Australians lost $2.03 billion to scams last year, according to the National Anti-Scam Centre. You don’t need me to tell you that’s an obscene amount of money.
So many of these losses come from dodgy text messages and emails that trick vulnerable people into handing over sensitive data. Because scams have become increasingly harder to detect, companies like Norton employ various technologies to detect them before they do any harm.
As we pointed out when we reviewed Norton’s 360 Platinum subscription recently, the company’s software detects fake websites, monitors social media, and keeps an eye on your bank accounts.
There are a few clever ways it does this, including the ability to upload screenshots to the Norton Genie app. It uses AI to determine whether something is a scam, stopping you from making any cybersecurity mistakes. You can see how it works via GadgetGuy‘s latest YouTube video.
