NortonLifeLock announced that the Norton Security Universal Windows Platform app will be pre-installed on select new Lenovo laptop PCs. Expanding its collaboration of more than two decades, NortonLifeLock will help protect Lenovo's always-on, always-connected laptops, including the Yoga 5G, IdeaPad 5G and IdeaPad 4G LTE, bringing a trusted level of security to consumers.
Last year, Lenovo paved the way for 5G-connected laptops with the introduction of the innovative Yoga 5G. Now, with the release of the mainstream IdeaPad 5G and IdeaPad 4G LTE models earlier this year, Lenovo expands consumers' options and access to the freedom of all-day, anywhere connectivity.
Key features of the Norton Security UWP app include browser protection that helps protect personal information from hackers and online scams, a secure VPN to help block malicious network threats and unwanted ad tracking, and Dark Web Monitoring, which notifies users when their personal information is found on dark web marketplaces, where cybercriminals buy and sell stolen information.
Browser protection: Helps protect the device and personal information from online scams, fraudulent websites and malicious links that install ransomware, trojans and other cyberthreats.
App insight: Automatically scans Microsoft Store apps for suspicious activities and online privacy leaks.
Lenovo laptops pre-installed with the Norton Security UWP are available now in select markets.
