What is the difference between personal and business antivirus software?
While both types of antivirus are used to help prevent cyberattacks, there are significant differences between the software used for personal antivirus and commercial antivirus.
Personal cybersecurity focuses on protecting individual devices, while business antivirus must protect a company’s network - where individual devices are referred to as endpoints.
To operate in this way, business security requires an additional level of patch management and tools for monitoring and helping protect multiple devices, as well as cloud and server security.
