There wasn't enough at the time to warrant a v26.7 beta, so they went straight into v26.8​

Version 26.8​

Released September 2026

Contact Support​

  • The link to Contact Support has been lifted to the top of the Support page for easy access
  • Contact Support links now use account-specific context, so users can get relevant help fast
  • Updated the Contact support description text for clarity

Browsing Protection​

  • Consistent naming for the Browsing Protection extension across all browser stores: removed “… by F-Secure” from tooltips and pop-ups

Improvements:​

  • Security improvements
  • Internal quality and build infrastructure improvements

Bug fixes:​

  • Fixed: User is not notified when the Chrome or Edge browser extension gets removed
  • Fixed: A rare occurrence of VPN incorrectly reporting connection to a node when not actually connected
  • Fixed: Breach guidance ("next steps") did not display for Credit Card and SSN breach types in ID Monitoring
  • Fixed: The events panel inside feature cards (e.g. Device Protection, Scam Protection) was not scrollable

Security tip
Keep recovery media reachable. Prepare recovery media before you need it and store it safely. A recovery drive and a backup of your personal files serve different purposes.
