I was reading one of the recent articles published on the topic and I was shocked to hear these words “Antivirus is dead” by Brian Dye, Symantec's senior vice president for information security.
And then I ran a query on Google Trends and found the downward trend in past 5 years.
Next, one of the friends was working with a cloud security company known as Elastica which was bought by Blue Coat in late 2015 for a staggering $280 million dollars. And then Symantec bought Blue Coat in the mid of 2016 for more than $4.6 Billion dollars.
I personally believe that the antivirus industry is in decline and on the other hand re-positioning themselves as an overall computer/online security companies.
