Review and testing of the comprehensive antivirus Kaspersky Internet Security (2017) for protecting computers and mobile devices. Main features, advantages and disadvantages of an antivirus solution

Users look towards comprehensive antivirus solutions because they want a well-integrated and balanced product. Kaspersky Internet Security (2017) is just such a solution that combines anti-virus protection, firewall, spam filter, parental control and protection against phishing. The product comes with several useful bonus tools, all of which are of high quality and effectiveness. Kaspersky Internet Security is by far the winner.

A standard annual subscription for 3 devices will cost 1990 rubles, and protection of 5 devices will cost 3900 rubles. Each individual license can be used on a Windows or Mac computer, or on an Android mobile device. However, the most functional is the Windows version.

As in the standalone antivirus, the main window of the complex antivirus has undergone minor changes compared to previous versions. In the old version, the icons for quick access to the Check, Update, Safe Money and Parental Control functions were located in one row. In the new version of the antivirus, the main window contains 6 icons for Check, Database Update, Safe Money, Privacy Protection, Parental Control and Protection for All Devices. As usual, the large green banner at the top of the window turns red when a problem is detected. Clicking the "Details" button opens a list of all problems with the possibility of their elimination.

The anti-virus protection in this complex anti-virus is no different from the technology used in Kaspersky Anti-Virus (2017), so we will briefly list the main characteristics of protection.

Kaspersky is no longer certified by ICSA Labs or West Coast Labs, but is getting fantastic results from five independent antivirus labs that PCMag monitors. The product performed perfectly on three criteria in the AV-Test. In five tests by AV-Comparatives, Kaspersky's Comprehensive Antivirus scored the highest rating.

Simon Edwards Labs (SE Labs) has certified Kaspersky with the best AAA rating. Kaspersky has also done well in the MRG-Effitas test series, in which many other products have frankly failed. The cumulative result of laboratory tests of Kaspersky is 9.9 points out of 10 possible.

In PCMag's malware blocking tests, Kaspersky performed worse, earning only 8.4 points out of 10. The highest score among antiviruses tested against an identical collection of threats belongs to Webroot SecureAnywhere Internet Security Plus (2016), which e Kaspersky Internet Security 2017, 3 Devices +1 Free arned a maximum of 10 points. The Malicious Download Blocking Test measures the effectiveness of countering sites with malicious content. Kaspersky scored 64 percent detection rate, which is not comparable to the 99 percent indicator of Avira Antivirus Pro 2016. Note that when labs endlessly praise a product, their opinion can be trusted. Laboratories have powerful resources and capabilities, and their own amateur testing is severely limited.

Kaspersky Internet Security (2017) was one of the few products to outperform Symantec Norton Security Premium in the anti-phishing test. The product performed better in this test and blocked more fraudulent resources than other tested products.

The standalone antivirus and the end-to-end solution share several additional tools in common. The on-screen keyboard allows you to enter passwords without the risk of data interception by keyloggers, even hardware ones. Kaspersky Rescue Disk rescue media allows you to clean your computer of persistent threats that prevent the system from booting. Built-in scanners check system areas that can be optimized, security settings, and privacy settings. Kaspersky Anti-Virus includes a vulnerability scanner, but Kaspersky Internet Security has more advanced capabilities to handle potential security vulnerabilities.

Antivirus and firewall are the two main components of most comprehensive antivirus software. In some systems, the firewall can display an infinite number of pop-up alerts with incomprehensible prompts that can confuse an inexperienced user and force him to make bad decisions. Fortunately, Kaspersky is not one of those products. It performs software control on its own using intelligent algorithms. For well-known programs, the product automatically configures the necessary permissions to access the network and the Internet. Known malware is sent directly to
