Over time Norton required less of a load, and this newest version seemed even lighter on my system than the last. In its earlier days, Norton security products would bog down your system by using too many system resources, but it's been years since that's been the case.

Those who like to customize their security will want to go to the Advanced section of the Security category (found by clicking on that down arrow), where you can turn on or off individual security modules, such as the firewall, email protection, browser protection and others.ДЇinally, the Identity category includes the Identity Safe password manager Password Generator Safe Web, which checks websites to make sure they're safe (this is turned on by default) and an anti-phishing feature (also turned on by default). For example, under Performance there's a disk optimizer, file cleanup, startup manager, and graphs that trace your PC's current CPU usage as well as its activity over time, including history of downloads, installs, optimizations, malware detections, malware scans, and alerts. Once I did that, I found a wealth of tools. It turned out that, in order to find the tools associated with each of the four categories, you have to first highlight the icon and then click a rather discreet down arrow at the right side of the main screen. For example, when I first clicked Performance, I was immediately able to find information about when my PC was last optimized and cleaned up, but I couldn't find any of Norton's performance tools.

Everything is presented in a main interface with four large icons representing the software's main features: Security, Identity, Performance and More Norton, which allows you to install Norton on other devices (by emailing a download link) and shows their status.ДЄlthough it's relatively clean looking, I found the interface somewhat confusing - at first, I wasn't sure how to drill down to get at the tools in each feature.

The Windows version of Norton Security offers a range of tools well beyond security, and encompasses useful performance tools such as a startup manager, disk optimizer and file cleanup. Overall, though, the Windows version is the star of this protection suite. It also falls down in iOS, but shines with Android. (There is also a Standard version costing $44.99 that protects a single Windows PC or Mac, but for an extra $5, it's definitely worth going with the Deluxe version.) The $69.99 Premium version adds 25GB of cloud-based storage, parental controls and protection for up to 10 devices.ДЄs is common with other security suites, Norton's Mac version is a bit bare bones.

For $49.99 a year, the Deluxe version offers protection for up to five devices on Windows, OS X, Android or iOS. Those who want not just security for multiple devices, but also a variety of Windows tools, will find Norton Security a top choice. There's now just a single piece of security software, Norton Security, which combines the tools and features from the previous packages into one product. Trying to decide which product was the best for you - not to mention the best priced - was no picnic. Once upon a time, Symantec's brand of Norton security software had one of the most confusing lineups around - products included Norton 360, Norton 360 Multi-Device, Norton Anti-Virus and Norton Internet Security.
