This post is brought to you in a paid partnership with Webroot.
The holidays are usually a time for relaxation, but for cybercriminals they are the busiest time of the year. Between online shopping, travel bookings, and kids downloading new games on new devices, our digital footprints expand tremendously in December. It’s the perfect time to pause and assess whether you are actually protected.
Currently, Webroot is running a holiday promotion 50% discount on Webroot Total Protection. Plans start at just $89.99/year and give you a comprehensive security suite at half the usual price.
More than just antivirus
I remember when “cybersecurity” simply meant installing an antivirus and hoping for the best. Reality today is much more complex. We deal with identity theft, phishing scams and ransomware. For this reason Webroot Total Protection is such a compelling package: it stops guessing what you need and bundles everything together.
The antivirus engine itself is impressive and ranks first in performance compared to major competitors. It performs scans six times faster and takes up significantly less space than the bloatware many of us are used to. However, the real value lies in the additional layers of security.
Identity and privacy included
With this subscription you not only protect your hardware; They protect your identity. The plan includes dark web monitoring for up to 10 identities, financial monitoring, and even a $1 million fraud cost reimbursement policy.
If you’re traveling on vacation, the included VPN for up to 10 devices is essential to protect your data on WiFi at the airport or hotel. Additionally, the package includes unlimited cloud backup, ensuring your vacation photos and important files are protected from accidental deletion or ransomware attacks.
The end result
Cybersecurity is one of those things you don’t think about until it’s too late. With a 50% discount for new customers, Webroot offers a cost-effective way to lock down your entire digital life – from your PC to your identity – before the start of the new year.
