Trend Micro and Panda are both top names in the antivirus market with millions of users each. They use the latest malware detection methods, combining signature-scanning and behavior-monitoring. Plus, they offer multiple packages with additional safety features.
Trend Micro provides strong online defense. Their social media protection optimizes your privacy settings and the browser extension ensures websites are safe. The parental controls and digital file shredder to ensure all trashed items are deleted completely are included. The PC optimization tools will speed up your system by deleting all out-of-date files and software. If you need help, the “Ask Vanessa” support bot can answer questions quickly. Trend Micro’s antivirus subscription covers up to three PCs for one price.
Panda has a 100% malware detection success rate, although it has returned some false positives. It offers a wide range of security protocols like a firewall, free VPN, parental controls, a virtual keyboard to avoid keyloggers, and WiFi protection that alerts you to insecure networks. Panda also offers features for physical theft like the “Find My Device” remote tool and an option that takes a picture from the front camera after three failed log-in attempts. The software is available for most major operating systems.
