Why you should buy Norton 360 Premium

Norton makes some of the best antivirus software around and has done so for many years. With Norton 360 Premium, you get a lot of protection and more so than just antivirus, thanks to security issues evolving over the years.

At its heart, Norton 360 Premium provides real-time threat protection. Its advanced security protects against existing and emerging malware threats which include ransomware and viruses. It goes further still by adding a secure VPN. A VPN is a layer of defense between you and what you’re browsing so that no one can track what you’re looking at. It’s particularly ideal when using public Wi-Fi which can be insecure. It adds bank-grade encryption to help you keep information like passwords and your bank details safe and secure.

Want even more? Norton 360 Premium has got it. It also provides Dark Web monitoring so that Norton will inform you if it finds your personal information on the Dark Web. Additionally, it comes with a password manager tool so you can easily create complex passwords that are tough to crack. Other features include parental controls as well as a smart firewall for blocking unauthorized traffic. There’s also PC safe cam which gives you a heads-up if it turns out something is trying to access your webcam against your wishes.

Norton 360 Premium is a truly well-rounded experience right down to its 75GB of cloud backup and, of course, the ability to cover up to 10 devices. Usually priced at $100, Norton 360 Premium is down to $30 for a limited time only at Best Buy. This is the ideal time to keep more secure online for less.

Adobe is making PDF attachments much less annoying in WhatsApp. Its new Acrobat integration lets you open a PDF and mark it up without downloading the file or leaving the conversation.

The feature is available today through WhatsApp Web and the Windows app. The headline comes with an important caveat, though. This isn’t full PDF editing. You can review and annotate a document, but you can’t rewrite its original text or rearrange the layout.

China’s AI talent shortage has tech giants recruiting teenagers
Forget campus recruiting, china's biggest tech firms are betting on teenage coders.
Artificial Intelligence

A 13-year-old boy in Hangzhou has already won national AI competitions and built a following of more than 136,000 people online, all while his dad tries to figure out how to guide him through a field that barely existed when he himself was growing up. That family's situation, first reported by Rest of World, says a lot about where China's tech industry is heading right now.

Companies used to wait for graduates to walk through the door. Now they're reaching further back, first to undergrads, and increasingly to teenagers, hoping to spot rare talent before anyone else gets to them.
