Symantec offers betas for two Norton 2008 apps
Symantec has added Norton Antivirus 2008 and Norton Internet Security 2008 to it's Beta Center. Enhancements to Norton Antivirus 2008 include better performance and updated Symantec Online Network for Advanced Response (SONAR) heuristics. Enhancements to Norton Internet Security 2008 include those in Norton Antivirus 2008 plus Norton Identity Safe (from Norton Confidential), and enhanced network monitoring. Both pieces of software are expected to include new browser vulnerability protection, codenamed "Canary", in their final release.
The Symantec beta program includes no technical support, although customer feedback is welcome. Symantec reminds participants in the beta program not to install these apps on production machines. Beta software is intended for testing only.
