Access important features from your Norton product main window on Mac

Applicable for: Mac

Norton protects your Mac in the following ways:

  • Defends against viruses, spyware, malware, phishing, trojan horses and other online threats.

  • Helps protect your private and financial information when you go online.

  • Utilizes one of the largest global civilian intelligence networks to spot threats faster.

When you launch Norton on your Mac, you can access important features by clicking the tiles in the main window:

  • Security

    Make sure that your device is protected and fix issues if your computer is at risk or needs attention. With most Norton subscriptions, you can also add devices to your Norton account if you have seats remaining in your account.

  • Scans

    Run a Quick Scan, Full Scan, or File Scan to check for threats on your device and schedule scans. For more information, see Run Norton scans to check for threats on Mac

  • LiveUpdate

    Check that you have the latest protection from threats as well as feature and performance enhancements. For more information, see Run LiveUpdate to keep Norton up to date on Mac

  • Advanced

    View and change settings for your desktop and online activities. For most users, the default settings provide the right level of protection, but you can customize security and network settings.

  • Clean

    Run scans to remove a range of junk files that can slow your computer down. For more information, see Run Norton Clean to remove files that can slow down your Mac
