Description
Stay protected while browsing online using McAfee Internet Security. The majority of threats that harm your device come from the internet. They can infect you via various methods that you wouldn’t be able to avoid without proper protection in action. This includes malicious and infected websites, suspicious advertisements, links that redirect you to harmful sites, as well as file downloads filled with malware.
McAfee Internet Security is a carefully crafted solution to help users avoid these threats when surfing the internet. It doesn’t only provide protection, but peace of mind knowing that no matter what you click on, nothing can harm you or your computer.
The safe browsing feature can determine whether or not a website or link is safe to click on and scans your downloaded files for malware as well. Utilize the warnings to determine what websites to avoid, and quickly neutralize dangerous downloads.
We all set up online accounts when browsing the internet, whether it be for an email service or social media. McAfee Internet Security comes with a password manager which doesn’t only help you remember passwords but keeps them all secure under multiple layers of protection. Much safer than the integrated “Remember Password” feature inside your browser.
Additional extras include performance optimization, ransomware shield, cloud-based threat detection, and free support from the McAfee Internet Security team.
