Doubtful for our organization. We use Symantec Endpoint Protection And Symantec Antivirus depending on the version of the OS.
===========
It’s not an enterprise ready tool like their Forefront security suite is. I would only use it as a backup to our primary AV (McAfee). I already use the Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool (MRT) in this fashion. It has come in useful in removing some previously undetected infections.
===========
benchmark anti-virus product august 2009 last comparative for the good detection/protection was
1st place go to G Data
2nd place to Avira and they give free protection for a basic protection.
3rd place is McAfee
then the 4th place is symantec — Norton
Microsoft is Number 14 on good detection/protection :)).
By the way I’m using antivirus Avira, antimalware I use SuperAntiSpyware for free and I protect my rootkit with threatFire also for free ;).
