Microsoft: No antivirus product yet
C|Net | at | by Mike
Microsoft intends to create an antivirus service in the near future, but has not finalized its plans yet, a company executive said Tuesday. The comments followed a media report that the company was readying its entry into the virus protection market. However, the software giant has not decided what form its service will take, said Amy Carroll, director of product management for Microsoft's Security Business and Technology Unit.
"Our plan is to make antivirus part of our pay-for product offerings," she said. "But we don't have specific AV product plans right now."
