Full description

A higher standard of cyber security. Cyber Threat Protect is our most powerful layer of digital defence, safeguarding your devices in real time – and we’re the only major broadband provider to offer this level of security as standard with your broadband package. Powered by Norton, it’s available on up to 15 devices and it delivers comprehensive, intelligently designed protection across your connected life. It includes real-time protection against ransomware, viruses, spyware, malware and other online threats, keeping your devices safe. Features: • Multi-device anti-virus protection - protect up to 15 devices • Protect against scams with Scam Assistant – check suspicious messages, links or QR codes instantly • Keep your personal data secure with Dark Web Monitoring – protect up to 52 pieces of your personal data and we’ll let you know if it shows up where it shouldn’t • Browse safely with Safe Web - stay safe from threats while browsing, banking and using social media • Social Media Monitoring – link your social media accounts and we’ll tell you about suspicious activity or if you’ve been hacked • Store and create strong passwords with Norton Password Manager – store and autofill passwords securely across your devices All you have to do is download the app and sign-in with your BT ID. Cyber Threat Protect uses the Android AccessibilityService API to help protect you against scams and malicious apps. With your permission, the app can monitor on-screen content and interactions to detect phishing pages, fake overlays and other suspicious behavior, and then warn you or block the threat. The AccessibilityService is used only to provide these security and fraud-prevention features and does not use accessibility data for advertising or marketing purposes.

What's new

This update fixes a crash some users experienced with Dark Web Monitoring and corrects the name of the app on the home screen.
