Norton has released Norton Secure Browser. Just as a passport is essential for travel, web browsers are essential for exploring the internet, and serve as the gateway to websites, information, and experiences. However, they are also superhighways of personal information for cybercriminals to exploit, and the dream tool for advertisers to track online activity and collect insights into the views, motivations and interests of digital citizens, and appeal to them.

Between April and June this year, Norton blocked more than 180 million web-related threats globally, the equivalent of approximately two million attacks per day or more attacks in three months than there are people in the United Kingdom and Germany combined. Features and benefits of Norton Secure Browser include: Security & Privacy Center: helps people quickly manage their online safety and privacy by consolidating security and privacy tools and features in a simple, easy-to-use dashboard. Privacy Guard: blocks ads to improve the browsing experience and includes antitracking which helps to keep personal searches, interests, and interactions private.

Web Shield: blocks malicious websites and phishing attempts while browsing and prevents people from downloading potentially malicious content, that can try to infect their device. Password Manager: helps prevent apps and malware from viewing, changing, or deleting saved passwords, and allows to log into online accounts with a single click. Norton Safe Search: extends online security to search results.

The Norton search engine flags safe and potentially dangerous results so know if a webpage is safe. Norton Secure Browser is available for Windows PC and Mac, with additional platform support coming soon.
