Version 17.7.3032 promises the brand’s best PC and privacy protection yet, with advanced anti-ransomware and new webcam protection.
Shield yourself against hacker attacks, scan for malware and avoid fake websites. Whether it’s banking, browsing, shopping — AVG Internet Security-Unlimited offers extra protection for your online life.
AVG Internet Security – Unlimited protects you both online and offline using next-generation machine learning and artificial intelligence to stop viruses, ransomware, spyware, and other malware in real-time. With AVG Internet Security – Unlimited, you can:
- Secure your PC: With real-time protection and advanced machine learning, AVG keeps your computer free of viruses, spyware, ransomware, rootkits, Trojans, and other nasty malware. Its Enhanced Firewall also keeps hackers off your PC.
- Surf and email safer: Internet Security – Unlimited blocks unsafe links, downloads, spam, and email attachments so you can enjoy your online life without worries. It even helps you avoid fake copycat websites so you don’t unintentionally give thieves your passwords, credit card numbers, or other personal info. Clever!
- Get advanced ransomware protection: Wall off your personal photos, documents, and files from malicious encryption, and have total control over which apps can change or delete your files.
- Stop webcam spying: Keep voyeurs out of your home — and children’s bedrooms — by allowing only trusted apps to use your webcam and being warned when anything suspicious tries to access your camera.
- Stay up-to-date: Security updates and new features are pushed to you automatically, so you never need to manually update your AVG software to stay protected from the latest threats.
- Protect the whole family: Easily protect your whole family, no matter how many devices anyone has or what kind they are. Better still, you can do all this from a single dashboard, from anywhere in the world.
Another great feature of the software, is that anytime a user encounters an unknown threat, AVG quickly analyses it, creates a cure, and then pushes it out to every one of its millions of users so everyone is better protected. You don’t have to lift a finger!
New features for version 17.7.3032 include:
- New interface makes it easier than ever to monitor all your layers of protection.
- New Ransomware Protection secures personal folders with an extra layer of ransomware protection.
- New Webcam Protection prevents voyeurs from watching you via your webcam.
- New “Scan Computer” now quickly scans for malware, unwanted toolbars and browser extensions, and PC performance problems in a single click.
- New “Deep Scan” option lets you specifically target hidden threats with a longer, more intensive scan of your entire computer.
Plus there’s a range of improvements to existing features, including improved identification of never-before-seen threats by sending potential malware to our servers for deeper analysis; improved Anti-Phishing prevents you from falling victim to scams and fake sites (no browser extension needed); and improved threat detections are now more visible and more informative about threats.
