McAfee has a solid reputation for digital security, with software that hits most of the hot buttons. Its Antivirus program is highly effective at detaching malware from your PC or mobile device. Users also love its iOS and Android apps. You can increase security by using Windows Hello or a finger print sensor, or setting up other devices for authentication at the entrance to your home network and also encrypting files and data on your device.
All the features we tested were working well. The speedy scans took only eight minutes to identify the presence of viruses in areas that are known to infect, like registry or system files. The full scans we conducted took a little longer, but were less than average for the field.
The antivirus itself is easy to navigate and uses a clean interface with all functions carefully grouped into their own tabs for convenience. The Tracker Remover feature is especially helpful, deleting cookies and temporary files that can eat up space and potentially provide hackers with sensitive information. Unfortunately, accessing some of the most important features, such as parental controls and identity theft protections, requires you to log into a separate online dashboard.
