Avast One Essential

The core free platform offers Avast’s award-winning security protection coupled with a generous Virtual Private Network allowance for regular browsing use, data breach monitoring service, and a software updater feature. It includes:

Protection: Avast One Essential includes award-winning antivirus protection from cyber threats, including ransomware, spyware, and phishing attacks. It also comes with a firewall that blocks incoming connections and prevents leaks of sensitive data. Finally, Ransomware Shield gives you an additional layer of protection for your important files and folders.

Privacy: Avast One Essential includes a generous VPN allowance of 5GB per week, (which leads major security providers in the market), so you can always connect securely and privately. You also get free identity protection via the Data Breach Monitoring feature, which  enables you to find out if your account has been compromised, and the ability to Clear Browsing Data to limit the tracking and sharing of your personal information.

Performance: Finally, Mac Speedup optimizes the background activity of your apps to improve your device’s performance and a Software Updater keeps commonly-used third party software up to date and eliminates potential security risks.

Avast One Individual or Family

For users seeking comprehensive protection, the premium versions include full featured privacy, security and performance components for true peace of mind. In addition to all of the features offered by Essential, Avast One Individual or Family includes:

Security: An advanced Firewall that hides your Mac’s identifiers from other devices on the network and notifies you the moment other devices scan the Mac for open ports. You’re protected from Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) spoofing attacks — which is when cybercriminals mask their computer as a network member to steal information — and from DNS hijacking, via the Web Hijack Guard feature. Meanwhile, the Webcam Shield prevents applications and malware from accessing your Mac's webcam without your consent. In a world where many store their passwords in their browser, It helps you secure them against malware and unwanted applications.

Privacy: People can automatically monitor five (Individual) or 10 (Family) emails via the Data Breach Monitoring feature to observe whether they have been compromised in a data leak. With Avast One, users also have access to unlimited VPN services and can choose from 55 server locations in 34 countries to protect their sensitive data while browsing or completing sensitive transactions.

Performance: With Avast One’s Driver Updater, you can securely update your drivers, improving and protecting your device. To prevent supply-chain-attacks, every single update is checked by the Avast Threat Labs for viruses.
