How can I protect my computer from viruses?

Computers catch viruses in many ways, primarily by execution of a program containing a virus. As a user, you are responsible for taking precautions to protect your device from viruses.

Our Smart WiFi, powered by Plume, includes online device protection features. This means that all connected devices are protected from infection or attack by malware, spyware, ransomware, botnet servers and phishing.

Smart WiFi also blocks attacks from spreading. Should a device be infected by a virus, Smart WiFi will quarantine the device to prevent the spread of malware to other devices through your network.

Learn more about how Smart WiFi protects your home on our Plume Support page.
