Panda Security has unveiled its 2016 consumer range, including Panda Free Antivirus 2016, Panda Antivirus Pro 2016 ($43.99), Panda Internet Security 2016 ($54.99), Panda Global Protection 2016 ($76.99) and Panda Gold Security 2016 ($98.99)

All editions come with a new engine and make better use of Panda’s Collective Intelligence, which the company says now provides greater protection with less impact on performance.

Antivirus Pro 2016 and higher editions offer more wi-fi protection, including audits to uncover potential vulnerabilities, and tools to detect and block intruders.

Panda Internet Security 2016 offers solid protection and plenty of features for a reasonable price

The suites have a Data Shield to prevent confidential information leaving your system; Panda Global and Gold Protection can protect files to ensure no-one else gets access to them, and all editions are packaged in a mildly revamped interface.

If you’re looking to change antivirus, Panda is definitely worth considering. The company is loved by the independent testing labs, and is top-ranked in AV-Comparative’s latest Real-World Protection Test.

You don’t need to spend any money to get that protection, of course – AV-Comparatives tests the free edition – but Internet Security 2016, in particular, offers plenty of extra functionality for a reasonable price.

Panda Free Antivirus 2016, Panda Antivirus Pro 2016, Panda Internet Security 2016, Panda Global Protection 2016 and Panda Gold Security 2016 are available now for Windows XP and later.
