Phishing Shield
The Phishing Shield identifies and blocks fake websites that trick you into entering your personal information. As you browse, URLs are evaluated in real time for phishing risk. Analysis includes looking at page content, domain reputation and numerous other factors.
The Phishing Shield is on by default. We recommend you leave it on for maximum protection.
Realtime Shield
The Realtime Shield blocks threats that are listed in the Webroot® Intelligence Network and in our community database. If the shield identifies a known threat, it immediately blocks and quarantines the item before it causes damage to your computer or steals your information. If it detects a suspicious file, SecureAnywhere opens an alert and prompts you to block or allow the item.
By default, the Realtime Shield will be on and pre-configured with the recommended settings.
To adjust settings, click Advanced Settings in the upper right corner of the home screen, then click Shields. Detailed shield definitions can be found in the User Guide.
Firewall/Web Shield
The Firewall monitors data traffic traveling out of your computer. It looks for untrusted processes that try to connect to the Internet and steal your personal information. The Web Shield alerts you to websites that may pose a threat as you browse. Likewise, when you use a search engine, the Web Shield analyzes the search results and displays an image next to each link, letting you know whether it's a trusted site or a potential risk. By working along with the Windows firewall, your network has both inbound and outbound protection.
From the main screen, both Firewall and Web Shield can be accessed under PC Security, and will be on and pre-configured with the recommended settings.
To adjust settings, click Advanced Settings in the upper right corner of the home screen, then click Firewall.
Quarantine
Once items are moved to the Quarantine, they are disabled and cannot harm your computer. However, you may want to delete or restore quarantined items in some circumstances:
- If you want to conserve disk space, you can delete items permanently
- You cannot restore items once permanently deleted from quarantine
- If a program is not working correctly without a quarantined item, you may choose to restore it
To view the quarantine, click the gear icon next to PC Security, then click Quarantine. If you have files in the Quarantine, you can select a file and click either Delete Permanently or Restore.
To view the quarantine, click the gear icon next to PC Security, then click Quarantine.
