Norton is a world-renowned brand known for providing the best and highly advanced security services and solutions to the customers. The range of different antivirus and security solutions (like Norton Internet Security and Norton Core app) it offers has been tailor-made for consumers and businesses with specific requirements. You can simply install a Norton antivirus on your device (PC or mobile) and ensure its complete protection against all kinds of threats including spyware, malware, Trojan horses and other threats.

The main thing to understand here is that a virus can attack anytime on any device that doesn’t have an antivirus installed on it. Norton keeps this fact in mind and offers you all a wide selection of antivirus solution to protect different aspects, such as browsers, files, and software installed on the device and the most important one, i.e. Network. Network protection is mandatory because any virus attempting to harm your device through the network can affect every device connected to the same network.

To cope with this situation, Norton has brought in Norton Core. This Norton product is a high-performance router with the main purpose of providing endpoint protection to all devices connected to a single network. By using the multi-layer protection, the device ensures that no virus can enter your device through the connected network.

Key features of Norton Core include:

Dual-band support for optimal connection.
High performance and security.
Wave-2 11 ac technology.
Boosts your signal with beam forming.

Norton Core also allows you to set up parental controls in order to limit or control the time your child uses the device. It also helps you set up or define the hours for which your child cannot use the device. In case, you have more than one child then you can even set both the limits differently for the individual child. This is possible because with Norton Core Parental Controls can easily monitor or track the activities of a maximum of 25 people.
