NETGEAR Armor Plus: Advanced cybersecurity for home networks and on the go

The threat situation in the area of cyber security is becoming increasingly acute. According to the “2024 IoT Security Landscape Report” by NETGEAR and Bitdefender, home networks are exposed to an average of ten attacks per day. While many routers have basic security features, the protection often does not extend to the multitude of networked devices such as smart TVs, voice assistants or surveillance cameras. NETGEAR Armor offers a comprehensive security solution that extends to Orbi Mesh systems and Nighthawk routers and now offers an advanced layer of protection with Armor Plus.

Key features at a glance:

  • Unlimited VPN for up to 50 devices for protection on public and unknown networks
  • Adblocking and anti-tracking for more privacy and better internet performance
  • Advanced network protection with AI-powered scans and real-time threat detection
  • Cross-device protection for Windows, Mac, iOS and Android

A new level of network security

NETGEAR Armor is a subscription-based cybersecurity service that improves the security of the entire home network. Unlike traditional router security features, Armor continuously scans all connected devices for vulnerabilities and potential attacks. It not only monitors computers and smartphones, but also IoT devices such as smart thermostats or surveillance cameras.

The ease of use is particularly noteworthy: users receive detailed security reports, recommendations for risk minimization and an overview of blocked threats via the Orbi and Nighthawk apps. This ensures transparency and makes it easier to close security gaps in your own network.

Armor Plus: Additional features for more privacy and performance

With the new Armor Plus variant, NETGEAR is expanding its security offering with powerful functions that are specifically aimed at users who expect the highest security standards. Particularly noteworthy is the unlimited VPN service, which protects up to 50 devices from unwanted access, especially in insecure public networks.

In addition, Armor Plus:

  • Adblocking to reduce intrusive advertising
  • Anti-tracking technologies to increase digital privacy
  • Detection of malicious websites and scams that could compromise users through phishing or malware

These features not only ensure greater security, but also improved internet speed as unwanted ads and trackers no longer drain bandwidth.

Price and availability

The annual subscription for NETGEAR Armor Plus costs €149.99, which is less than €12.50 per month. The basic version of Armor remains available for €99.99 per year.

NETGEAR Armor Plus offers an effective, cost-efficient solution for anyone looking to comprehensively secure their home network and devices. With the increasing number of cyber threats, a solution like this is an important step towards digital security.
