The all-new ESET HOME Security Ultimate offers all these features and introduces a brand-new feature: VPN. This feature is also complemented by the browser extension functionality (Browser Privacy & Security), to ensure that the user’s browsing is protected. Additionally, Metadata Cleanup removes metadata from uploaded pictures to the browsers on Windows. Website Settings Review allows users to easily review and change permissions granted to websites.
“We are excited to introduce ESET HOME Security Ultimate, our most advanced AI-based cybersecurity solution for consumers to date. This product is designed to protect the modern household using artificial intelligence, human insight, and cloud technology. With the addition of our new VPN feature, we are deepening our commitment to offering comprehensive protection and significantly enhancing user privacy. This ensures safe and unrestricted digital experiences while maintaining the highest standards of data privacy and online security,” said Parvinder Walia, ESET President for Asia Pacific and Japan.
Enhancing online security
ESET’s new VPN feature offers users a confidential internet experience by establishing a private network connection guaranteeing protection while using public Wi-Fi, and enforcing a strict no-logs policy to make it more difficult to track. It encrypts users’ online activities and enables unlimited bandwidth access to geo-restricted content, including unrestricted and private access to websites in more than 60 countries worldwide. Thanks to this feature, users can securely access their home countries’ TV shows and movies while traveling or enjoy their favorite streaming services from around the world. Even more, features are available on the VPN service running on desktop, including DNS leak protection, MAC spoofing, firewall, and split tunneling. By adding a VPN on iOS, ESET is strengthening its presence on this platform, where Password Manager and ESET HOME are already established.
