“Quorum is a reputation-based technology, the latest from Norton. This technology does not use the signature system as the previous version, so more able to identify the latest malware malware-in cyberspace.” he said.

“With Quorum has developed over the past 3 years, the uniqueness of a malware can be identified. Quorum can track the various files and applications,” added Albert Lay, Technical Consultant Symantec.
