TotalWebShield

TotalAV Safe Browsing VPN comes bundled with the Internet Security and Total Security plans, and you cannot buy it separately. Total AV offers various additional features, including a VPN, Ad Blocker, Password Vault, Browser Cleaner, and System Tune-up. This allows you to clear up memory occupied by duplicate and burst photos. If you are using Android, you have more flexibility, including protection against mobile malware, which is more common than you might think.

Privacy and encryption

TotalAV Safe Browsing VPN incorporates standard security features commonly found in the VPN industry:

• 256-bit AES encryption: This level of encryption is robust and is commonly used by banks and militaries for secure communication.
• No-logs policy: TotalAV does not retain records of your online activities, ensuring privacy by not logging the websites you visit or files you download.
• Kill switch: An added layer of security, the kill switch automatically disconnects you from the internet if your VPN connection drops, preventing accidental data leaks. It's important to note that this feature is exclusive to the Windows app.
• VPN protocols: TotalAV provides access to two VPN protocols, namely IKEv2/IPSec and OpenVPN. Both are known for their speed and security. However, it doesn't support the WireGuard protocol, which is renowned for its super-fast speeds and robust security.

While TotalAV Safe Browsing VPN excels in fundamental security aspects, it lacks some additional features commonly found in other VPN providers, such as split tunneling (allowing you to choose specific apps or sites to use the VPN) or obfuscation, which conceals your VPN traffic.
