G Data Antivirus 1D/1Y

G Data Antivirus is an ideal antivirus solution for home users. The software is optimized for a low resource usage during its work and thus a high speed also with the background scan of important data. A loss of performance when using other applications is therefore not to be feared. To ensure the high virus detection rates of the program, two virus scanners work in it. These search both already known malware as well as completely new viruses or threats, which are limited only locally to the respective device. A look at the emergence of new viruses shows that this technology is necessary: ​​about every six seconds new malware appears on the Internet. Users who buy G Data Antivirus will get the most out of it.

To ensure reliable protection, G Data Antivirus works proactively. As soon as a file being executed behaves suspiciously - for example, by starting processes in the background that have nothing to do with the actual file - they are stopped by the anti-virus software. Experienced users can then manually decide what to do with the file. All others rely on the software's secure presets. This also works for downloads: they do not get fully into the PC as soon as the antivirus scanner detects a threat. Since the Internet is the biggest gateway for malicious software of any kind, users protect themselves with this technology very effectively.

As users buy G Data Antivirus, they also protect themselves from the vulnerabilities of other programs such as Adobe Flash, Microsoft Office, and similar applications. No software can ever be 100% secure - and G Data Antivirus keeps those vulnerabilities hidden. Thus, users have nothing to fear, even if vulnerabilities are exploited, which are tailored specifically to the software on their own computer. This also works for gaps that are not yet known: The antivirus program checks how the malware behaves and whether their approach differs from normal programs.

Using the tool also makes surfing the Internet much safer: websites that are infected with malicious code block the virus scanner before it is even called. This makes it much safer to shop online or to operate online banking. These security features are also extended to include special banking Trojans: these exist to manipulate referrals, causing significant damage in some cases. The BankGuard technology integrated in G Data Antivirus immediately detects such manipulations and then replaces them with the original transfer. The malicious software will be deleted in the same breath of course.

The program also provides excellent protection against blackmail Trojans that have spread in recent years. These encrypt the contents of a hard drive and release it only after a payment. Again, proactive technology is used to prevent any data from being encrypted. If suspicious activity is happening on the hard disk, the antivirus solution will immediately stop this process and give you feedback about it. Blackmailers will not stand a chance for users who buy G Data Antivirus to protect themselves against threats of all kinds and keep their files permanently secure.

In developing the software, care was taken to achieve a minimum utilization of resources. Despite the numerous features that also provide protection against infected e-mails in addition to the aforementioned mechanisms, there is no loss of performance even on older devices. This is also reflected in the low system requirements. Even older computers and notebooks can be excellently protected by buying G Data Antivirus.
