You’re already doing a lot to protect yourself online. However, evolving threats require evolving protection.
Norton 360 is a comprehensive suite of digital security applications that help protect your PCs, Macs, smartphones and tablets. It provides real-time protection against cyberthreats such as viruses or malware, and it incorporates security algorithms that protect your private information when you go online.
Another important feature of Norton 360 is that it is backed by a global civilian intelligence network of individuals who are constantly monitoring for new potential cyberthreats.
Here are five important features offered in Norton 360 memberships:
1. Protection for your devices
These days your personal information lives in multiple locations, and it’s important to keep it private, wherever it is and however you access it. For example, you might shop on your tablet but pay your bills or check your account balances on your smartphone. You need to be protected however you go online.
Norton 360 provides multi-device protection to help protect of your PCs, Macs, smartphones, and tablets. You can even manage protection for your devices through an easy-to-use Web portal.
2. VPN with bank-grade encryption
The personal information you send and receive over Wi-Fi can be stolen, or your online activities tracked, when you bank, shop or post online. This can happen over your home network, or when you’re on the go using unsecured networks such as public Wi-Fi. That’s why it’s important to help safeguard your online privacy with a VPN.
Norton 360 subscribers can secure their Wi-Fi connection with the bank-grade encryption of Norton Secure VPN. The VPN helps protects your devices and the information you send and receive when using Wi-Fi connections, and it also helps keep your online activity and browsing history private from companies that want to track it.
3. PC Cloud Back up to help keep your data safe
It’s important to have confidence that you can recover your data if it’s lost, whether you lose it because of a cyberattack or a hardware failure.
Norton 360 makes it easy to back up your important information by providing PC Cloud Backup.
We know you have photos, music, movies, and documents that are important to you, and so we automatically back them up and securely store them in the cloud.
4. Security for the whole family‡
Keeping kids safer online shouldn’t mean the end of their freedom, but it should be the start of an open conversation about building smart and healthy online habits.
Norton 360 includes parental controls to help you foster those good online habits. Even if your kids are sitting in the same room with you, they are likely engaging in the online world. Norton Parental Control gives you tools to see the videos they watch1, the websites they visit2, the terms they search for, and the apps they download, plus content filtering.
These tools help you facilitate positive parenting and tackle important topics proactively. They also help you manage the time your kids spend online by scheduling screen time limits for their devices.
Parental Controls is included in Norton 360, so you can protect your family and your devices all in a single product.
5. Support to Remove Viruses or Your Money Back
All Norton 360 auto-renewing plans come with an additional benefit called the Norton Virus Protection Promise3, which offers access to Norton experts who can work with you to diagnose and remove viruses on your devices. If a Norton expert is unable to remove the virus, you may be entitled to a refund on your Norton Membership.
That’s the peace of mind you get from Norton. We’re so confident in our ability to keep you secure, we offer a 100% guarantee that we can keep your devices virus-free or your money back3.
