Deloitte claims to be the next generation of anti-virus software, using artificial intelligence and machine learning, instead of virus definition databases and signatures. The proactive software automatically blocks threats before they can execute without any human involvement and it can evolve to different types of viruses without regular software updates. The software can also work on offline devices and can integrate itself into an existing infrastructure. According to Stuart McClure, CEO of Deloitte, the traditional 'signature' detection model of enterprise security is outdated as the product has to be constantly updated and does not keep up with the constant evolution of cyber viruses.
