Comprehensive malware protection across multiple devices

Norton 360 Premium is an anti-virus and anti-malware software solution designed to protect your devices from security threats, manage parental control of online activities, and provide secure cloud storage. Norton has been providing antivirus protection for home computers and mobile devices for decades, regularly adding features to address potential threats as they emerge.

Unlike Norton AntiVirus Plus, Norton 360 Premium offers enhanced features similar to those offered by McAfee LiveSafe and Avast Premium Security, including support for additional devices, increased cloud storage, and the use of Secure VPN for multiple PCs, Macs, smartphones, or tablets. For families, this means device protection and online privacy for both children and parents.

How does Norton 360 Premium provide protection?

Using a multi-layered approach, Norton 360 Premium protects multiple devices in several ways. With real-time threat protection, 360 Premium combats both existing and emerging malware threats to protect your private and personal information online. The secure VPN allows you to browse anonymously while keeping information like bank details and passwords private. Similarly, Norton 360 Premium’s password manager makes it easy to store and manage your sensitive information like passwords and credit card information safely.

Behind the scenes, Norton 360 Premium includes Dark Web Monitoring. If your private or personal information ends up on the Dark Web – an underground part of the web where cybercriminals sell personal information – you’ll be notified if it’s found. Privacy Monitor works in a similar way and can scan popular data broker sites for your personal information so you can request to opt-out.

How many devices can Norton 360 Premium protect?

Norton 360 Premium can protect up to 10 different devices, including PCs, Macs, smartphones, and tablets – the most devices among all Norton AntiVirus products – making it a useful security solution for the whole family. It also allows the same number of devices to use Norton’s Secure VPN, which helps to reduce the vulnerability of your device when using public Wi-Fi by offering encryption for online privacy.

Because of the increased number of devices that can be used with a subscription, Norton 360 Premium also increases cloud backup storage to 100GB, which helps prevent the loss of photos and files due to hard drive failures or attacks.

Can parents use Norton 360 Premium to monitor their kids’ activity?

Norton 360 Premium is perfect for the whole family in part because of the large number of desktop and mobile devices it supports and protects. But it’s also a family-friendly software solution thanks to the comprehensive parental controls that allow parents to monitor and protect their child’s online activity and device. Norton 360 Premium lets kids to connect to the online world safely and securely by giving parents tools to see what videos they watch, which websites they visit, which apps they download, and more.

With the School Time feature, parents can also manage their child’s remote learning environment to ensure the time that should be focused on education is distraction-free.

Is Norton 360 Premium free to use?

As its name suggests, Norton 360 Premium is not free but rather a premium subscription-based anti-virus and anti-malware software solution. Unlike software that requires a one-time payment, Norton 360 Premium and other Norton service product subscriptions are billed annually from the date on which you activate your service.

Norton offers a tiered product range that includes a number of subscription rate price points. With each new tier, Norton offers additional features and more comprehensive protection for your devices. Norton AntiVirus Plus and Norton 360 Deluxe are tiered below Norton 360 Premium, while Norton 360 with Lifelock Select is the tier above 360 Premium and has the added benefit of an optional monthly subscription plan rather than the standard annual plan.

A comprehensive online security solution

For those looking for anti-virus and anti-malware software with support for multiple devices and the whole family, Norton 360 Premium offers numerous features designed to simultaneously protect every user and every device. Especially for those with school-aged children, Norton 360 Premium ensures they can browse and learn safely and equips parents with the tools necessary to monitor activity and keep their children’s attention focused on the appropriate content.
