but you have to enable it, it is not on by default.
Yeah, you'd need to install Norton Safe Web extension and checkbox Banking Protection with Safe Web Settings. Safe Web Settings > Signed in as: survives browser and machine cycles.
FAQ: Online Banking Protection

It used to be a good AV product and I would recommend buying it. But the recent update of "Norton Crypto" makes me disappointed at Norton.

Compared with Kaspersky, Norton is better at:
  • Lighter impact on system performance.
  • Strong Firewall and IPS feature
  • Cloud backup included
Compared with Norton, Kaspersky is better at:
  • Higher detection ratio, faster response to emerging threats and significantly lower False Positive ratio
  • Strong behavior blocker with rollback feature, meaning Kaspersky can restore what has been encrypted by ransomware. Norton's SONAR requires network connection and does not have file rollback feature, and it is not as strong as Kaspersky's System Watcher
