[QUOTE="XhenEd, post: 672532, member: 19498"] Kaspersky Internet Security, Bitdefender Internet Security, Avast Internet Security, Emsisoft AntiMalware, etc. :LOL: A reason Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) are not so much an issue for home users is that they are time, effort and money-consuming. The target of the attack has to be important for the attacker, for whatever reason. Usually, VIPs, like politicians and businessmen, are the targets, not the home users (unless a home user is a mortal enemy of a hacker). :) This is not to say home user versions of AVs are negligent. Home version AVs still protect against some forms of APTs, but these AVs don't employ very advanced detection/prevention of APTs due to a reason above, and that utilizing advanced techniques require more PC resources, which may slow down PC performance. :) [/QUOTE]
