“With our antivirus solution being used on more than 50% percent of the Windows 10 PCs deployed in commercial organizations, it is now the most commonly used antivirus solution in commercial organizations on that platform,” says Brad Anderson, Corporate Vice President, Enterprise Mobility and Security.
