Norton offers its antivirus for gamers at a reduced price. Its goal ? Propose tools to guard against the threats they may encounter on a daily basis, and offer tools dedicated to improving and protecting their online activity.
In a study published earlier this year, and called “State of the Internet – Gaming Respawned”, the American firm Akamai notes a 167% increase in cyberattacks against companies in the video game industry. This same report also mentions the fact that the sphere of gaming remains the preferred target of DDoS attacks with nearly 37% of all attacks observed.
Alarming figures, certainly, but which are not surprising. The various services such as Steam or Gamepass and online games represent an inexhaustible pool of data for hackers, who can very easily recover a lot of personal information about players. In recent years, we have also seen several major player profile leaks, as was the case with Roblox earlier this year.
In order to respond to this growing problem, Norton has decided to launch an offer dedicated to the player, and capable of responding to the problems related to this activity.
The Norton 360 Gamers offer in brief:
Norton Go, a solution to optimize the performance of your PC games; full-screen mode detection to minimize in-game notifications; monitoring and protection of your data (SafeCam, Dark Web Monitoring, anti-doxxing protection); 50 GB of cloud storage; protection of 3 devices (PC, Mac, smartphone or tablet); VPN and password manager included.
Norton currently offers its annual gamer offer at 39.99 euros. Beyond the first year, each renewal will cost you 89.99 euros per year.
Norton 360 for Gamers: an antivirus designed by gamers, for gamers
With Norton 360 For Gamers, Norton has decided to go a step further by offering features that go beyond simple protection, and offer a complete solution capable of supporting gamers throughout their activity, even to optimise. By opting for this solution, you will be able to benefit from:
Dark Web monitoring to verify that your personal information (passwords, accounts, personal data) is not publicly available; SafeCam technology for PC, which alerts you if ever a hacker tries to take control of your webcam, and can help you counter these attacks; full-screen mode detection, which suspends innocuous security alerts so as not to interrupt your gaming sessions; Norton Game Optimizer, capable of boosting the performance of your PC by optimizing the settings of the games installed on your machine or by closing resource-intensive programs running in the background.
Protection that goes beyond gaming
Beyond the features designed to respond to the problems of players, this subscription provides you with a complete protection ecosystem, which essentially stands out thanks to two elements:
a complete VPN: if a VPN alone does not make it possible to effectively fight against the threats present online, it is nevertheless a particularly effective tool in terms of cybersecurity. By masking, or relocating your IP address, you can easily protect your identity and your data, and avoid harmful practices such as DDOS attacks; a secure password manager: again, this is an extremely useful tool to ensure your privacy is protected. Thanks to this manager, you will be able to create and store complex and secure passwords for your accounts, whether for the game or in your everyday life.
Last advantage of this formula, the presence of a parental control system allowing to limit the playing time or the access to certain applications on computer, telephone or tablet.
