Antivirus Is 'Dead' Says Norton Software Boss

[super jumbe]

Antivirus software is "dead" according to an executive at the firm that pioneered it.

Symantec, which developed software to protect computers from hackers 25 years ago, says it no longer thinks of antivirus as a "moneymaker in any way".

Brian Dye, senior vice president for information security, said software only catches around 45% of malware attacks because hackers are increasingly sophisticated.

He said the company is now moving its business towards "detecting and responding" to attacks, rather than simply trying to protect against them.
