HELSINKI (May 7th, 2025) – Global consumer cyber security leader F-Secure takes a significant stride in its mission to become the world’s #1 scam protection provider with the launch of its standalone F-Secure Scam Protection product. Following the launch of the Scam Protection module as part of F‑Secure Total last year, F‑Secure is now making these award-winning features available as an affordable, standalone product. This offers consumers greater flexibility and access in the face of rising online scams.

Increased Momentum Towards Scam Protection Leadership
F-Secure is trusted by more than 30 million people worldwide, reflecting over 35 years dedicated to protecting individuals' devices, privacy, identities, and online lives.
