In fact, close on three new strands every second.”
