Which Norton 360 plan is best for you?

Norton 360 offers one of the most comprehensive security suites on the market, with dozens of available tools and features. Which Norton 360 plan is best for you depends on the level of protection you need, the number of devices you want coverage for (be they Macs, PCs, smartphones, or tablets), how much cloud storage you want, and whether you want to add Norton 360 Advanced identity protection tools

Here’s a breakdown:

Get Norton AntiVirus Plus if you need foundational scam and malware protection for a low price. This is our most affordable tier.

Get Norton 360 Standard if you want comprehensive scam and malware protection together with tools like a secure VPN, deepfake protection, and a password manager.

Get Norton 360 Deluxe if you want a similar set of features to Norton 360 Standard, but with added tools like parental control, dark web monitoring, coverage for more devices, and more Cloud Backup.

Get Norton 360 for Gamers if you want game performance optimisation alongside most of the features included in our Deluxe suite. This suite can be installed on three devices.

Get Norton 360 Premium if you want the same benefits as Norton 360 Deluxe, but with coverage for 5 devices and 100 GB of cloud backup. This option is perfect for larger families.

Get Norton 360 Advanced if you want to add identity protection tools to your Cyber Safety bundle. Norton 360 Advanced includes Safe Email, Safe Call, Identity Restoration Support, Equifax Credit Protect, Identity Theft Insurance, Financial Monitoring, and Social Media Monitoring.

Hint: If your needs change or you purchase a new device, you can easily transfer a Norton 360 license from one device to another or purchase a new licence for a new device at an additional cost.

Norton 360 features explained

Norton 360 products include a large number of features, helping make Norton one of the most well-rounded Cyber Safety providers out there. Read on for an overview of the key features and tools included in Norton 360 plans.

antivirus icon

Antivirus & malware protection

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans.

Antivirus and malware protection is the device-level security layer that helps protect your PC, mobile device, or Mac from malware threats and viruses (yes, Macs need antivirus too).

It works discreetly in the background to help detect, block, and remove threats before they can compromise your device or data. Norton technology blocks thousands of malware threats every day.

Here are a few types of malware that all Norton 360 and Norton AntiVirus Plus tiers help protect against.

  • Ransomware: Ransomware encrypts files and demands payment to restore access.
  • Spyware: Spyware, including infostealers and keyloggers, is designed to monitor activity and send personal or sensitive information to third parties.
  • Malicious apps: Malicious apps and potentially unwanted applications (PUAs) are programs that may harm your device, invade your privacy, or perform actions you didn’t intend.
  • Malvertising: Malvertising refers to malware hidden inside seemingly legitimate online ads.
  • Adware: Adware installs on your device to display unwanted or intrusive advertisements.
  • Trojans: Trojans appear to be legitimate software, but they’re malware that often grant hidden backdoor access to hackers.
  • Fileless malware: Fileless malware operates in memory rather than installing traditional files, making it harder to detect using standard file-based methods.
  • Pharming: Through pharming attacks, hackers redirect users from legitimate websites to malicious ones.
  • Browser hijackers: Browser hijacking is a malware technique that changes browser settings or redirects your web traffic without permission.
  • Rootkits: Rootkits are stealthy threats that grant hackers privileged access to your computer.
  • Worms: Computer worms are self-replicating malware that spread without attaching to a host file.

Independent testing labs continue to confirm the effectiveness of Norton 360’s anti-malware capabilities. Organisations like AV-TEST, AV-Comparatives, and SE Labs regularly evaluate real-world threat protection, including zero-day exploits and ransomware attacks. Their results consistently place Norton among the top performers.

We’re so confident in how well our antivirus works that we give our customers the Virus Protection Promise. If our Norton experts are unable to remove a virus from your device, you’re entitled to a refund — even if no other refund right applies (terms and conditions apply).

If you suspect your device is infected with malware, try our malware removal tool for free.

ai-powered icon

AI-powered scam protection

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans. Not all scam protection features are available on all plans.

Today’s cyber threats focus less on exploiting devices and more on manipulating people, using tactics like phishing messages, online scams, fake websites, and social engineering to prompt risky actions. Norton 360 helps address this shift with AI-powered protection that helps detect scam patterns across emails, texts, websites, and even videos.

In 2024 alone, Norton stopped more than 1.8 billion attacks, including an average of 191 million phishing and scam attempts. Norton 360’s multi-pronged scam protection includes Safe Web, Safe SMS, an AI assistant, deepfake protection, and other features.

Norton AntiVirus Plus, Norton 360 Standard, and Norton 360 Deluxe include foundational Scam Protection, which includes Safe Web, Safe SMS, a Scam Dashboard, Genie AI Assistant, a Private Browser, and Deepfake Protection. Norton 360 Advanced comes with Scam Protection Pro, which adds Safe Email and Safe Call.

Scam protection

The Safe Web feature protecting a user from a dangerous website.

Safe Web

Included in Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans.

Safe Web helps detect and block potentially malicious or fake websites before you visit them.

Genie AI Assistant

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans.

Genie AI assistant is a built-in AI helper that lets you paste or share suspicious messages, links, and websites to get a quick read on whether they’re likely to be a scam. It explains why something looks risky in plain language and offers clear next steps, so you can decide with confidence what to click, ignore, or delete.

It can also help answer general cybersecurity questions and assist you with your Norton products.

Deepfake Protection

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans.

Deepfake protection analyses streaming audio and video and looks for signs of AI‑generated scams and deepfake media. When it spots something suspicious, it sends a discreet alert so you can question what you’re seeing or hearing before you act on it.

