There are another 2 AI based antivirus and antimalware software, Cylance and webroot.

They are considered as industry leading company that provide anti-virus and anti-malware software but more expensive compare to normal anti-virus software that only provide signature based protection that cannot block zero day threats.

Worth to invest if you have budget and your company data is very valuable.

Kaspersky and many others brand still based on old technology that use virus database to determine it is a virus or not. System is heavy loaded for scanning to check each single file.

AI antivirus is the future, so far I know only sophos, cylance and Webroot provide this. They are light weight and determine it is a virus or not by its behaviour which is more efficient from my point of view.

I always thought all antivirus are the same until I attend a security seminar.

One thing for sure, based on value of ur data to secure it. Don’t over invest but also should invest certain amount of money for your valuable files.

1 year price is usd50*70%= usd35
2 years price is 2*usd50*70%= usd70, but it give additional 10% discount, thus the final price is usd70*90% which is USD63. Or RM286 is for 2 years for 10 devices.

Actually if u have creadit card, try to pay in usd, credit card bank conversion rate from usd to MYR normally better that website conversion rate.

Appreciated u can use my purchase link to buy, it help u to save 30% too.

Hey there, sorry to ask. After I installed it, my keyboard's gone wonky.

Is there any way to disable it? (its something about keyboard encryption, I believe).
