The holiday season presents plenty of “stranger danger” moments for you and your family. The only risk that’s greater than strange people is strange people on the internet, all trying to get ahold of your personal information. And since 2017 saw a 3.5% increase in air travel from Dec. 15 to Jan. 4, you can bet 2018 will be just as busy — with even more opportunities to put your data at risk.

Whether it’s schlepping through airports, snoozing on a Greyhound bus, or simply escaping to a coffee shop to avoid your in-laws, Wi-Fi options this time of year are sketchy at best, leaving many at risk as hackers try to take advantage of vulnerabilities. If you’re not smart about staying safe online, it’s not all that difficult to become a statistic. According to Verizon’s 2018 Breach Investigation, 92% of malware is still sent out by email. Yikes.

Protect yourself against prying eyes and keep those “Nigerian Princes” away from your social security number with a software package from Norton, on sale just in time for the annual holiday rush. 

A subscription to Norton Security Deluxe is currently $34.99, which is $45 off the original $79.99 price and will protect up to five of your devices for one year.

There are few names as trusted in the space when it comes to anti-virus and data protection than Norton, which is why the software routinely tops “best of” lists on both our site and elsewhere. Aside from standard antivirus protection, Security Deluxe will also safeguard you from ransomware, spyware, malware, and harmful websites that could infect your device. It also protects your personal and financial data from potential hacks thanks to its Smart Firewall and the password manager.

Now the only thing you’ll need to worry about is whether you’ll be able to snag the window seat.
