Despite the fact that it is a program that monitors work at all times, I have not felt that it violates my privacy and hinders my work or makes it impossible for me to do so. For this and because it looks phenomenal when acting, I give it a 9 and I recommend the final consumer to try it to give an extra barrier to checking their emails in detection of extra malware that their antivirus does not do.

  • I'm not sure VirusTotal can improve this themselves but just keeping up with the evolving "known" threat landscape is tough so even though VirusTotal is very good, nothing is 100% effective in this space.

more than against them is to complement secure solution adding one more layer to filter more threats with NordLayer connection secure gateways on internet !!!
