Kaspersky Internet Security – The best there is.,
Kaspersky Internet Security (K.I.S) has yet again proved itself as a dominant player in the security market with its 2013 version. Almost any internet security comes with a 2 way Firewall, anti-spam and anti-identity theft tools. Tools which are not usually included in the anti-virus suites of any company. Hence I always suggest people to buy Internet Security suites and not just the anti-virus, regardless of the security company in question. Anyway, here are some points as to why I like KIS
1) Often security softwares tend to be unnecessarily complicated, causing the users to not use most of the features that the software comes with. Thankfully, Kaspersky has a user friendly interface which is usable to people of almost any technical level. The software notifies you in a very non-obtrusive way when a potential threat is detected. Different features in the software such as Network monitoring, handling quarantine, scanning, updating, etc. is very easy.
2) The drawback of having any anti-virus program is that it bogs down your processor and ram, and seems intrusive in most actions you might take. KIS on the other hand is very light on the system, using under 5mb of ram in the background, which is astoundingly low.
3) I have used many paid and free internet security solutions out there. McAfee, Norton, AVG amongst others. And time and again I see that KIS is the most successful in blocking worms, trojans and viruses. Quite savvy with technology, I very rarely present myself to a vulnerable situation. But even then, my computer does come in contact with infected files somehow or the other (flash drives usually). But KIS has kept me safe every single file.
4) Safe Money – This is one of the killer features of Kaspersky. I use online commerce and banking services alot. Hence that makes me paranoid about wanting to stay protected. And KIS has helped me easy that paranoia to a large extent with this feature. Despite encryption and other means, commerce online is still faced with vulnerabilities in the network and browser. So when you visit the login page of the desired commerce website (like ebay, paypal or your bank website) KIS opens a new protected instance of your browser, and checks the URL and certificate of the website. This is especially important as scammers often use legitimate looking spoofs of websites and grab hold of the customer’s info once they enter it (this is called phishing. This is a great feature!
5) Finally KIS installs nifty little things like a virtual keyboard and anti spam banner on your browsers. These again help thwart spurious websites and keyloggers.
6) KIS also comes with highly customizable parental control features, which help protect and control the computer use of your child.
All in all I LOVE Kaspersky Internet Security 2013 and would recommend to anyone to keep their computers safe and protected in a usable and efficient manner. Remember, better safe than sorry.
