Original License Guaranteed by Licensel.com

Available for 1, 3, 5 or more devices and in different durations: select the variant you need among those on this page.

McAfee Antivirus Plus is the essential protection in the McAfee range: real-time antivirus, ransomware defence, safe browsing and firewall, also available in an unlimited devices version. It is the choice of anyone wanting to secure computers, smartphones and tablets without accessory features. The license is annual and is delivered by email with the activation code.

Why choose McAfee Antivirus Plus

McAfee is one of the long-established names in computer security and its consumer range is organised in increasing levels: it starts with protecting the device and reaches as far as protecting the person's identity. Choosing the right edition means understanding how far you want to go.

Antivirus Plus stops at the basic level and does not include a password manager, parental controls, VPN or identity monitoring. It is the right choice for anyone already using other tools to manage credentials or browsing almost always from trusted home networks, who simply wants solid defence against malware and dangerous sites.

What McAfee Antivirus Plus is and what it is for

McAfee Antivirus Plus protects the device on three fronts: the antivirus engine scans files and downloads in real time, web protection flags dangerous links before they are opened and the firewall controls network connections, blocking unauthorised access attempts.

The license is multi-platform and covers Windows and Mac computers, Android and iOS smartphones and tablets. In the unlimited devices variants the same license protects all the family's equipment with no activations to count, a convenient solution when a household has several computers and phones.

Key features

• Real-time antivirus
