Run in association with The Sunday Times, Nielsen, The Creative Counsel (TCC) and D!d You Know, the Product of the Year awards are dedicated to recognizing and celebrating innovation in consumer goods.
 
Nielsen conducted the research nationally and a jury selected products for the consumer survey, ensuring that winners were voted for ‘by the people’. The opinions of 5 000 South Africans are what decide which products are awarded.
 
“Norton is delighted to win Product of the Year, an award which reflects the choice of the people,” said Kara Rawden, Senior Marketing Manager Middle East & Africa, Consumer Business Unit, Symantec. “With eight in ten adults (84 percent), in South Africa having been a victim of cybercrime in their lifetime,[i] the best defence and the greatest way to protect oneself, is to utilise up-to-date, comprehensive security software such as Norton Internet Security 2012.”
