Comes with 50 GB of Cloud backup and storage space to protect important files and documents to avoid data loss

Nearly 25-year partnership furthers ongoing solutions to help keep consumer devices secure

MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA – June 17, 2019 — /BackupReview.info/ — Norton™ LifeLock™, Symantec’s (NASDAQ: SYMC) consumer cyber safety brand, today announced that Norton 360 Deluxe is now available for download in the Microsoft Store. Norton 360 Deluxe provides consumers with important cyber safety features and helps protect their personal information and data1. Available for both Windows 10 and Windows 10 in S mode (Windows 10S), Norton 360 Deluxe is the first paid comprehensive cyber safety product to launch in the Microsoft Store.

As an early adopter and supporter of Microsoft technologies, Norton LifeLock has partnered with Microsoft for nearly 25 years to create solutions that have been used to help secure, manage and assure the availability of millions of desktops, laptops and servers running Microsoft Windows and other Microsoft applications.

“Over the years, we have developed over 200 applications to-date that run on the Windows platform,” says Samir Kapuria, executive vice president and general manager, Consumer Cyber Safety, Symantec. “We look forward to evolving our solutions with Microsoft and forging the path for protection and security solutions across their ecosystem.”

“It’s great to have Symantec, a valued security partner, delivering another protection option for Windows 10 customers via the Microsoft Store,” said Darin Fish, Partner Group Program Manager, Microsoft.

Given that Windows 10S only allows apps from the Microsoft Store, Windows 10S users now have the option to use a trusted, third-party cyber safety provider to help protect their device from cyber threats and maintain online privacy. Should Norton 360 Deluxe subscribers want to protect additional devices, their subscription can be applied to up to five Windows, Mac, Android or iOS devices.
