Norton Internet Security (NIS) 2009 is proof listen to the opinions of Symantec users. Manufacturer has launched a more lightweight version, run faster and more efficient. Features of NIS 2009 was chau mouse again and the majority of professionals and highly valued. One of the features worth Hoanh nghênh insight is used to determine the files and applications "trust", to help NIS 2009 is not time to scan them again unless the data has changed . There currently is no package security applications have this feature.
The logic operation of NIS 2009 was a change remarkably. CNET experiment showed that the application run faster and more lightweight than the previous year (NIS 2008), even when just running a virus applications do not. However, in terms of technical support is to show Symanec disadvantage. Although Norton users can call for free support but often they do not have the full information to fix the problem. If no to this aspect is perhaps NIS 2009 is an application security perfect year.
Setting
Experiment showed that the 58MB download of Norton Internet Security 2009 and install only occur within 1 minute. Instead of using the engine installed by Microsoft, Symantec has used the engine settings. Results showed that the engine this process quickly through application streaming by Norton Ghost. Symantec says that the installation takes less than 1 minute, and they were right! Experiment with Windows Vista and Windows XP shows that the cut set occur within 1 minute and not reboot.
If you want to uninstall the application, the Norton also provides an uninstall individual, not the same as before the process is complex and full of trouble.
Interface
+ Advantages: fast, technical support free
+ Khuyết: It is a technical support free of charge but not full and intimate, making the user must go to service charge.
Again about the trouble, the last year of NIS 2008 did not convince the user. But this year, the NIS 2009 has been redesigned to look "clean" and more sophisticated than, the matching a security product great. Users can change the color of the interface if they wish. NIS 2009 has the tab allows you to purchase other Norton products. The details can enable or disable the display easily without having to go through the steps complex configuration.
Own page setup configuration form is a button under the main page. This interface is also provided in the dialog box pop-up to explain the specific configuration. Section below (left panel) of 2 representative graphs, one for all Windows resources are used, and the remainder for natural resource products that use Norton. Compared with the resources in the Windows Task Manager, you will see some similar features between them. Symantec said it in the Task Manager based on the NIS 2009 also conducted the analysis of individual. And feel of it looks like NIS 2009 performed this work a better way.
Features
Recently, Norton products have been integrated a number of sophisticated technology and complex only in enterprise products. However, what also has 2 face it, sometimes the technology is necessary, but sometimes not needed by the body products that do not need them. However, in NIS 2009 seems like the new technologies have found the right place.
Technology Symantec's first insight is (as said above), NIS 2009 does not help to "take the" scanning the "file" trusted unless they are changed compared to previous scan. This capability enables applications can save resources, help programs run faster and more efficient.
Symantec also to improve the ability to track home network, allowing administrators can "market entry of" immediately the whole security situation and the level of stability of the system PC.
With NIS 2009, we again see an individual concepts are very common from the start of the year 90, which features a Recovery Disk. However, Symantec not equipped attached backup solution, but if you want users to purchase products by this manufacturer.
The past and the full currency LiveUpdate harmful products in the Norton before, NIS 2009 allows applications can update the virus signature in a few short minutes to save effort and time for users.
However, NIS 2009 also lacks some features of security normally found in other products, such as McAfee Total Protection, which allows secure delete a file, or track IP addresses risk. In addition, NIS 2009 will not have a security solution for any mobile.
Performance
Test by CNET Labs found that NIS 2009 points better write some applications other independent antivirus. When trying to iTunes, NIS 2009 just 272 seconds to finish scanning, 3 seconds faster than version Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009. When you try to Microsoft Office, NIS 2009 died 1443 seconds, the average ratings. When trying to file and folder compression, the 2009 loss of NIS 202 second (relatively quite). Boot time by NIS 2009 is 33 seconds.
Aspects of PC security, the test by AV-Comparatives.org NIS 2009 shows that of 97% are malicious software. Also with the ability to proactively prevent the NIS 2009 seems to be more vulnerable - only prevention is 18% new virus samples.
Support
As said above, although the support is free, but in general the user NIS 2009 does not meet on this, by the support that is not enough you can overcome problems.
