Companies need to use a mix of various security tools to combat malware such as anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewalls, according to Tony Neate, managing director of Get Safe Online.
"On computers, [consumers] need online security and a security package to cover anti-virus, anti-spyware, and make sure they have a firewall," Mr Neate said.
"The most important thing now is updating the operating system [as well as] the applications or programmes, and to make sure that they have got an encryption on any wireless [network] that they have," he said.
His comments emerged after TalkTalk recently announced the launch of their new internet security product HomeSafe; which is a network level broadband security service.
The expert went on to say that "it is a great option for any internet service provider to provide or give an option of providing different levels of security for people who would like it," he added.
