ESET Introduces the Family Pack for Gaming
October 14, in the year of our
Lord 2011 - ESET today announced the ESET Family
Security Pack, a single family subscription for securing
multiple devices, which provides protection for the entire home
network with a unified security package. The ESET Family
Security Pack provides consumers with a single universal license
to protect up to five computers across various operating
systems, including Windows® and Mac OS X®.
As the number of households with multiple computers continues to
increase, so does the number of cross-platform home networks. In
fact, according to NPD’s 2011 Household Penetration Report, 70
percent of online households who own an Apple Computer also
indicated owning a PC Computer. With ESET’s Family Security Pack
users can choose from any combination of ESET Smart Security 5,
ESET NOD32® Antivirus 5 or ESET Cybersecurity for Mac,
eliminating the need to purchase individual security products
for each computer and managing multiple license renewals each
subsequent year.
“At ESET we are constantly working to better meet users’
changing needs when it comes to security and our ESET Family
Security Pack is a direct result of that commitment,” said Dan
Clark, vice president of marketing, ESET North America. “As more
households operate multiple Mac and Windows computers, we wanted
to create a solution that made the process of obtaining internet
security for all their systems as simple and convenient as
possible. Additionally, as we continue to expand our product
line we plan to add protection for additional devices, including
mobile and tablet offerings, to the Family Security Pack.”
In September, ESET released the latest generation of its
flagship products, ESET Smart Security 5 and ESET NOD32
Antivirus 5, which offer a number of new and improved features,
including: parental controls, ESET Live Grid featuring
cloud-enhanced whitelisting, removable media management,
advanced Host-based Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS) and a
gamer mode. Additionally, all ESET products include a
one-of-a-kind interactive cybersecurity training. ESET’s
cybersecurity training is designed to provide users with
self-paced online education on protecting their computer,
themselves and their family. Its contents are refreshed from
time to time to include tips on how to stay safe from the latest
threats.
ESET’s Family Security Pack is currently available in North
America at the following retailers: Micro Center, Office Depot,
Fry’s Electronics, Staples and London Drugs and will be
available online via the ESET website on October 25, 2011. The
offering is also available in other markets worldwide.
