Kaspersky Lab Announces Kaspersky ONE

PRESS RELEASE

September 20, 2011 – Woburn, MA - Kaspersky Lab, a leading developer of secure content and threat management solutions, announces Kaspersky ONE, a “Universal Security” solution that ensures comprehensive protection across a wide selection of platforms and devices. Using a single license, you can protect multiple computing devices - desktops, laptops, smartphones[1] and Android-based tablets. No matter what devices you use to get online, all you need is Kaspersky ONE. Kaspersky ONE will be available for purchase in the U.S., United Kingdom, and Ireland on October 17, 2011.

Owning multiple web-connected and portable devices has become commonplace. These days, everyone seems to carry a laptop or tablet in one hand, a smartphone in the other and have a desktop at home. But security for all of these devices is often an afterthought, creating weak links in your personal digital security. Even though these devices use different software and are used for different purposes, they all have quite a lot in common:

they all offer powerful computing and communications capabilities;

they are all Internet-enabled through either wireless connections or cellular networks;

they store large amounts of personal information, including passwords, home addresses, web browsing history, music, photos and much more.

It’s simply not a good idea to leave this valuable information exposed and unprotected against cybercriminals and their malicious software. The fact is it has been a time-consuming and costly chore to maintain security on the many devices we each use every day. Now, with Kaspersky ONE, users can receive the appropriate protection from a trusted leader in personal security without having to purchase multiple products.

Kaspersky ONE is designed to be your universal, one-stop-shop for personal security. With just one license, Kaspersky ONE Universal Security allows you to conveniently secure any combination of your PCs, Macs, Android tablets and smartphones.

For example, with the 5-device Kaspersky ONE, you can protect:

your household desktop, two laptops, and two smartphones;

two tablets, two smartphones, and a Mac;

two laptops, two smartphones, and one tablet.

It’s up to you to mix and match the award-winning security of Kaspersky Lab to meet your protection needs.

Kaspersky One will be available in combinations for three, five and ten devices. It can be used to protect desktop and laptop personal computers running Windows' or Mac OS X', Android, Symbian, Windows Mobile or BlackBerry smartphones, and Android-based tablets. Each of these devices can be protected with Kaspersky ONE, which provides security that is optimized for each device to ensure maximum performance and protection.

Since Kaspersky ONE provides a single universal license that works on all your devices, there is no need to juggle different subscriptions for each device. After Kaspersky ONE has been installed using a single, simple interface, customers have full access to our latest databases of threat information, which updates your Kaspersky Lab software automatically to neutralize emerging malware. Users also have free access to the latest versions of the Kaspersky Lab applications throughout their license period.
