avast! Pro Antivirus 8.0.1488

Advertisements

avast! Pro Antivirus gives you all the features of our comprehensive Internet Security, but without the firewall and antispam. Improved cloud-based data processing, a simplified user interface, and new Software Updater and Browser Cleanup tools make it a true end-to-end security program. Of course, its customizable features give you even more control than ever. SecureLine is a paid VPN service that both secures and anonymizes your
internet connection on public/open (unsecured) Wi-Fi.

Hybrid Cloud Technologies

Antivirus and Anti-spyware Engine
Our award-winning scanning engine protects against viruses, spyware, and other malicious agents, now with a new algorithm that is based on machine learning, which can process new-virus data in milliseconds.

Streaming, Real-time Virus Database Updates
Each virus signature comes to you in real-time via connection to the AVAST Virus Lab cloud, rather than needing to wait for a traditional virus-database update. Your database will be continuously updated with latest definitions.

File Reputation System
Now with more than a billion unique files in our cloud, avast! FileRep lets you know whether a file is safe before you open it – determined in part by how many people have the file and how new the file is. The technology is also used internally, to help the scanning engine make more intelligent decisions.
