Protects against all viruses and Internet threats
By
combining cloud-based functionality and powerful security technologies
that run on your PC, Kaspersky Internet Security 2013 delivers more
effective defences against today’s increasingly complex threats – so
you’re able to enjoy the Internet, while Kaspersky protects you, your PC
and your children.
In addition to including all of the features
offered by Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2013, Kaspersky Internet Security 2013
delivers many innovative, new technologies that are essential to
defending you against sophisticated threats on the Internet. With Safe
Money, Secure Keyboard and other unique features, Kaspersky Internet
Security 2013 does more to help ensure you can get the best out of the
Internet… without compromising your safety.
Detects new, emerging and unknown threats
The cloud-based
Kaspersky Security Network
gathers data from millions of participating users’ systems around the
world… to help defend you from the very latest viruses and malware
attacks. Potential threats are monitored and analysed – in real-time –
and dangerous actions are completely blocked before they can cause any
harm.
Identifies suspicious websites and phishing websites
Advanced
anti-phishing technologies proactively detect fraudulent URLs and use
real-time information from the cloud, to help ensure you’re not tricked
into disclosing your valuable data to phishing websites. Our
URL Advisor also adds colour-coded tags to all web links – to advise you of the danger level of the link and subsequent pages.
Delivers greater security for online shopping and banking
Kaspersky
Internet Security has always included additional layers of security
that help to keep your information safe during online transactions.
Now, with the introduction of our unique
Safe Money technology,
you benefit from even greater protection. Safe Money automatically
checks that the website you’re visiting is secure – and it also offers
to open the website in a special, protected mode… to help keep your
credit card number and other personal data safe from cyber thieves.
Protects your privacy and your digital identity
Kaspersky
Internet Security 2013 provides a wide range of technologies to protect
your privacy and your identity – including two unique security features
for entering personal information online:
- Secure Keyboard
is a new Kaspersky technology that automatically activates whenever you
open a bank website or payment website – or you enter a password within
any web page – to ensure that information you enter using your physical
keyboard can’t be accessed by keyloggers
- For our ultimate protection, Kaspersky’s improved Virtual Keyboard
feature allows you to use mouse-clicks to enter your banking
information – so that keystrokes can’t be tracked or stolen by
keyloggers, hackers or identity thieves
Keeps your children safe and responsible
Award-winning
family protection features help you to keep your children safe and also
give you greater control over your children’s access to the PC, the
Internet, applications, games and websites. You can block, limit or log
your children’s Instant Messaging and social network communications –
and block the transfer of private data, such as phone or credit card
numbers.
Prevents malware from exploiting vulnerabilities in your PC
If
your PC has application or system vulnerabilities that haven’t been
updated with the latest fixes, cyber criminals and malware could gain
entry. In addition to scanning for vulnerabilities, Kaspersky Internet
Security 2013 analyses and controls the actions of programs that have
vulnerabilities – so they can’t cause any harm.
Automatic download and installation features – save you time and effort
Installation
now requires far fewer manual steps. When you first download the
product from our website, it automatically checks for the latest product
version – disinfects existing malware, if necessary – and then starts
the installation.
Compatible with Windows 8
Kaspersky
Internet Security 2013 is fully compatible with Microsoft’s latest
operating system – Windows 8 – and is integrated with Microsoft’s latest
IT security innovations. In addition, Kaspersky Now – a new application
that has been developed to support Microsoft’s new user interface –

features.
Safe Money adds even stronger security for online banking and shopping New!
Kaspersky Internet Security has always provided protection for online
transactions... and, in the latest version, whenever you attempt to log
on to an online bank, a payment system website or an e-commerce site,
our unique, new
Safe Money feature will:
- Compare the website’s URL with a database of secure sites
- Check
the certificate used to set up the secure connection – to avoid any
behind-the-scenes transition from your intended site to a ‘fake’ site
- Check your system for online banking vulnerabilities related to your PC’s operating system
- Automatically suggest opening the site in the Safe Money mode – for added security against the theft of personal and financial data
... so Kaspersky’s advanced technologies are always protecting you when you’re online – shopping, banking and more.

helps to improve performance and reduce the time taken for installation
and updates.

ease of use for many popular user scenarios – including launching scans
