Although this forms part of the standard package, it needs to be downloaded separately and installed from a link within the main KSC interface. The third tool in this set is that of Password Manager. Not only does this module check that you have the latest definitions but whether other software applications have the latest versions. The Database Update tool can be used to check that everything is up-to-date and current. As the default setting for a scan is set at Full, which can be rather time consuming especially on heavily populated devices, you might prefer to make use of the Quick or Selected options to save on time. Scans can be scheduled to occur at user-specified occasions. There are different types of scan identified as Full, Quick or Selected with a further option to check out an external device. A scan tool can be used to check out the device. The KSC interface opens with a dashboard type view showing six main tools arranged in two rows. The software can also deliver a secure connection, via VPN technology, if a connection to the Wi-Fi on offer is from locations such as cafes or airports. This feature involves additional protection being turned on in situations when the user makes an unsecured Wi-Fi connection and advice given when a password might be under the threat of being hacked. KSC has been designed to use Adaptive Security. A restart of the computer will be required to complete the installation and a brief tour of the software will cover some of the product’s feature set. If a previous version of Kaspersky Internet Security is detected, this will be removed before the KSC software is installed. Capable of covering the Windows, Mac, iOS and Android platforms, installing and setting up KSC is straightforward as you follow various screen prompts.
The personal product is available for either 3 or 5 devices on a one or two year license agreement. This review is based on the personal edition of the product.
