According to a researcher in the future, the "good" virus will be an important part of the corporate security strategy.

For years, security experts have had to argue a lot about whether to use 'good' viruses to find and destroy other dangerous viruses.

However the majority of opinions are still very different.

Aitel is one of those who believe that 'virus technology' can help reduce the costs businesses invest in maintaining and securing network systems.
