Cybersecurity software is made to stop sophisticated cyberattacks. There are many cybersecurity software programs out there, with a variety of security tools available to the user.
Currently, my favorite is Bitdefender Total Security – Anti Malware Software. It gives protection for Android, Windows, Mac, and iOS (not Chromebooks). For the cost, I am impressed with the variety of tools that provide excellent protection. Some of the highlights of this program are:
- Virus Scanner (searches for viruses, spam, and pop-ups)
- Firewall (defends against known threats by scanning traffic going in and out of your computer on both your local network and the internet)
- Quarantine and removal tools (to remove malicious items)
- Vulnerability Assessment (my favorite)
- Ransomware Protection
- Anti-Fraud, Anti-Phishing, Antispam
- VPN
- Anti-Theft
- Safe Online Banking
- Webcam Protection
If you are looking for free protection, my picks would be Windows Security: System Guard, Antivirus & More for Windows 11 | Microsoft and SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition. If used together, these products will provide the security you are looking for.
