What is spyware?

Spyware is software that can record and send through Internet your keystrokes, history, passwords, and other confidential and private information. Spyware is often sold as a spouse monitor, child monitor, a surveillance tool or simply as a tool to spy on users to gain unauthorized access.

How to protect against spyware?

COGECO Security Services have a real-time spyware scanning engine enabled by default combined to Anti-Virus protection. You may also run a separate manual scan for spyware.
