One-shot remedy
Bangalore, September 28 2015: In the traditional wisdom of Kerala-based ayurveda, Ottamooli or "single ingredient" is a cure based on a single dose -- something only seasoned practitioners dare to prescribe. The latest editions of Kaspersky's Internet security solutions include a product that seems similarly inspired:
Since most of us switch seamlessly from surfing the Internet from phone, PC, notebook or tablet , the company has come out with a product that takes on malware and Net baddies across multiple desktop and mobile platforms --PC, Mac and Android-- instead of making us buy separate products for each class of device.
"Kaspersky Internet Security -- multidevice 2016" protects privacy, money transactions, your identity and valuable photos against Net threats with one licence, one product, for up to five of your devices --PCs, Android phones and tablets. The software addresses many new threats: blocking intrusive banner advertisements, putting online buying through its own secure filter; prevent tracking of your webcam, blocking inappropriate content from reaching your kids. The one year subscription for 5 devices is Rs 2399.
Almost 99% of mobile malware is directed at the Android platform -- so it is wise to protect your mobile internet activity -- not just your desktop surfing.
