    AWS VPN are most suited when we have some of our workload in AWS Network. If have so and want to have connectivity to on-prem this is the best in the field.

    I think McAfee is great to have whether it's for work or for personal use. While it has some drawbacks, I like the peace of mind of feeling safe when I'm browsing the web/email, especially when my computer has sensitive/confidential information, knowing that McAfee will immediately detect any threats. The UI is extremely easy to navigate, which makes it easy for users regardless of how tech-savvy they are.

    We have most of our setup in AWS, we selected AWS VPN because it easliy gets integrate with our setup and provide seamless connectivity with our on-prem ecosystem. Compared to the alternative such Azure VPN Gateway and OpenVPN, AWS VPN offers simpler deployement and high availability and native integratioin with other AWS service like CloudWatch, Transit Gateway and other services

    I haven't used Norton for a while, but when I did use it I felt that it slowed down my computer and had constant pop-ups, which were both equally frustrating and annoying. It was also very difficult to remove from my computer. Malwarebytes is a great, straightforward program I've used for virus scanning. It's pretty bare bones but I think if you just want something to scan for viruses it gets the job done quickly and reliably. In my opinion McAfee offers similar benefits as Norton but its more intuitive and doesn't impact system performance.
