One of the pioneers of the internet security industry, Panda first launched a cloud-based scanner in 2007 – well ahead of the competition. Panda has been in the security business for over 20 years and has customers in nearly 200 countries. They have now translated their software into over 20 languages. They were the first internet security company to provide cloud-based antivirus protection in 2009 and launched the first Host Intrusion Prevention System in 2004. They are market innovators who keep in step with the equally creative cybercrime industry.

The Panda security suite also comes with access to the Panda Safe Browser. This browser secures Internet Explorer and Firefox. However, it works best on Firefox, which Panda considers a safer browser than IE. The safe browser is a virtual machine, which means it runs completely isolated from your PC to provide complete security. In addition, since it does not run on your PC it also does not save website history, so you can enjoy private browsing. This tool also provides a safe zone for conducting online purchases and exchanging your sensitive information such as credit card numbers, address and social security number. The Safe Browser, since it is a virtual machine, may run a bit slower than what you are used to but is well worth the protection.

With the parental control tool you can create profiles for kids, teens, employees or any other type of user. It can also manage block and allow lists for each user profile. If you are worried about what your kids might be doing while you are away, you can configure Panda to create reports of restricted websites that your teens attempt to access. The identity protection tool lets you configure exactly what information you do not want shared online without your permission, such as your social security or credit card number. To protect you data and media even further they provide 2GB of free online storage, and you can access your computer and applications settings remotely. Another powerful tool it has is the ability to create a Panda SafeCD, which can safely remove malware from your computer if you cannot access Windows.
This internet security software can perform custom scans as well as scheduled scans. You can also configure it to scan files on a disc or USB drive, emails, instant messages and websites. It can also run vulnerability scans to look for outdated software such as missing Windows updates.
