Battle Best Internet Security With Good Privacy And Protection

[kididoh821]

what is your choice and why right now my current protection(Norton) about to expire i want to choose one with strong privacy protection(data collection)and acceptable protection

I'd recommend Bitdefender. It offers robust security features, excellent privacy protection, and minimal data collection. It consistently ranks high in independent lab tests for its security and performance. Plus, it comes with a VPN for added privacy.

Why did you choose those 4? Personally I wouldn't use any of them, there are better choices.

 

[Jonny Quest]

Same thing I was thinking, as there wasn't an option to add our prefrence.

From those 4 probably G-Data (German, has to comply with German and EU privacy laws).

The "best" for security are Bitdefender, Kaspersky and Microsoft (helped by DefenderUI or ConfigureDefender).
According to our tester @Shadowra :

Only AVs with a good Behavior Blocker or detection engine, such as Kaspersky, Bitdefender or Microsoft Defender

App Review - McAfee Total Protection 2024

McAfee is a well-known American company, often competing with Norton. McAfee is also often pre-installed on store-bought computers. In the past, McAfee often had a bad reputation for being slow, inefficient and displaying alerts to charge for a license... For this 2024 version, McAfee is making...

Personally I am using Microsoft.

I wouldn't choose any of them. I always recommend either Kaspersky, ESET, F-Secure or Bitdefender. Just keep in mind, Bitdefender is heavier than the other options I've mentioned.

dont like microsoft defender i want better suite i don't like add tons of software to make msd completed.i prefer complete suite with no need of additional stuff.

loooove Vipre, phishing protection via Outlook has been great from all the workstations I've seen. I think they are still using BitDefender engine for detections very happy for the last few years. Strong firewall protection also. In a vacuum I' d probably go with traffic light.

 

[Trident]

From these 4 Vipre is the best. It is almost a full rebrand of Bitdefender which makes one wonder, why not Bitdefender. It’s got exploit shield and firewall that are developed by Vipre.

Antivirus by PIA not even sure what’s that.

Private Internet Access? The VPN company maybe?

Yeah, since when have they got an AV and what is it based on? Never heard of it. Another Avira probably

 

[Sandbox Breaker]

Kaspersky or Checkpoint because of their compliance levels in privacy.

If you don't want to choose what I've highlighted, you can go to GData.
It has 2 engines and its unknown malware blocker is very good (BEAST) and has an anti-ransomware shield called DeepRay.
It's just a bit memory-hungry :/

VIPRE, I haven't seen it for about 1 year. I had fond memories of it.

I really like Trend Micro. Much less its viral base which is rather weak...
Its Behavior Blocker is good, but not on script-type malware.

The PIA antivirus, on the other hand, I have no opinion because I don't know it at all.

And if I have to give a personal opinion, I'd say F-Secure It's very good and has an excellent privacy policy.

g-data is ok with me too also good privacy policy too after that vipre but its not have any clear info on privacy policy section

 

[misterman2100]

I will second F-Secure. Relatively fast, reliable, and really good security and privacy to boot. (Well, whatever accounts for privacy nowadays, right?)

And with F-Secure migrating to 64-bit (19.4), it's very light on system resources.
