When you install Total Security, you'll find that same group of six, plus two more buttons: Password Manager, and Backup and Restore. The entry-level Kaspersky Internet Security features six buttons for six major features: Scan, Database Update, Safe Money, Privacy Protection, Protection for kids, and My Kaspersky. To get started, you activate your purchase on the My Kaspersky web portal and then download the appropriate installer. Kaspersky, too, offers cross-platform support-you can use your licenses on Windows, macOS, or Android devices, and some of the components specific to Total Security support iOS as well. You pay $119.99 per year for McAfee Total Protection, but that subscription lets you install protection on all devices in your household, whether they run Windows, macOS, Android, or iOS.
Removing the limits from Kaspersky's VPN costs an extra $4.99 per month. Norton 360 Deluxe runs $99.99 for five licenses, but that also includes 50GB of online storage for your backups and five no-limit VPN licenses. These prices are often deeply discounted, it’s true, but the discount typically covers the first year only. With Bitdefender Total Security, $89.99 gets you five licenses and $99.99 raises that to 10, quite a bit less than Kaspersky’s 10-license price. Upgrading to the 10-license family plan raises that price to $149.99. A three-license subscription lists for $89.99 per year, and one for five licenses costs $99.99. It's an impressive collection.Īll these extras come at a price, however. Among the goodies that this suite adds beyond what you get with Kaspersky's entry-level suite are file encryption, a backup system, and a seriously enhanced parental control system. Others, like Kaspersky Total Security, pack in a vast number of features, covering every aspect of security. Some products include an antivirus, a firewall, a spam filter, parental controls, and little more. Beyond that, suites can differ wildly in the collection of features they offer. Because we have not found or been presented with any hard evidence of misdeeds on the part of Kaspersky, however, we are leaving our original review in place for those who wish to decide for themselves.Įvery full-scale security suite has antivirus protection at its core. However, based on the increasing censure and criticism of Kaspersky by US government agencies, foreign agencies, and informed third parties, we can no longer recommend no longer recommend Kaspersky’s products.
