SAFE is an internet security suite that you can install on your computer, smart­phone, or tablet. It comes with a wide range of features and works silently in the back­ground without slowing down your device.

Virus protection protects your device from programs that may steal personal information, damage your device, or use it for illegal purposes. By default, Virus protection handles all harmful files as soon as it finds them so that they can cause no harm. The soft­ware automatically scans your local hard drives, any removable media (such as portable drives or DVDs), and any content that you download.

Browsing protection helps you browse the internet safely by providing safety ratings for web­sites on your browser and blocking access to web­sites that have been rated harmful.

Banking protection adds another layer of security to prevent attackers from interfering with your confidential trans­actions and protects you against harmful activity when you access your online bank or make trans­actions online.

SAFE also comes with Parental control, which you can use to control when and for how long your child can use the device. On smart­phones and tablets, you can use the Parental control feature to block web­sites that contain inappropriate content.

Windows 7 SP1 (support ends in August 2023), Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows 11, macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or later, iOS 14 or later, Android 8.0 or later. ARM-based tablets are not supported.

The easiest way to renew your SAFE subscription is by logging in to My F‑Secure. After logging in, click the Renew now button in the upper right corner and continue to check­out. Your sub­scription is renewed based on your original sub­scription (license period and number of devices). If you would like to increase the number of devices in your sub­scription, first renew your sub­scription, then click Buy more in your My F‑Secure account to purchase more licenses.

To protect additional devices, log in to My F‑Secure with your account user­name and pass­word. Select Add device and follow the instructions on the screen. You can find more detailed step-by-step instructions in the SAFE online help.

When you have renewed, SAFE will automatically update your device to the new subscription. If your SAFE program shows expired, it is likely that you have either made the purchase outside your My F‑Secure account or made the purchase with a completely different account. You can follow our Community instructions on how to make sure you’ll have protection on your device.
