[1][2] Surfshark Antivirus offers real-time protection to users by scanning and identifying potential threats on devices.
[4][5] Surfshark Antivirus features CleanWeb, a tool that minimizes ads, blocks trackers, and protects against phishing.
It offers real-time protection, monitoring systems around the clock to guard against malware, and operates efficiently in the background.
When malware is detected, the user is presented with a list of potentially harmful files and can select which one they want to delete.
If the backup process is unsuccessful, the file is renamed by changing the extension to “.infected.” Available on Windows, macOS, and Android.
[15] Quarantine is a feature that automatically isolates potentially harmful files found after a scan or real-time detection so they aren’t executable.
In November and December 2022, Surfshark Antivirus for Windows (versions 4.4 & 4.5) received certification from AV TEST, the Independent IT-Security Institute from Magdeburg, Germany.
