Norton offers a premium password management
experience for free
New Private Email feature in Norton AntiTrack
changes email addresses and removes hidden trackers to bolster
online privacy
TEMPE,
Ariz. & PRAGUE, Oct. 19,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Norton, a consumer Cyber
Safety brand of Gen™ (NASDAQ: GEN), today unveiled new features
included with Norton Password Manager and Norton AntiTrack. Norton
Password Manager offers a premium password management experience
that continues to be available at no cost, and a new Private Email
feature now available in Norton AntiTrack helps consumers
quickly and easily take back control of their online privacy.
"Our enhancements to Norton Password Manager and Norton
AntiTrack exemplify our passion for constantly improving our
products and services to help our customers protect their online
privacy and stay one step ahead of threats to their security," said
Leena Elias, Chief Product Officer
at Gen. "Free password managers are traditionally basic, difficult
to access on different devices, and lack multi-layered security.
With Norton Password Manager, you no longer have to choose between
conveniently accessing your accounts and having excellent password
protection. And, our addition of Private Email as part of Norton
AntiTrack allows you to easily take steps to protect your online
privacy when you're engaging with the digital world and protect
your personal email address, which is often the gateway to your
personal information and accounts. We are committed to helping our
customers safeguard their online privacy through the launch of
these solutions."
Accessible via the web, and available as a browser extension or
mobile app, Norton Password Manager has been rebuilt with
improvements to password security and privacy and redesigned to
provide a seamless, intuitive customer experience.
Norton Password Manager now delivers greater convenience,
security, and privacy with the following upgrades:
- Strengthened Vault Security and Recovery: We notify you
if your vault password needs to be strengthened and monitor the
dark web for your vault password to help keep your passwords
secure. New vault access recovery helps you recover the vault
password if it's forgotten without compromising security.
- Improved Password Assessment: Password strength is
automatically assessed. If a weak password is detected, it's now
easier to change it to be more complex and difficult to crack.
- Easy to Use: A modern look and feel that's simple to set
up and access the most used features from more locations;
auto-filling and credential saving options appear seamlessly as you
browse the web to provide quick access to accounts.
In addition to Norton Password Manager enhancements, Private
Email is now available in Norton AntiTrack on Windows PCs. Private
Email improves email privacy by masking your personal email
addresses so they're unrecognizable, and removes hidden trackers
often found in sent emails that can be used to gather private,
personally identifiable information, including location, device
usage, interests, and shopping behaviors.
Norton Password Manager is compatible with Windows PC, Mac,
Android, and iOS, and available as a browser extension on Chrome,
Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Safari, as well as browsers from Gen
brands, Norton, Avast and Avira. For more information and to
