Key Features – avast! Pro Antivirus
Hybrid Cloud Technologies
new! STREAMING, REAL-TIME VIRUS DATABASE UPDATES
Now you get each virus signature sent to you in
real-time via a connection to the
AVAST Virus Lab cloud, rather than needing to
wait for a traditional database
update. Your database will be continuously
updated with the latest defnitions.
new! FILE REPUTATION SYSTEM
FileRep lets you know whether a fle is safe
before you open it – determined in
part by how many people have the fle and how new
the fle is. Te technology is
also used internally, to help the scanning engine
make more intelligent decisions.
New Protective Features
improved! AUTOSANDBOX
Suspicious programs are now automatically placed
inside the avast! Sandbox.
When the program fnishes, a comprehensive report
is generated and, based on the
program’s behavior, you are given a
recommendation on how to treat it in the future.
improved! BROWSER SANDBOXING
Enabled by a single click of the mouse, it allows
you to completely isolate the
browser from the rest of the system – even if the
browser gets hijacked, your
system stays clean.
improved! WEBREP
Te version 7 WebRep browser plugins provide
greater protection against phishing
sites, including heuristics detection of new
phishing sites. It can also detect fake/
planted SSL certifcates, preventing
man-in-the-middle attacks against https sites.
Browser support has been extended to Apple™
Safari™.
improved! SAFEZONE™
Available only in Pro Antivirus and Internet
Security, our SafeZone™, your
ultimate clean and secure window for fnancial
transactions, now auto-prompts
you move to the SafeZone from your regular
browser.
Greater Usability
new! AVAST MANAGEMENT PORTAL
Your web-based AVAST Account portal is your
personal directory for all your
avast! related data. It allows you to track all
your avast! installations, complete
with their health data, status information, and
useful statistics. And it’s
multiplatform, allowing you to manage you avast!
installations on both Windows
and Mac computers, as well as Android devices.
new! REMOTE ASSISTANCE
Our new Remote Assistance tool lets you initiate
remote support from any
‘geek’ among your friends or family who agrees to
help. Initiated by you, it routes
through AVAST’s servers, bypasses frewalls, and
can be terminated by you at
any time. You will never have to ask for help
over the phone again.
new! CUSTOMIZABLE INSTALLATION
Your avast! software can now be installed in
Compatibility Mode, meaning that
it will run perfectly along with your other
antivirus software to act as a second
line of defense. And even if you install avast!
in normal mode, you are given the
possibility to install just the components you
really need.
