Thank you for your question and interest in my work. This issue needs to be addressed in a comprehensive manner, it all depends on the software, the technical capabilities of the computer and the goals of the work. Therefore, I can not recommend a specific anti-virus program, since there are also features of using antiviruses in a certain country.
I recomment Norton because I am personally satisfied with it. I have used it for the past 8 years and my computers have not had any challenges. I was recommended by a friend and I don't regret choosing it. I am a lecturer and on average I work with 100 students every year each bringing their memory sticks but norton always identifies the threats and eliminate them.
Hello! I think to choose the best antivirus, you may follow studies from international institutions such as AV-Test [https://www.av-test.org/en/] or AV Comparisons [https://www.av-comparatives.org/] , which attest to the efficiency of the most diverse antivirus. I recommend also reading the "Anti Virus Comparative - Summary Report" (you can download from this second site). Regards.
