Norton 360

I haven’t used Norton for many years but was offered a review copy of Norton 360 so thought it would be interesting to try out.

Of course it wasn’t a copy, as in the old days. It’s all cloud based so all you do is go to the Norton website and enter in a code. I had Norton 360 premium which provides protection for up to five devices.

This aspect was useful as you can install it on your laptop and them just send a link to your other devices to install it there also. Very simple and easy.

You don’t have to choose all the features, so I declined to have it be the default search engine.

Did an initial scan of my laptop and three vulnerabilities found and fixed which was good. And then after that it just sat in the background, as you want it to.

The VPN capability is also very useful in numerous scenarios.

So overall very easy to install and use, and some welcome extra protection.
