About

The Advanced Protection Program safeguards users with high visibility and sensitive information from targeted online attacks. New protections are automatically added to defend against today’s wide range of threats. Gmail blocks over 100 million phishing attempts every day. But sophisticated phishing tactics can trick the most savvy users into giving their sign-in credentials to hackers. Advanced Protection requires you to use a security key to verify your identity and sign in to your Google account. Unauthorized users won’t be able to sign in without your username and password. Safe browsing on Chrome protects 4 billion devices against risky sites, and Advanced Protection performs even more stringent checks before each download. It flags or even blocks you from downloading, files that may be harmful. Only app installations from verified stores, like Google Play Store and your device manufacturer’s app store, are allowed.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Nothing. I was happy when I could finally uninstall it.
  • None.
  • I didn't notice any positives other than scanning my downloads. Rescanning my computer with Malwarebytes, it missed SO MUCH.
  • Performs functions of most standard web protectors. Tested on some confirmed malicious sources to ensure it worked.
  • There are none, it's a virus. There's nothing good to say about the product at all.

Cons

  • It did not provide any protection, and kept hijacking my default search engine to Yahoo secure search.
  • Horrible intrusive app.
  • Had to do so much research and uninstalling after realizing they were somehow changing my browser to redirect to Yahoo from Google. SO ANNOYING.
  • Leaves a redirect virus that is left over and re-installs itself even after uninstalling McAfee Web Advisor. Had to remove registry data to resolve the issue.
  • Any so called anti virus program that installs itself without permission and then cannot be deleted is clearly a scam. It adds no value to you at and just slows your computer down with continued popups. The people who operate these kinds of service are trying to trick you out of your money and will kill your computer to do it.
