MONTREAL – Bell says it wants to help its internet customers practice safer surfing with its launch today of a new McAfee Security feature.
Bell Internet customers will automatically be transferred to one of three McAfee Security from Bell tiers: Good, Better or Best. Customers currently using free Bell Internet security will receive the Good package at no extra charge. Bell Internet customers with enhanced security services will be moved to the corresponding Better and Best security packages. McAfee Security from Bell is compatible with both Windows and Mac.
“Bell Internet customers want to focus on social media, business, entertainment content, shopping, all the other great things they can do online –not on worrying whether their Internet security is up to date,” said Shawn Omstead, vice-president, products and services, in a release. “McAfee Security from Bell lets customers connect with confidence, knowing they’re protected online.”
Other features are included based on the customer’s package, such as SiteAdvisor, smartphone and tablet protection (BlackBerry and Android), encrypted storage, and parental controls featuring social network monitoring, program blocking, YouTube content filtering, and activity reports.
