In the latest version, a variety of key features such as Antivirus, Smart Firewall, Bot Protection, Network Monitoring, and Identity Protection as well as software upgrades are available. Norton Internet Security is available in both PC and Mac OS.

The key features of Norton Internet Security are:

• Active Security Checks
• Latest virus definitions
• Protection against spams and phishing
• Active security from online threats
• Parental Controls

Active Security Checks

One of the main features of Norton Internet Security is its capability to actively perform security checks whenever you are online, to avoid contacting any dangerous software or viruses. With active security and active protection, Norton Internet Security also updates itself to quickly get the latest details on security without disrupting the processes running on your computer. This updating process slows down if you use a DVD or CD player, or watch a movie, so your computer use is not impacted.

Latest virus definitions

Norton Internet Security clearly defines and delivers explanations for threats and performance problems. Whenever you download a file, Norton Internet Security can tell you if that file or program is trustworthy and where it has come from. It can also detect how the downloaded file would impact the PC’s performance and resources.

Protection against spams and phishing

E-mails are usually the target for spamming and phishing, but now, with Norton Internet Security, infections from e-mails as well as instant messages can be detected.

Active security from online threats

Whenever a user searches for information online, Norton Internet Security has the ability to alert him or her about a dangerous site or suspicious sellers or links that appear. This means that Norton Internet Security has a very active security feature, especially when someone uses the Internet or makes an online purchase.

Norton Internet Security also has an improved security system to protect your computer from various Internet threats like viruses, bots, and spyware, whenever there is online activity. This active security system also blocks hackers, and whenever suspicious software tries to download on your system, Norton Internet Security acts quickly to block these risks. In reaction to this, Norton Internet Security also has shorter time span for scans now, making sure that dangerous software and risks are immediately eliminated before the risks intensify.

Parental Controls

Parental controls are also available now in Norton Internet Security that enables parents to have more control on the Internet activities of the children. This can also help parents teach their children good Internet practices to avoid any sites or Internet activities that are not fit for them.

Norton Internet Security is being continuously updated and improved for a more active and safer Internet activity and to protect a user’s personal information.
