* Added option “Enable QUIC / HTTTP3 scanning” in the settings menu> Security> Basic security components> Web protection. * A quick scan can be added at any time as you wish. * Now you can automatically turn off the computer after completing a full, selective and custom scan. The antivirus engine consists of multiple detection methods: signatures, polymorphic (to find new variants of known viruses, even if they now have a different behavior), heuristics (determines malware based on the program’s behavior and should work when the signature method fails), real-time outbreak (adds crowd intelligence to the cloud to detect the newest threats) and CyberCapture, a new feature launched by AVG that’s a cloud-based smart file scanner which isolates and analyzes suspicious items. Six types of scanning modes are available, once the initial scan is over: the full scan looks into all parts of the computer for malware, deep virus scan checks only areas most likely to get infected, and USB / DVD scan which verifies removable media devices.
As far as the interface is concerned, the latest edition of AVG Internet Security has a new, more sophisticated design.
