This is normal to see one's security product listed in the Registry Section. Security products DONOT usually report themselves in the traditional manner (the one that ccleaner uses) and you would not want them to as it would make disabling them (via MALWARE) much easier.

Two steps you can take
1) Tell Ccleaner to ignore these two entires

or

2) (RECOMMENDED) REad and follow my signature :)
ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION
DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF.
Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark)
ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.
