Kaspersky Endpoint Security Anti Spam

| August 26, 2015 | If you thought that you don’t need a Antivirus software and you are safe because you don’t visit dodgy websites, think again. I used to think that i knew quite a lot about and knew what not to click and what not to download from the internet, to keep myself safe from viruses and hackers. But I was wrong; my computer got a nasty virus 2 years ago, even though I was a cautious browser. I found out later that I had visited a reputed website that had got hacked, and was distributing virus unknown to them. So I had caught a nasty virus on my computer while visiting this website and this virus would not go away. My computer got infected by me just visiting this website and it took quite a few days to nail it down and clean it entirely from my computer by myself. I had to use three different tools and a whole week trialling out different software to get the job done. Luckily I didn’t have to re-install windows or something like that and lose any files in the process. Idecided right after this to get myself a decent antivirus and computer security product to save myself any future trouble. I have since used 2 trial products and 2 different brand full version antivirus computer security products on my laptop and Desktop computer so I know how these software’s work and can compare the features they have. If you browse regularly on the best internet and security protection software Warning with infections received through EMAILS Getting infected by opening emails from people you don’t know and clicking on dodgy links in email can often get your computer infected. Learn to recognize EMAIL spam when you see it. Mail services like Gmail do a great job filtering out most of it, but sometimes cleverly disguised ones can still slip through — and very often it’s a phishing message that can lead you to trouble by clicking a link that you shouldn’t be . The moral of the story, of course, is “look before you click.” Before i got into more detail with differentcomputer security software reviews below, I will tell you that I recommend both Norton Antivirus & AVG antivirus as first choices above others for ease of use and them being light on your computer (doesn’t hog your computer memory and slows it down). You see your computer memory makes your computer work even faster and if there is some other program hogging your computer memory things are going to slow down, so this is important. If you want to go by a feature to feature comparison then some Security software’s give you some nice features while some others will give you a totally different bonus features so they can even up in value in different ways. Is my antivirus is slowing down my computer In my opinion this is one very important feature you need to look out for in your computer security product. Memory Hogging. Why would you install a antivirus software that hogs your computer memory and slows down everything on your computer, that too just to keep it safe. I know Nortonantivirus had problems with this long time ago, but hey have refined and improved it so much that it not only keeps your computer secure with ease now, but hey have a really remodelled the whole user interface, which it makes it easy for any person to understand and much easier to use. They frequently auto update your antivirus to keep your software updated to tackle any new virus and to keep your pc safe and secure. I have put together this feature list and review below from my own personal experience using some of the products as well as reading other reviews from popular websites like   ,   etc to give it an even and fair review. What I think all basic Computer Security Antivirus software’s should have is listed below . Antivirus – This feature is necessary. Your antivirus will protect your against not only all kinds of computer viruses, but also nasty stuff you can pick up while browsing websites and documents etc Security – This is another feature that you will need to protectyour from hackers, it involves anti rootkit scans, Software firewall to stop hackers in their track. Email & USB scan – Get emails that are dodgy, your software can scan emails for dodgy attachments and scan a usb when inserted into your computer .USB are sometimes infected and can spread computer viruses Low computer memory usage – Your security product should not hog your computers running power and slow it down, just to keep it secure. These are some basic features that are included in most compute security products and are present in Norton and AVG and others software’s listed here. There are many paid anti-virus programs from such well-known names as Bit defender, McAfee, Norton/Symantec and Kaspersky Lab. Paid programs generally offer full featured additional features, which can be helpful or just overkill, depending on what kind of computer owner you are — cautious or computer nerd owner. But they certainly do the job well due to being a fully paid version and you can  choosewhat you want. Price and feature comparison chart of PC security software Below my review will list the software’s with price affordability an feature importance mainly and then drill down to the more pricey and multi-device cost options further down the list. Multi device security tools are becoming more popular, due to most people now having more than one gadget that needs security like a smartphone and a Laptop/desktop and possibly tablet or phablets. I have included well-known names like , Mc Afee (read more on maverick previous OWNER/CEO ) which have been in this industry for years and also some not very well known ones ( IOLO , Kapersky, Ashampoo) that are still as good or even better and do the job at an more affordable price.

Multi DeviceSecurity Most of these products will give you the option of protecting PCs, Macs, and also Android devices with different packages for multi devices . Antivirus or Software that covers multiple devices ,so that you can just buy one software and secure your smartphone , Desktop pc and laptop or ipad at the same time. Now days you get multiple device licenses that cover from 2 to 5 or ten devices. If you got 3 to 4 kids , you can end up with 15 to 20 devices in one household including laptops, Ipads, smartphones and computers. PC tune up Most computers and laptops slow down after a period of time, due to installing new software , loading new programs, browsing websites , watching videos and this leaves around a lot of junk that is not visible to the naked eye. A pc tune up utility can clean your PC of this junk and make it run smother and faster. If your security product includes a pc tune up utility it’s an added bonus.. if not you can always search for free software on the internetthat can do this [click here] FIREWALL When you say firewall immediately two programs come to my mind, Zone alarm and Windows Bit defender. Zone alarm comes to my mind because this is one of the best firewall for your pc if you are looking for exclusive firewall software that focuses mainly on this and has many options to tweak the level of your firewall security. But they also do have an Firewall antivirus combined product as well. If you already have the windows bit defender in your windows pc you don’t need to worry about an extra firewall in your security software. But if a firewall is provided with your antivirus it’s just a bonus and you can turn off the default windows bit defender on your pc. Most of these products will give you the option of protecting PCs, Macs, and also Android devices with different packages for multi-devices . There is possibly many questions that come to your mind before spending money to buy a computer security product. Few of these are listed below. ·Do You Really Need to Pay for Antivirus Software? · · Should you pay for internet security software? · Is Antivirus Software a Waste of Money? · I still don’t use anti-virus software. Am I still nuts? The answer is still yes to all of them, just for the two reasons trial and free products will always be limited in feature use(not giving you better protection against the most recent threats).Sometimes they will not get updated more often like full paying products. Why should you get a full paid product when it comes to computer security? For eg. IF you run a jewellery store..you will get the best security with cameras and alarms and all so you won’t compromise on security , and so it should be with your pc or phone on which you do your banking and transactions and enter pins. Insurance companies will also often ask the question- If you had computer security products on your computer if you are the victim of hackers or fraud and make a claim. My computer getting infected with a virus andtaking 1 week to sort out that infection proved the point to me , to get a paid product immediately. Microsoft itself even offers for Windows Vista and Windows 7. On Windows 8, it’s rebranded as Windows Defender and built into the system. Either version will scan your system for bad actors and keep a constant vigil on downloaded files. Protection for your Online and offline Business It’s not only average home users that are under threat from online computer viruses, but to a large proportion also businesses’ who are often targeted by hackers and criminals online. Recently many local businesses have been targeted by a virus also known as ransom ware named “cryptowall. No matter if your business is online or not you can easily get affected by this ransomware , just by opening an email or email attachment/link. Cryptowall 3.0 uses an exploit kit capable of attacking vulnerabilities in Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Internet Explorer, Java, and Silverlight. Most computers run at least one ofthese programs and so they can easily be targeted and information stolen from your computer. Cryptowall is believed to be attacking Australian businesses. Attacks using Cryptowall 3.0 encrypt your files, and the malicious individuals behind the malware demand payment for the key that enables you to decrypt the files. These payments can range from a few hundred dollars to more than $10,000. Stay Smart Online has provided alerts about a number of ransomware attacks in the past, . If your computer has been compromised report the incident to the (ACORN).