Automatic Deepfake Protection is currently available for videos on YouTube, Facebook, X, TikTok, Vimeo, Instagram, Dailymotion, and Twitch. This feature requires a compatible PC. See the deepfake support page for details.

 

vpn icon

VPN

The Secure VPN in the Norton 360 desktop app.

Included in: All Norton 360 plans. Also available as a standalone product.

A virtual private network (VPN) encrypts the data you send and receive online, enhancing your privacy by helping prevent others from intercepting or tampering with your internet traffic. This is especially important for threats like man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, where attackers secretly monitor or alter communications between you and the websites you visit.

By encrypting your connection, a VPN makes it much harder for attackers to spy on your activity, whether you’re on public Wi-Fi or any other shared network. Other benefits of a VPN include better access to streaming content when you travel.

 

Every Norton 360 plan includes a secure VPN, with the number of supported devices depending on the plan you choose (VPN traffic is uncapped regardless). Norton VPN is also available as a standalone product.

Our VPN now offers faster, more secure browsing with upgraded high-speed servers and bank-grade encryption. Its strict no-log policy has been independently audited to verify that it doesn’t store users’ browsing activity.

cloud backup icon

Cloud Backup

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans. Cloud storage space and device coverage vary by plan.

Norton’s Cloud Backup automatically stores secure copies of your important files, photos, and videos, helping protect them if your device is lost, damaged, or affected by ransomware.

Different Norton 360 plans offer varying amounts of cloud backup storage. Choose a plan based on the amount of data you want to back up and the number of devices you need coverage for, keeping in mind your storage needs may grow over time.

smart firewall icon

Smart Firewall

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans.

A firewall helps protect your computer from unwanted intrusions by acting as a gatekeeper between your device and the internet. This added layer of protection helps keep personal information safer and reduces the likelihood of cybercriminals and malware from infiltrating your system.

Norton’s Smart Firewall provides added defences. It helps block suspicious apps, port scans, fake websites, and even advanced Wi‑Fi attacks. Working together with our built-in Intrusion Prevention System (IPS), it can also help inspect traffic for known attack patterns, check the reputation of sites and servers, and stop malicious downloads before they land on your device. This gives you stronger, layered protection at the network level.

safescam icon

SafeCam

SafeCam settings in the Norton 360 desktop app.

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 Plans.

SafeCam monitors which apps and services try to use your Windows PC webcam and alerts you in real time, so you can quickly allow trusted programs and block anything unexpected. This helps prevent webcam hacking

By helping make webcam access more transparent, SafeCam adds a layer of defence around one of the most sensitive devices on your PC: your camera. Whether you’re on a video call, streaming, or just working on your computer, SafeCam helps warn you about digital snoops, spies, and creeps.

SafeCam is not available on Mac, iOS, or Android devices.

 

password manager icon

Password Manager

Norton Password Manager dashboard.

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans. Also available as a standalone extension.

Strong, unique passwords help protect your online accounts. But remembering them all isn’t realistic. Norton Password Manager, included in all Norton 360 plans, or as a free extension, securely stores your usernames and passwords in a secret vault that uses bank-grade encryption, so you don’t have to. 

Weak or reused passwords are a common target for cybercriminals. Our password manager helps you create, store, and use strong passwords. Try our free password generator to test it out.

dark web monitoring icon

Dark Web Monitoring

Included in: Norton 360 Deluxe, Norton 360 Premium, Norton 360 Advanced and Norton 360 for Gamers.

Dark Web Monitoring scans dark web forums where stolen personal information is bought and sold and notifies you if your information is found, so you can take action.

Norton 360 monitors for a range of personal data, including driver’s licence numbers, insurance IDs, physical addresses, email addresses, bank and credit card numbers, and gamer tags.

If your personal information is exposed on the dark net following a data breach, you may be vulnerable to account takeovers and identity theft. You can test run the dark web monitor by typing in your email below.

See if we find your information on the dark web.

By simply entering your email, we search for potential threats to your identity.

We do not search all personal information at all criminal websites and may not find all breached data. We use the information you provide in accordance with our Global Privacy Statement.

parental control

Parental Control

Included in: Norton 360 Deluxe, Norton 360 Premium, Norton 360 Advanced, and Norton Family.

Norton Parental Control, compatible with Windows, Android, and iOS, gives you a central place to see what your kids are doing online, helping you set clear, age‑appropriate boundaries around their time, apps, and content. From a simple dashboard, you can review the sites they visit, what they search for, which videos they watch, and which apps they install — then adjust rules as they grow. Parental Control is also a key feature of Norton Family.

pc game optimizer

PC Game Optimizer

Screenshot of the Norton 360 for Gamers dashboard.

Included In: Norton 360 for Gamers.

The Game Optimizer feature detects supported PC games and automatically prioritises your CPU resources for the title you’re playing, pushing power‑hungry background tasks to the side for smoother, more responsive gameplay.

That means fewer slowdowns and frame drops from other apps, so you can get more performance out of your rig without manually tweaking settings every time you launch a game. This is an exclusive feature of Norton 360 for Gamers.

Live customer support

Included in: Norton AntiVirus Plus and all Norton 360 plans.

Norton 360 subscribers get access to live customer support. Whether you’re setting up protection on a new device, reviewing an alert, or adjusting your settings, support is available with clear, step-by-step help.

 

Identity protection

Included in: Norton 360 Advanced.

Norton 360 Advanced plans help safeguard your personal information and finances with built‑in identity protection features.
