Kaspersky introduces new "Pure" security package

Kaspersky PURE offers additional features with the core security suite. Russian AV vendor Kaspersky has introduced Kaspersky PURE, a security package that is specifically designed to meet the needs of multi-PC households. In addition to the security features (virus protection, firewall, identity protection and tune-up), PURE offers a backup tool, hard disk encryption, a password manager and a central network manager for local PCs. The product's tune-up, parental control and identity protection features have been extended compared to those of the Kaspersky security suite.

For instance, PURE supports various instant messengers and can control which PC is allowed to execute which applications and access which websites at what time. The rules can be centrally configured via the network manager. The manager also allows users to check a PC's current update status or start a virus scan. PURE will be available at the end of March at an annual subscription fee of 80 euros for a three PC licence.
