What is Norton?
Norton sells security software that protects PCs, Macs, phones and tablets from viruses, malware, ransomware, hacking and scams. Its Norton 360 suites bundle antivirus with a password manager, cloud backup, a VPN, dark web monitoring, deepfake protection and parental controls. Higher tiers add LifeLock identity theft protection with credit alerts and stolen funds reimbursement.
Plans are annual subscriptions that renew automatically. Each covers a set number of devices, from 1 up to 10 for personal plans and up to 20 for small business plans. A discounted introductory price applies in the first year, and every plan comes with a 60-day money-back guarantee. Genie AI scam detection checks SMS messages, and Scam Protection Pro also blocks scam calls.
