Does sky broadband come with internet security included?

Sky Q and Broadband Hubs have a default firewall (the new Max Hub apparently has cloud filtering too) and Sky Broadband Shield does some site blocking. Sky does not bundle antivirus / malware software into its broadband products: there was a tie-in with McAfee some years ago which has now ended.
