It will be interesting what an insurance company thinks is needed.
If having an antivirus can create possibly more security holes than it closes - then from an insurance perspective they would not want you to have it.
i.e. if they have to pay based upon an attack - they want to ensure the lowest risk.

With that said I prefer to view security as, "You likely will be the victim of a planned attack, so plan from there", but still. Odds are not favourable.
