Webroot

Webroot: the antivirus you barely notice

Webroot, now part of OpenText, takes a different approach from classic antivirus. Instead of downloading large signature databases to your computer, it does the analysis in the cloud. The program takes up only a few megabytes, scans finish in minutes and installation takes seconds.

The editions

• SecureAnywhere AntiVirus: real-time protection against viruses, ransomware and phishing, for Windows PCs and Macs.
• SecureAnywhere Internet Security Plus: adds protection for Android and iOS phones and password management, for 1 or 3 devices.
• SecureAnywhere Internet Security Complete: the full suite, with secure cloud storage and tools that erase your browsing traces.

Why choose it

• Ideal for older or low-powered computers: its system impact is among the lowest on the market.
• Works alongside other programs: thanks to its architecture, it rarely conflicts with other security software.
• Rollback: if an unknown program turns out to be malicious, Webroot can undo the changes it made to your system.

Delivery and activation

The license code arrives by email. Download the program from the official Webroot website, enter the code during installation, and protection is active in under a minute.

Frequently asked questions

Does it need a constant internet connection?

Full analysis happens in the cloud, but Webroot keeps protecting you offline too, monitoring unknown programs until the connection returns.

Does it cover Macs?
