Norton Security- a comprehensive antivirus built on the basis of reliable security solutions from Symantec.

The new product incorporates a suite of proven world-class antivirus technologies - Norton Antivirus, Norton Internet Security and Norton 360 - and replaces them in a single protection solution.

Norton Security leverages 5 levels of security for your computer, sensitive data, and online activity, including firewall and intrusion prevention technologies (IPS), file protection technologies (traditional antivirus capabilities), reputation-based protection technologies (Insight), and technologies based on behavioral analysis (SONAR).

Many of these security technologies have been extended and / or completely rebuilt from the ground up. Let's take a look at the main improvements that are already available in the new version.

New opportunities

New interface and experience

The most obvious change is the new user interface. Offering a clean and modern look and feel, Norton Security sets the tone for a security solution that will be used on various versions of Windows operating systems.

Next-generation anti-virus engine

The new anti-virus engine provides real-time detection of malware, fundamentally changing the way traditional file protection is used.

Key features of the new engine include:

All of Symantec's intelligence — over 4,300 billion interactions — is now leveraged by Norton Security's real-time protection. Each time you access a file, Norton evaluates it using thousands of criteria to determine the potential risks of a threat.

Powered by Norton Cloud, on-disk signatures are now 80% smaller. This is the fastest and lightest Norton ever.

Historically, new virus detection occurs when new anti-virus databases have been updated on a client machine. This process can take from several minutes to several hours. With the new Norton Security engine, information on the latest threats is instantly available through the Norton cloud infrastructure. This dramatically improves the speed at which users are protected from the latest threats.
