Norton security software like Norton 360 or Norton AntiVirus protects against hacking in a way that it stops malware from infecting a device. Hackers use malware to create a back door in operating systems so they can gain access to a device. Security software may also block you from visiting a malicious webpage that asks you for your personal information.
Examples of protection against hackers are:
-
- stopping you from visiting a suspicious website;
- downloading a suspicious file from the Internet;
- warning you about an email that contains malware or a link to it.
