Email scam protection

We monitor your chosen email accounts 24/7 for possible scam emails.

Website scam protection

Shop, bank, and pay online more safely

Avast Premium Security scans websites to make sure they’re legitimate, so you can better avoid fake websites trying to steal your information. Shop, bank, and pay more securely without worrying about losing money to hidden scams.

Why not use our anti-scam AI assistant too?
If you suspect an online offer or message is trying to fool you, our Avast Assistant can help you identify if it’s a scam. It gives you easy-to-read guidance in real time.

Boost your PC’s defense against hackers trying to gain access

Viruses, ransomware, scams, and other attacks have always targeted Windows more than any other operating system, but what’s concerning is the rise of remote access attacks. The last thing you need is a hacker remotely taking control of your PC and infecting it with malware or locking your files with ransomware. But no need to worry — Avast Premium Security helps protect your PC against such attacks.
