What is Active Protection and how does it protect me?
Our real-time agents monitor your computer 24/7, securing certain areas on your computer. When specific checkpoints are breached, the activity is immediately analyzed against CounterSpy’s database of known file and setting signatures, allowing unthreatening changes to be made; and alerting you to a potential spyware installation. In short, Active Protection intercepts many potential hazards in real-time and help you decide what code has access to your system. While it can’t realistically stop all spyware from installing, it is a powerful tool to help protect your system, reducing your chances of a recurring spyware installation.
