Protect all your devices with 30% off in the Kaspersky Lab UK sale

TwitterFacebook

We only know two things about Kaspersky Lab. We know that the service it offers provides protection for all your devices, including your PC, Mac, and Android phone and tablet. We also know that from time to time, Kaspersky Lab drops its prices across the board, and now is one of those times.

You can secure Kaspersky Anti Virus, Kaspersky Internet Security, or Kaspersky Total Security at 30% less than list price. This deal isn’t around for long, and you’ll have to pounce before Feb. 7 to avoid missing out.

Kaspersky Lab services protect all of your devices, with just one license to buy. Every device you use can theoretically compromise your security, so Kaspersky Lab covers everything. It also locks, wipes, and locates your devices if they’re lost or stolen. This protection doesn’t come at the detriment of your device’s performance either; Kaspersky’s protection technologies work behind the scenes, meaning performance should not be negatively affected.

“The Irish DPC will be very closely scrutinising Facebook’s plans as they develop, particularly insofar as they involve the sharing and merging of personal data between different Facebook companies,” the statement reads. Read more…

Has the fight over privacy changed at all in 2019?

Few issues divide the tech community quite like privacy. Much of Silicon Valley’s wealth has been built on data-driven advertising platforms, and yet, there remain constant concerns about the invasiveness of those platforms.
