Feel great with our best protection everavast! Premier goes beyond our already comprehensive Internet Security to offer our new Data Shredder, for very permanently deleting sensitive data from the hard drive; remote capability improvements that – at the request of our users – allow automatic connection to enabled friend/family devices; and a new Software Updater feature that can proactively update all the software you’re using that is outdated and/or needing a security patch. |
Never worry about unpatched or outdated apps againUnique to avast! Premier, an automatic version of our new Software Updater can be set to keep all your programs up-to-date and patched, keeping you away from some of the biggest known security vulnerabilities. |
Keep everything at your fingertipsEver need a file at work that you forgot and left at home? AccessAnywhere in avast! Premier lets you connect to your PC from remote locations. |
Leave no traces on your hard driveIf you ever want to sell or give away an old PC, this is the best way to ensure that your sensitive data does not go with it. Typically, data is not totally deleted, but only references to it. Our Data Shredder in avast! Premier erases files permanently, so that they cannot be restored via hardware or software methods. Includes three methods for doing this: random overwrite, DoD, and Gutmann method. |
Shop and bank online without worrySafeZone™ is a private and isolated virtual window on your desktop, for securing your sensitive financial transactions online. Perfect for auction sites, buying tickets, booking hotels or airlines, online gaming, or any sort of monetary transfer. |
Surf and socialize without worrySandbox lets you surf the web and run even risky programs virtually, outside your PC. And our Web, IM, and P2P shields ensure your safety on social networks (e.g. Facebook or Twitter) and online dating sites, IM chats (e.g. Skype or ICQ), or peer-to-peer file-sharing sites. |
Benefit from real-time protectionHybrid cloud technology streams your virus database updates to your PC in real-time, so your avast! software has all virus definitions as soon as they are known to our Virus Lab. |
Know what’s coming before you clickOur cloud-based FileRep feature keeps reputation data on millions of files, so we can warn you of a file’s reputation before you open it. |
Manage avast! on all your devicesYour AVAST Account portal is your personal directory for all your avast! related data, for all your desktop and mobile devices. Each month, we also prepare for you a Security Report that shows an overview of the most significant details (e.g. number of infected sites blocked). |
