ESET launches new solutions to
protect constantly-connected users

SET has announced it has released
the latest version of ESET NOD32
Antivirus, ESET Internet Security and
ESET Smart Security Premium, offering
fortified multi-layered protection, enhanced
IoT protection, product referral and a new
security report feature.
Users can rely on the best balance of speed,
detection and usability acknowledged by
multiple testing bodies to protect their
constantly-connected devices.
It is predicted that by 2025, there will be
more than 75 billion connected devices
worldwide – from smart home devices to
e-health gadgets – which poses a real threat
to cybersecurity.
As more connected devices are introduced
to everyday life, the amount of personal and
sensitive data shared increases, as does the
number of entry points into networks.
“Hackers will use this rise in the number
of internet-connected devices to their
advantage and users, therefore, cannot
afford to neglect taking security measures.
The addition of IoT protection to our home
user product suite means our customers can
be safe in the knowledge that their devices,
and the home routers they connect to,
are properly secured,” says Matej Krištofík,
Product Manager at ESET.
Built on Machine Learning and three
decades of knowledge, all ESET products
run unnoticed in the background. The key
offering provides users with comfortable and
ultra-fast scanning without impacting the
operating system or their experience.
“We built our products to provide an
advantage over native Windows protection
to show users how a multilayered approach
to cybersecurity can battle the toughest of
threats out there,” said Krištofík.
The latest version offers new features as well
as improvements to existing ones including:
• Product recommendation (referral) – a
new feature that gives all ESET users an
option to recommend our product to
family or friends. Trial users are rewarded
– one friend referral equals one more
month of protection for free.
• Security report – provides users with
an overview of what ESET‘s solution has
been actively detecting, blocking and
mitigating in the background, while users‘
computers run smoothly without any
performance lag. Users can choose from
five pre-set items based on user-given
priorities and gain insight into other
features such as Secure Data, Password
Manager, Anti-theft or Parental Control.
• Improved installation – users save up
to 40% on the installation time based on
the set up of the device. The installation
of new ESET products will now only take a
couple of seconds.
• Connected home monitor – now
allows users to test router-connected
smart devices for vulnerabilities such as
weak passwords and suggests possible
fixes. It also allows users to scan for
port vulnerabilities, known firmware
vulnerabilities, malicious domains,
weak or default router password and
malware infections.
• GDPR Compliance – all ESET products
are GDPR compliant.
ESET’s latest solutions are available now. n
Similar to previous years, to fight all these
threats users can choose from ESET NOD32
Antivirus for basic protection, ESET Internet
Security with additional layers of security
on top of the basic anti-malware solution
and ESET Smart Security Premium for users
seeking the most advanced protection
and features on the market. This includes
technologies such as password manager and
banking protection.
