Kaspersky Internet Security 2015
is the latest edition of Kaspersky's
comprehensive security suite, which delivers antivirus, a firewall,
browsing protection, antispam, exploit prevention, parental controls, an
ad blocker, parental controls and more.
The latest build now tackles "camfecting", illicit attempts to access a
webcam. Kaspersky's Application Control module tracks any programs which
try to connect to the webcam, warns you of access attempts and blocks
access if necessary.
There's brand new protection from
Cryptolocker-type malware. Kaspersky's System Watcher now looks out for
suspect programs trying to modify user files, and immediately backs up
the originals.

If the suite finds the changes were malicious then not
only will the malware be removed, but you'll get your original documents
back, too. (This isn't infallible - backups will be deleted when
Kaspersky Internet Security is closed - but it's still a welcome step
forward.)
Elsewhere, the firewall has been extended to check the
security of wi-fi hotspots and warn of problems, like a vulnerable
network connection or passwords being transferred in plain text. You can
even have the program block transfer of unencrypted passwords at all,
although this isn't enabled by default (see Settings > Protection
Center > Firewall).
One smaller change sees Kaspersky's Safe
Money module now block other applications from accessing the web browser
clipboard (sounds good, though we're surprised it didn't do that
before). And there are a raft of improvements elsewhere: faster startup
time, reduced resources consumption, smarter parental controls, improved
compatibility, and more.
All this is presented in a simplified,
subdued interface. Plain buttons highlight four main task areas: "Scan",
"Updater", "Safe Banking" and "Parental Controls". Click any of these
and a new pane fades into place, for the most part also keeping options
to the minimum. But this is nicely balanced, and experts can also call
up more detail very quickly. Click "Show Additional Tools" >
"Application Tools", say, and in-depth information on all your running
processes is only seconds away.
There's a good set of new
features here, then, but Kaspersky Internet Security's real strength
lies in its very solid protection. As we write, AV-Comparatives May 2014
Real-World Protection Test found Kaspersky blocked 99.9% of attacks
(and even the 0.1% didn't result in a compromised system): check out the
latest scores here.
