For information, the software anti-virus Symantec Endpoint Protection 14.3 RU9 french version isn't still available to download on BroadCom website.
Thank you very much LaDidi21 for the information.

That's some serious heavyweight stuff, pretty chilling! $$

And at the same time, since 90% of the world uses these services, they are therefore competent in security,

-ESET Endpoint Security (Slovakia),
-Bitdefender GravityZone (Romania)
-Kaspersky Endpoint Security (Switzerland- edit:Russia)

 

This makes me worried about using Symantec products to be honest.
