Kaspersky Total Security – detailed description

Kaspersky Total Security bietet Benutzertools zum Schutz der Privatsphäre, einschließlich Online-Tracking-Blockierung, VPN-Sicherung, Kindersicherung und vieles mehr. Es verfügt auch über Online-Banking-Sicherheitsfunktionen, die Benutzer während finanzieller Transaktionen schützen und ihre Sicherheit und Privatsphäre gewährleisten.

It protects users against phishing attempts. This means they are protected from scammers creating fake websites that closely resemble the originals to steal confidential information. It uses mechanisms to analyze website content and detects and blocks suspicious ones to minimize the risk of personal or financial data theft.

The Kaspersky Total Security software analyzes Wi-Fi networks to which the device is connected to detect potential threats such as insecure access points or Man-in-the-Middle attacks. The latter are cyberattacks where communication between at least two devices like computers, smartphones, routers, or servers is intercepted. In such cases, hackers attempt to intercept and control data transmitted between these carriers without the knowledge and consent of their owners.

It also has a VPN feature that provides an encrypted internet connection, protecting users from surveillance and threats associated with public connections. This software also provides access to the password manager, a tool for securely storing and generating strong passwords for various online services.

In the described antivirus software, there is also no shortage of features for scanning files and folders. Analyzing content for the presence of suspicious strings or code is a signal for Kaspersky Total Security 2022 to indicate threats. If it detects them, it takes immediate action to eliminate them. Scanning can be started automatically or manually.

The firewall controls incoming and outgoing traffic based on specific rules (e.g., IP addresses or ports). It safeguards access to the system or network and blocks external attack attempts. It protects bank account numbers or credit card data from theft or misuse by third parties.

The described antivirus software also allows for the activation of the Gaming and Movie mode. This mode is designed for users who want to play games or watch movies without being disturbed by notifications or updates. Certain protection features like real-time scanning are temporarily disabled. This ensures that the use of applications requiring significant system resources is not affected.

At the same time, the Gaming and Movie mode continues to provide continuous protection of the system against network threats such as phishing attacks, network hacking attempts, or efforts to exploit vulnerabilities in the system. It can be activated automatically when an active gaming or movie application is detected or manually selected through the antivirus software's user interface.

Parental control in Kaspersky Total Security allows blocking access to inappropriate websites for children and limiting screen time. It is available on various platforms such as Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS, enabling the protection of different devices with a single account.
