Modules of Scanguard Review 2019:
NetBarrier is a personal firewall which monitors your Internet connection and what connections are transferred between your computer and the Internet. The washing machine helps to clean the computer, deleting not used programs and updating the software to the latest version. ContentBarrier Intego contains parental control which allows you to set time limits and to block dangerous content for your children. And Personal Backup — the excellent tool for protection of confidential files and programs on the Internet in case your computer will be infected or will fail.
One tool which Intego is absent is safe viewing. This tool warns if you try to visit the site with malicious URLs, loadings or phishing schemes. The majority of web browsers have this function, but our tests of browsers show that though their safety features impress and are useful, there are some more threats for Mac and Windows which still get. That is why we consider that an anti-virus software should include the safe instrument of viewing. Intego — the only thing the software tested by us for safety on the Internet which has no own settings of the safe browser. To receive this function, we recommend to look at the standard of safety Norton as it is closest to the price of Intego and turns on similar instruments of protection.
