ESET Smart Security Premium 18.0.11.0

Redesigned user interface

The user interface in this version has been significantly redesigned and simplified based on the results of usability testing. All GUI wording and notifications have been carefully reviewed and the interface now provides support for right-to-left languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. Online Help is now integrated into ESET Smart Security Premium and offers dynamically updated support content.

Dark mode

An extension that helps you quickly switch the screen to a dark color scheme. You can choose your preferred color scheme in User interface elements.

Antivirus and antispyware

Proactively detects and cleans more known and unknown viruses, worms, trojans and rootkits. Advanced heuristics flags even never-before-seen malware, protecting you from unknown threats and neutralizing them before they can do any harm. Web access protection and Anti-Phishing protection monitors communication between web browsers and remote servers (including SSL). Email client protection provides control of email communication received through the POP3(S) and IMAP(S) protocols.
