Today’s computer security companies are fully aware of the importance of their projects, so they do not stop improving them. This is the case of one of the most popular in the sector, Kaspersky , which has just launched the new version of its security solution.
And it is that with the constant use that we make of the Internet at this time, external attacks have multiplied in recent years. That’s why companies focused on protecting our computers and data are more attentive than ever to the latest malicious trends. This is something they achieve based on updates and new versions of their solutions, as is the case at hand now.
We tell you all this because just a few hours ago the firm’s new line of Kaspersky 2021 products was unveiled. This has been achieved thanks to the launch of the security-focused packages Kaspersky Internet Security 2021, Kaspersky Total Security 2021 and Kaspersky Security Cloud 2021 Free. Well, initially we will tell you that this latest release is a new package for companies’ line of cloud-based security products.
What’s new in Kaspersky 2021 family
To say that among the most outstanding news that we can talk about here, we find important improvements in its detection tool. This is integrated into Internet Security and Total Security and becomes more effective than ever. In the same way, we can squeeze this out in the free version of Kaspersky Password Manager . On the other hand, it is worth noting that Cloud Security users now also get automatic checks on potentially compromised online accounts.
And how could it be otherwise, we make a special mention of the VPN functionality of the company that has just arrived. In addition, it has a major revision of the user interface and a more efficient private connection system.
Of course, the most outstanding feature that we are going to find in the 2021 family of Kaspersky 2021, is the protection called Stalkerware for Windows PCs. Saying that this malicious code detection improvement now has a new warning message. This not only alerts the user as such, but provides them with a means to remove, ignore or add entries to a whitelist.
The cloud, an increasingly important element in security
We should also talk about Security Cloud’s account verification feature as it has been updated. In this way, it is now able to scan the email addresses sent to see if they are compromised by some hack on the Internet. To all this we can add the arrival of the free version of Kaspersky’s password manager. To say that this is something that reaches the Internet Security suite, in addition to the antivirus. But of course, the free version only allows you to encrypt up to 15 entries as a limit.
The firm has also updated its free version in the cloud offering basic anti-malware protection on all devices. It also adds access to the free versions of Kaspersky Password Manager and Kaspersky Secure VPN. In fact, it is in this last section, in the VPN , where we see the biggest changes.
On the one hand, the application interface has been changed to make it easier to use. So we can see at a glance if it is enabled or not, in addition to changing countries more quickly. At the same time it is faster in the connection process, with easier access to the server for the currently selected country.
