[Krebs on Security] Antivirus is Dead: Long Live Antivirus!

Krebs on Security has posted a new item.

An article in The Wall Street Journal this week quoted executives from antivirus
pioneer Symantec uttering words that would have been industry heresy a few years
ago, declaring antivirus software "dead" and stating that the company is
focusing on developing technologies that attack online threats from a different
angle. This hardly comes as news for anyone in the security industry who's been
paying attention over the past few years, but I'm writing about it because this
is a great example of how the cybercrime underground responds to -- and in some
cases surpasses -- innovations put in place by the good guys.
