The previous 2019 version extended the package with a new password manager. When it's finished, clicking 'Resolve all' allows you to review the results and fix whatever the program has found. Just click 'Run Smart Scan' and Avast immediately runs a quick check for malware, missing software updates, network vulnerabilities even looks for weak passwords and junk files. The program interface is clean and very easy to use.

Compatibility seems good, too, with the package running happily alongside Bitdefender Internet Security on our test PC. Installation is simple and straightforward. The suite builds on the previous Avast Internet Security (which is now unavailable) with an automated software update tool, which can not only alert you to new updates but download and install them as well.Īnother big extra is a military-grade data shredder, which can wipe important files, documents and other personal data, and ensure there's no chance they can be recovered. Avast Premium Security 2020 is the company's premium security suite and includes an antivirus engine, firewall, browsing protection and browser cleanup tool.
