Symantec Norton Security

Description

Symantec Norton Security is an Internet security suite that replaces the previous programs "Norton Antivirus" and "Norton Internet Security." It protects computers, smartphones and tablets from malware, as well as Internet attacks. A subscription fee is required to protect up to 5 devices.

Norton Security offers Threat Monitoring and SONAR technologies to provide 24/7 protection. The software combines feedback from millions of Norton users to identify incoming threats, such as viruses, spyware, Trojan horses, worms, bots, and rootkits, in order to avert them. Norton Security's protection is always up-to-date, ensuring automatic downloads and installation of product and feature updates, even when you are not using your device.

While some applications use a large amount of system resources, Norton Security executes with a small footprint. The software has minimal impact on the runtime speed and boot performance of the system. This is partially possible because of Norton Security's Vulnerability Protection, which locates the most vulnerable regions of the system and scans commonly infected areas, then efficiently allocates system resources to the places with the highest potential threat.

Norton Security is installed primarily on home devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computers. However, small businesses can also use it. Users benefit from the overall system protection, which protects devices from viruses, spyware, and other malicious threats. The software protects against vulnerabilities and weaknesses found in commonly used applications. Norton Security is a strong solution for protecting home users' computers.
