Kaspersky PURE

Kaspersky PURE contains all the safety features you might expect from a modern Internet security suite such as antivirus, antispyware, anti-Trojan and a two-way firewall. As a matter of fact Kaspersky Pure includes all the features the Kaspersky Internet Security and Kaspersky AntiVirus have, plus a wide range of other security measures, that vastly increase the protection level of your system.

Antivirus & Antispyware

As mentioned before, Kaspersky PURE contains all the standard security modules such as antivirus, antispyware, anti-keylogger, anti-Trojan, anti-rootkit, anti-worm, anti-adware. The software also includes advanced protection from spam, infected emails, infected instant messages and hacker intrusions. An easy-to-configure two-way firewall is included.

Lean and Quick

Kaspersky have learned a lesson from their previous programs' biggest fails, vastly improving the speed of operation in Kaspersky PURE. The software installs in just a couple of minutes and during normal operation the impact on system's performance is unnoticeable.

Kaspersky PURE also conducts all its maintenance automatically, downloading virus database and updating itself while running in the background without disturbing your work.

Kaspersky Data Encryption

Kaspersky Pure includes the data encryption feature that allows you to encrypt selected disk contents making them unviewable to unauthorized users who don't know your password. This way you can protect important and confidential information from being used by others in an event of a theft or when your laptop is lost.

Wireless network security and monitoring

With Kaspersky PURE sustaining a good level of protection for your home network and WiFi devices is exceptionally easy. PURE includes local network monitoring tools that can identify security problems and help you to find the right solution.

Vulnerability scan

On top of the standard antivirus / antispyware protection, Kaspersky PURE can conduct an in-depth analysis of all the applications installed on your system to identity flaws and vulnerabilities in them.

Each and every installed application will be scrutinized during a special system check (it has to be run manually) and any problems found will be presented to you along with the suggestion as to how to solve them. This vulnerability scan feature, not found in any of the competition's programs, can save you a lot of trouble when using outdated versions of software, that are likely to have security flaws in them.

Backup & Restore in Kaspersky PURE

Another exciting feature in Kaspersky PURE is the backup & restore tool, similar to that found in Norton 360. With Kaspersky PURE you can select files and folders and have them backed up easily to an external FTP server or a network-connected disk.

Parental Control Tools

Kaspersky PURE also includes the long awaited Parental Control tool set, that allows you to limit the Internet usage to your kids to selected websites and at selected times. You can even restrict access to selected contacts in your kid's instant messaging friends list it you suspect they might be engaged in inappropriate activities.
