We figured out how they work, and ranked the best antiviruses to protect home and work computers. Below we have compiled the five most popular antiviruses that provide the best protection for personal data and have useful additional features.

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus

Antivirus Plus is one of the most popular antiviruses in the world, developed by the Romanian company Bitdefender. Its arsenal has a complete set of tools to prevent any virus attacks, while a special software kernel minimizes the load on the processor and RAM, preventing a decrease in performance during operation.

Kaspersky Total Security

Of the interesting features, there is compatibility with all, including mobile OS, and the Kaspersky Safe Kids function, which allows you to track the location of a child and protect it from unnecessary sites.

Avast Pro Antivirus

The product of the Czech company Avast Software, leading its history since 1988, can be safely called a bestseller. In 2017, Avast Antivirus became the most popular antivirus in the world, surpassing all competitors in terms of market share. In our country, Avast is known primarily for its version of Free Antivirus, which, despite the free distribution, has shown high efficiency in detecting viruses.

Of the advantages of its system, Avast notes CyberCapture technology, which automatically sends unknown files found by users to the laboratory, which helps to update virus signatures as quickly as possible. An interesting feature is a passive mode, which allows you to use another antivirus in parallel with Avast, for example, built-in to Windows 10.

Like its competitors, it can effectively counter most of the well-known cyber threats and includes web protection, phishing protection, and email protection.
