Symantec, a provider of security, storage and systems management services, has launched version 3.0 of Norton 360, an all-in-one security system for protecting PCs and online activities.

According to Symantec, the latest version of Norton 360 includes security and performance enhancements that keep your PC protected and running at peak performance, and increased online backup flexibility for safeguarding important files. Norton 360 further extends protection to online activities with the full-featured version of the new website ratings service, Norton Safe Web.

Symantec has said that in addition to technologies like Norton Insight, Norton 360 includes Norton Identity Safe, which securely manages online identities, stores usernames and passwords for convenient online shopping, banking and browsing, and prevents eavesdropping programs such as keyloggers from capturing private information.

Janice Chaffin, group president of consumer business unit at Symantec, said: Norton 360 has become one of Symantec’s most popular consumer offerings in just two years due to the all-in-one convenience it delivers and the solutions value we have built directly into the suite. With version 3.0, we are combining the unmatched performance of our 2009 security products with Norton Safe Web to create even more convenience and value for our customers.
