Kaspersky Internet Security is an upgrade from the standard Kaspersky Anti-Virus security software. The Internet Security suite provides you with protection from viruses, spyware and malware, along with a number of additional security features and tools to improve the performance of your computer. Features include protection from hackers, identity thieves and email spam.

Kaspersky Internet Security also provides a number of ways for you to monitor your computer and gives you the ability to do network scans and see which programs and applications are running on your computer. The program now also offers parental control features so that you can monitor and restrict Internet surfing on your computer. Further, this version of Kaspersky has a program Sandbox that allows you to run programs and check for malware or viruses before you run them on your computer. If a program is not safe, it is quarantined or deleted, keeping your computer safe from a number of threats.

In addition to providing security for your computer and operating system, Kaspersky Internet Security also has a number of tools that help you monitor the efficiency of your computer system and improve its speed. You also have the ability to scan for security vulnerabilities on your computer, and you can create data backups of your files and programs. Additionally, with Kaspersky Internet Security, you have the ability to connect to the Kaspersky Security Network, which improves the program's ability to detect and repair security problems.

As with other security suites, you can schedule times for Kaspersky Internet Security to update your virus and spyware definitions and run scans on your computer. You can also automate what the program does when it finds a problem, such as fixing the problem, quarantining or deleting the file.
