How it works

The first sixty seconds, handled the way a large company handles them.

Detect, check, decide, enforce. A big company pays a security team to run these four steps. On your devices they run on their own, and you are involved in exactly one of them.

1. 1

   Something tries to run

   A download, an email attachment, an installer you were not expecting. We see it the moment it starts.

   It is checked against what we already know

   Known threats are blocked on the spot, with no email and no text. The same intelligence a large company buys, applied before anything reaches you.

   The one decision that is yours

   In a large company this lands on an analyst's screen. Here it comes to you, with the detail already gathered.

   By email as standard. Add text messages in your settings if you would rather have them, and turn them off at any time.

   A program you have never run before

   This is a phishing attempt.

   The link goes to a site pretending to be your bank. It was registered four days ago and no bank uses it.

   Do not enter any details. If you already did, contact the real organization using a number or address you already had, not one from this message.

   A dangerous website, before it loads

   We stopped this page from loading.

   It is a known phishing site. Nothing was sent and nothing was downloaded.

   Enforced everywhere it should reach

   On a personal plan your answer covers every device on the account, including the ones you add later. In a business, an admin's answer covers the fleet and a member's covers their own machine.

If you are busy, do nothing. We block it and tell you why. The safe outcome never depends on you being at your desk.
