NordVPN’s integrated cybersec(alternative for malwarebytes)

cybersec is a network level security feature that comes with nordvpn. a NordVPN user will be able to receive full protection from annoying ads, malware or phishing attacks, and other threats.

as this is cyber security at network level which i think is better than system level. literally, it means that the vpn server at nordvpn server end will scan for malicious activity and stop them from attacking your computers. malwarebytes can kiss my arse goodbye but if their vpn servers are really secured, that is my doubt. they claimed to have not leaked ip data but from my deduction so far, i think their servers are still prone to identity crisis.

CyberSec performs a triple function:

1. It blocks intrusive adsthrough integrated ad blocker that prevents ads from loading right before you enter any website.
2. It defends against malware.CyberSec constantly checks suspicious websites against blocking lists. When a user is accidentally lured into a phishing or a malware-hosting site, NordVPN reacts immediately and blocks the dangerous action.
3. It prevents the device from participating in DDoS attacks even if it’s already infected with malware. It will cut any communications between the compromised asset and the botnet’s controllers, at the same time securing your internet traffic and resources.
