Five Security Tools that F-Secure Offers for Free
The nice Finns at F-Secure have several paid security tools to offer. With Freedome, you are safe, invisible and untrackable on the web. With F-Secure Anti-Virus, you’re protected against viruses, spyware and other malware. And with F-Secure Internet Security, you’re protected against a long list of threats.
If you can’t or don’t want to spend money on security software, you don’t have to. F-Secure has several security tools to offer, tools that won’t cost you a thing.
1. F-Secure Online Scanner finds, removes threats from your PC
If your computer is unusually slow, if ads and pop-ups show up out of nowhere, it could mean that your PC has been infected. How can you make sure? Why, by scanning your PC of course. You can do that for free with the aptly named F-Secure Online Scanner. It’s capable of detecting and removing various harmful items you’re your PC, like viruses, malware, spyware and Trojans. It works with any Windows edition and it works even if you have another security software installed on your PC.

2. F-Secure Key generates strong passwords, securely stores your passwords
It’s never a good idea to use weak passwords. And using a strong password over and over again for all your accounts isn’t a good idea either. If you need help to manage your passwords, give F-Secure Key a try. This password manager can create secure passwords, securely store all your passwords, and automatically fill in passwords fields so you can log into your accounts as quickly as possible.
F-Secure Key uses military grade encryption to store your passwords and credentials. You can use this password manager on your PC, on your Mac, and on your iOS or Android.

4. F-Secure Booster cleans your PC or Android
F-Secure Booster is a tune-up tool that promises to maximize your device’s performance by: removing all the junk that wastes storage space; closing unnecessary processes that drain the battery; optimizing various system settings; getting the latest software and driver updates; erasing the digital traces you leave behind and securely deleting your files.
“Even though computers and phones are often called smart devices, they do fairly little maintenance on their own, which reduces their effective lifespan significantly”, said F-Secure’s Antero Norkio, Director, Device Security. “Our devices are actually built to be better than ever, and offer more than enough power and features to work for a number of years. But when people notice they don’t work so well after a while, they think it’s time for an upgrade. In reality, they just need a little tune-up to get them purring like new.”
F-Secure Booster, just like F-Secure Key, is available as a Free and as a Premium version. The free version puts the following 2 features at your disposal: clean your device, boost battery life.
