ESET INTERNET SECURITY PROTECTING YOUR DATA AND PRIVACY
Protects you in critical ways that Windows Defender doesn’t
In
2017, you need security software that looks beyond the threat of virus infections. The modern threat landscape is more complex than ever before, so you need a solution that protects every facet of your online presence. And while Microsoft may claim that its Windows Defender product – built into Windows itself – is enough to keep you secure online, it’s really just the bare minimum of security.
It’s also no longer enough to simply be aware of the modern threat landscape. All it takes is one wrong click and even the most cautious internet user could be subject to a ransomware attack, with some hacker demanding you pay a ransom to gain access to your own files. Or you could be deceived into giving up vital personal information via an email that looks like it has come from a trusted source, such as a bank. And all the while, computer virus numbers continue to multiply.
RELIABLE, FAST AND THOROUGH
Anti-virus protection is only one part of the modern equation. Thankfully, ESET Internet Security offers award-winning protection from traditional vectors and script- based attacks, as well as protection from botnets, and exploits delivered via your web browser, PDF documents, or Java-based software. As well as being comprehensive, ESET Internet Security can deliver that protection without slowing down your PC’s performance.
ESET’s anti-virus solution has detected 98.8 per cent of threats in real-world testing by AV-TEST, a well-respected and independent tester of security software. Windows Defender scored only 88 per cent in similar testing, and delivered a much higher rate of false alarms. In testing by AV- Comparative last year, ESET’s anti-virus software reported zero false alarms.
ALL-ASPECTS DEFENCE
Then there are the features that Windows Defender doesn’t even come close to offering. As we live more and more of our lives online, it is important that a security solution keep our day-to-daytransactions secure. ESET’s solution automatically secures online transactions with internet banking sites and payment gateways.
Ransomware attacks are becoming more and more common, but ESET Internet Security provides protection against malware that aims to encrypt your personal files. If you frequently use a webcam for online communication through services like Skype, ESET Internet Security also alerts users whenever anyone other than you try to use your camera. It also keeps an eye on the security of your router, and any unauthorised connections, while a personal firewall keeps hackers away from your PC, and helps you remain invisible while accessing public Wi-Fi hotspots.
FAMILY SAFE, FULL CONTROL
Keeping your entire family safe is also a major priority for ESET. ESET Internet Security offers a full range of parental controls that let you block categories of content that you do not want your children to see, as well as specific web sites.
All of these services are also backed by free technical support, provided either by email or over the phone, to anywhere you are the in the world – so you know you’re always protected no matter where you are.
