1. ESET Smart Security
ESET Smart Security represents a new approach to truly integrated computer security. The most recent version of
the ThreatSense® scanning engine, combined with our custom Personal firewall and Antispam modules, utilizes
speed and precision to keep your computer safe. The result is an intelligent system that is constantly on alert for
attacks and malicious software that might endanger your computer.
ESET Smart Security is a complete security solution that combines maximum protection and a minimal system
footprint. Our advanced technologies use artificial intelligence to prevent infiltration by viruses, spyware, trojan
horses, worms, adware, rootkits, and other threats without hindering system performance or disrupting your
computer.
Features and benefits
Antivirus and antispyware
Proactively detects and cleans more known and unknown viruses, worms,
trojans and rootkits. Advanced heuristics technology flags even never-
before-seen malware, protecting you from unknown threats and neutralizing
them before they can do any harm. Web access protection and Anti-Phishing
works by monitoring communication between web browsers and remote
servers (including SSL). Email client protection provides control of email
communication received through the POP3(S) and IMAP(S) protocols.
Regular updates
Regularly updating virus signature database and program modules is the best
method for ensuring the maximum level of security on your computer.
ESET Live Grid
(Cloud-powered Reputation)
You can check the reputation of running processes and files directly from
ESET Smart Security.
Device control
Automatically scans all USB flash drives, memory cards and CDs/DVDs. Blocks
removable media based on type of media, manufacturer, size and other
attributes.
HIPS functionality
You can customize the behavior of the system in greater detail; specify rules
for the system registry, active processes and programs, and fine-tune your
security posture.
Gamer mode
Postpones all pop-up windows, updates or other system-intensive activities
to conserve system resources for gaming or other full-screen activities.
Features in ESET Smart Security
Parental control
Protects your family from potentially offensive web content by blocking
various website categories.
Intelligent Firewall
Firewall module prevents unauthorized users from accessing your computer
and taking advantage of your personal data.
ESET Antispam
Spam represents up to 80 percent of all email communication. Antispam
protection serves to protect against this problem.
ESET Anti-Theft
ESET Anti-Theft expands user-level security in the case of a lost or stolen
computer. Once users install ESET Smart Security and ESET Anti-Theft, their
device will be listed in the web interface. The web interface allows users to
manage their ESET Anti-Theft configuration and perform actions such as
switching computers to the missing state.
A license needs to be active in order for features of ESET Smart Security to be operational. It is recommended that
you renew your license several weeks before the license for ESET Smart Security expires.
