With greater technology and Internet use comes greater responsibility. The adoption of new technology and online forms of communication is growing among adults over age 65. Older adults have also become more concerned with security and privacy than younger generations. Let’s examine how connected, tech-savvy, and concerned today’s seniors really are.

I couldn’t agree with you more. I’ll be 65 next month and take computer security very seriously, compared to my son who is 35 and thinks just because he uses apple systems he has no need for AV’s and the like.
I have checked out lots of AV’s and only recently installed ZoneAlarm (free). So far it is proving to be the most comprehensive of them all, and I’m very impressed with it, in many ways.
My biggest concern is with key loggers, as these can be used to overcome just about everything, secure payment sites, encrypted passwords, etc. This threat, more than anything, is why I do not like making payments or transactions on line. I trialled Zemana anti-logger, but they were so “twitchy” that when I went to purchase it, they insisted they contact me by phone to confirm who I was, but they didn’t, and my order was refused.
How ironic is that?
Maybe your company should think about including such protection in your packages.
