Kaspersky Lab has announced the newest version of its premier product for consumer PC protection – Kaspersky PURE 3.0 Total Security, which offers everything users need in a computer security suite, including online banking security, password management, and online backup, Kaspersky PURE 3.0 offers maximum protection for users to secure their online activities and digital assets across their home network of PCs.
Features of Kaspersky PURE 3.0
Award-winning protection
Online shopping, banking, and social networking can leave your PC vulnerable to viruses – and your digital identity & finances exposed to criminal attacks. Kaspersky’s innovative hybrid protection approach combines powerful security technologies running on your PC and the real-time efficiency of the cloud. As a result, Kaspersky PURE 3.0 Total Security delivers a faster, more effective response to today’s ever-evolving threats.[more…]
Safe Money
Using new Safe Money technology, Kaspersky PURE 3.0 verifies that all websites requiring banking, payment, or shopping information are genuine, so users aren’t tricked into entering personal information onto a fake website. By using security certificates and checking website reputation, Safe Money verifies the sites’ authenticity, and then automatically launches a secure web browser to offer extra protection from online malware. The Secure Keyboard mode will activate automatically when someone opens a bank or payment website or inserts a password on any web page, which ensures login information isn’t recorded by keylogging software.
Online Password Manager
Kaspersky Lab’s online password vault allows users to store all their login information in a single, secure vault, that can be synced across multiple PCs, instead of carrying a list of passwords on a piece of paper, or using the same details for every login. If users are looking to create the most secure passwords they can, the Kaspersky Password Manager will generate an incredibly sophisticated password so they don’t have to, and further save it to the cloud, so memorizing it won’t be necessary.
Online Backup
Kaspersky PURE 3.0 offers an integrated online backup feature, allowing users to automatically back up their files online via a preliminarily created account on Dropbox service. Once the files have been backed up, users will be able to access the files from any computer with an Internet connection.
Parental Controls
With Kaspersky PURE’s parental controls, users will know their children are completely protected with Kaspersky Lab’s premier security features and filters. Parents can block access to inappropriate websites, set Internet usage time limits, and prevent valuable information from being shared via Facebook and Twitter, such as addresses or credit card numbers. If a child has their own computer, parents can manage and monitor all these Parental Control settings from their own computer via the central management tool.
To round out the features included in Kaspersky PURE 3.0, users are able to conveniently manage the security of multiple PCs from one, central computer. Use the PC clean-up tools to keep all of the systems linked to PURE running smoothly, or run virus scans, updates and backups all from one computer.
Automatic Exploit Prevention
Kaspersky Lab’s new Automatic Exploit Prevention technology anticipates and blocks these types of attacks by watching over the programs installed on the PC and monitoring them for abnormal behavior. If the program tries to perform unusual or unauthorized activities, this technology blocks the potentially malicious action.
Pricing and Availability
Kaspersky PURE 3.0 is available for purchase now on Kaspersky Lab’s online store and in software stores. Current Kaspersky PURE and Kaspersky PURE 2.0 customers may upgrade free of charge to Kaspersky PURE 3.0 for the remainder of their existing license period.
