Security Features
File Shield
Scans programs and files saved on your PC for malicious threats in real-time before allowing them to be opened, run, modified, or saved. If malware is detected, File Shield prevents the program or file from infecting your PC.
CyberCapture
Detects and analyzes rare, suspicious files. If you attempt to run such a file, CyberCapture locks the file from your PC and sends it to the Avast Threat Lab where it is analyzed in a safe, virtual environment.
Web Shield
Scans data that is transferred when you browse the internet in real-time to prevent malware, such as malicious scripts, from being downloaded and run on your PC.
Firewall
Monitors all network traffic between your PC and the outside world to protect you from unauthorized communication and intrusions. Firewall can prevent sensitive data from leaving your PC and can block attempted intrusions by hackers
Mail Shield
Scans your incoming and outgoing email messages in real-time for malicious content
such as viruses. Scanning only applies to messages sent or received using a mail management software (email clients such as Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird).
Real Site
Secures you against DNS (Domain Name System) hijacking. Some malicious programs can redirect you from an authentic URL to an inauthentic one to acquire sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details.
Sandbox
Allows you to browse the web or run an application in a completely isolated, safe environment. When you run an application
in Sandbox, your activity and web content is contained, which prevents damage to our PC. This is useful when you want to run suspicious or untrusted applications without risk
Behavior Shield
Monitors all processes on your PC in real-time for suspicious behavior that may indicate the presence of malicious code. Behavior Shield works by detecting and blocking suspicious files based on their similarity to other known threats, even if the files are not yet added to the virus definitions database.
Wi-Fi Inspector
Scans your network for vulnerabilities and
identifies potential security issues that open the door to threats. This feature checks the status of your network, devices connected to the network, and router settings. Wi-Fi Inspector helps you secure your network to prevent attackers from accessing it and misusing your personal data.
Security Browser Extension
Scans sites for authenticity and blocks malicious ads.
Smartscan
Scans for malware, outdated applications,
unsafe settings, and suspicious add-ons.
Remote Access Shield
Prevents Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) exploits and brute-force attacks by allowing you to choose who can remotely access our
computer and block unwanted connections.
Data Shredder
Allows you to irreversibly erase your files or
drives so that there is no way for anyone to
restore and misuse your data.
SharePoint Server Protection
Checks all files uploaded onto shared storage to ensure malware cannot compromise data.
Exchange Server Protection
Scans and filters emails at the Exchange server level – stopping potential attacks before they spread to the network.
Privacy Features
SecureLine VPN
Functions as a private tunnel through the
internet that encrypts your data and secures your connection when using public Wi-Fi connections, such as those in cafes or airports. SecureLine VPN has servers in several locations, which means you can bypass geolocation restrictions and access your favorite content while traveling
Password Protection
Prevents applications and malware from viewing, changing, or deleting passwords that are saved in your Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Avast Secure Browser browsers
Webcam Shield
Prevents applications and malware from accessing your PC’s webcam without your consent. With Webcam Shield enabled, untrusted applications cannot capture images or videos, or send the content outside of your PC to compromise your privacy
Flexible device management
Choose the management option that works best for your business.
Unmanaged (individual installation)
Ideal for small offices that do not need management capabilities. Users can adjust device settings according to their preferences and maintain complete control of their data.
Online management platform
Our online management platform, the Avast Business Hub, allows you to easily set up and install your protection, monitor devices, manage your subscriptions, and more from one place — anytime, anywhere
