AVG Internet Security version 20.2.3116 Build 20.2.5130.571
Developer AVG Technologies is a favorite among users looking for efficient solutions to safely browse the Internet, and protect their computers against all popular forms of malware, including viruses, Trojans, worms, rootkits, dialers, adware, and spyware. AVG Internet Security is the top security software solution provided by the company, which continuously strives to deliver bigger and better antimalware features. The latest edition introduces ransomware and webcam protection.
The computer protection component handles the real-time guard that protects user computer from incoming attacks, common or complex viruses, spyware, Trojans, ransomware, spyware, or another form of malware. Meanwhile, the web and email protection module keeps the user safe from all types of dangers lurking online, such as suspicious downloads, links, or email attachments.
The hacker attack protection module features an advanced firewall that takes over user computer and replaces the Windows Firewall, to fend off network attacks attempted by malicious individuals trying to get hold of user sensitive photos, documents or passwords, and optionally hold them for ransom. This can be strengthened with the private data protection mode, which makes it possible to encrypt files with a password and hide them on the computer, as well as wipe items users do not wish to be recovered by others.
The payment protection component protects a user from online scams when the user wants to purchase products or wire money to banks. It is designed to block spam content and make sure that users are not about to give out passwords or credit card numbers to the wrong people. As far as the interface is concerned, the latest edition of AVG Internet Security has a new, more sophisticated design. Six types of scanning modes are available, once the initial scan is over: the full scan looks into all parts of the computer for malware, deep virus scan checks only areas most likely to get infected, and USB/DVD scan which verifies removable media devices.
A user can also turn to file, or folder scans to look into any suspicious files or folders, performance scan to check the PC and fix any performance-related issues or remove junk files, along with boot-time scan to run the scanner right before Windows starts, to identify any malware agents that get activated automatically at startup. It is also possible to schedule scan jobs for later.
The antivirus engine consists of multiple detection methods: signatures, polymorphic (to find new variants of known viruses, even if they now have a different behavior), heuristics (determines malware based on the program's behavior and should work when the signature method fails), real-time outbreak (adds crowd intelligence to the cloud to detect the newest threats) and CyberCapture, a new feature launched by AVG that's a cloud-based smart file scanner which isolates and analyzes suspicious items.
