ESET Internet Security

ESET Internet Security represents a new approach to truly integrated computer security. The most recent version of the ESET LiveGrid® scanning engine, combined with our custom Firewall and Antispam modules, utilizes speed and precision to keep your computer safe. The result is an intelligent system that is constantly on alert for attacks and malicious software that might harm your computer.

ESET Internet Security is a complete security solution that combines maximum protection and a minimal system footprint. Our advanced technologies use artificial intelligence to prevent infiltration by viruses, spyware, trojans, worms, adware, rootkits, and other threats without hindering system performance or disrupting your computer.

Features and benefits

Redesigned user interface	The user interface in this version has been significantly redesigned and simplified based on the results of usability testing. All GUI wording and notifications have been carefully reviewed, and the interface now provides support for right-to-left languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. Online Help is now integrated into ESET Internet Security and offers dynamically updated support content.
Dark mode	An extension that helps you quickly switch the screen to a dark color scheme. You can choose your preferred color scheme in User interface elements.
Antivirus and antispyware	Proactively detects and cleans more known and unknown viruses, worms, trojans and rootkits. Advanced heuristics flags even never-before-seen malware, protecting you from unknown threats and neutralizing them before they can do any harm. Web access protection and Anti-Phishing protection monitors communication between web browsers and remote servers (including SSL). Email client protection provides control of email communication received through the POP3(S) and IMAP(S) protocols.
Regular updates	Regularly updating the detection engine (previously known as "virus signature database") and program modules is the best way to ensure the maximum level of security on your computer.
