Virus protection Viruses and hacker attacks lurk everywhere: on a website while browsing, in an email attachment, or on a USB drive. They can spy on your devices, slow them down, or even render them unusable. That’s why you should install the My Security app from Swisscom on all your devices. It monitors everything happening on your device in the background and automatically blocks viruses and hacker attacks.
Protection against dangerous websites An online shop that isn’t really one? Or you click on a link and suddenly your online banking looks different than usual? Fraud protection immediately detects potentially dangerous websites, phishing attempts, and fake shops, and alerts you right while you’re browsing. When everything is safe, you’ll know it too: a brief notification appears, a green checkmark, or – for online banking – even a green border around the browser window. Just set up the add-on in your browser once, and fraud protection will work automatically.
Secure Online Banking When banking online, the security service protects you from phishing sites and ensures that you are only connected to genuine bank websites.
Parental Controls With parental controls, you can restrict internet access for children and teenagers. Specific websites can be blocked.
Public Wi-Fi protection with Virtual Private Network (VPN) When you're on the go and use public networks (such as Wi-Fi in hotels, restaurants, or airports), your information is often unencrypted. Other people and hackers can read along and see what you’re doing. This is especially dangerous when you’re doing online banking or entering your credit card information in online stores. So turn on VPN protection, and your internet connection and data will be securely encrypted.
Ad Blocker The ad blocker blocks annoying ads on websites, thereby improving your browsing experience.
Phishing Phishing is a scam in which criminals try to trick you into revealing personal data or passwords via fake emails, text messages, or websites.
Identity theft Cybercriminals regularly attack company websites and steal customer data, among other things. As a result, your email addresses, passwords, credit card numbers, etc., may suddenly be exposed online. This creates the risk that someone could misuse this data – for example, by making purchases with your credit card. So, enter all your sensitive data into ID Monitoring, and we’ll monitor it for you around the clock. If we detect a breach, you’ll immediately receive an alert and instructions on what to do next.
Data breach / data leak A data breach occurs when personal data becomes publicly accessible due to security vulnerabilities. This can happen, for example, through hacked online services.
Email Security Check With the Email Security Check, you can verify whether your email address appears in a known data breach. If your data is affected, you will be notified.
Identity Monitor Cybercriminals regularly attack company websites and steal customer data, among other things. As a result, your email addresses, logins, or passwords may suddenly be exposed online. In this case, there is a risk that someone could misuse this data. That’s why you should register your email address with Identity Monitor, and we’ll monitor it for you around the clock. If data theft is detected, you will immediately receive an alarm and clear instructions on what to do next.
Password security Using the same password everywhere is dangerous. If someone figures it out, they can access all your accounts. But how do you remember a different password for every account? That’s exactly what the password manager takes care of. You only need to remember one password – the one for the password manager. All other passwords can be automatically generated and securely stored. Set up the password manager now, regardless of your operating system, and every login will instantly become safer and easier.
Recognizing online fraud Online fraud can occur, for example, through fake messages, websites, or phone calls. Watch out for unusual links, urgent payment requests, or suspicious senders.
Protecting children and teens online Children should be supervised while surfing the Internet. Safety features help block inappropriate content and ensure safe usage.
Home Network Protection Home Network Protection automatically protects all devices connected to your home network from a central location via your router. This is particularly useful for smart home devices such as TVs, speakers, security cameras, baby monitors, or robot vacuums, which often don’t have their own security software. But laptops, smartphones, and tablets are also protected from online attacks. And you don’t have to secure each device individually. Just connect to the Wi-Fi, and protection is active.
