The Multi-Device product combines Kaspersky’s Internet Security 2014, Internet Security for Mac and Internet Security for Android into one product with one activation code.

Andrew Mamonitis, Kaspersky Lab ANZ’s Managing Director explained that as digital devices vary by their characteristics, platforms and interfaces, each requires a specific and optimised approach to protection.

“The different platforms and operating systems which offer connectivity means Internet users are exposed to the same security risks regardless of the device being used. The Multi-Device solution gives users the freedom to use their connected devices securely and to their full potential, making a multi-device digital life easier to handle.”

The solution works by monitoring and analysing potential threats in real-time and allows users to mix-and-match their device security, depending on the number and mix of devices they have, as well as using a variety of combinations to meet the user’s needs.

In recent years, a flood of Android tablets and smartphones that access the Internet without proper security has given cybercriminals a new type of vulnerable and potentially lucrative targets.

According to recent statistics, millions of Australians use multiple smart devices to go online and use apps. By 2020, it is estimated that the average Australian will own six smart devices. In New Zealand, households using more than one device to connect to the Internet have doubled in recent years.

The latest security solution also offers premium anti-theft and loss protection for Android devices by providing remotely-operated features to help protect a user’s personal information and locate the device, offering additional back-up security.
