McAfee Unveils McAfee+, A New Product Line with Distinctive Privacy and Identity Protections to Help Users Secure Their Personal Data

All-new bundle features include identity restoration via restoration experts and lost wallet assistance, plus, Chrome OS support

SAN JOSE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–McAfee Corp., a global leader in online protection, has today announced the launch of McAfee+ in the Netherlands, a new product line including comprehensive privacy and identity protections that enable users to confidently and securely live life online.

Following its launch in the U.S., the new McAfee+ product suite is now available in the Netherlands and allows users access to identity restoration and lost wallet assistance, as well as the ability to secure all their devices with award-winning protection against threats and viruses. As part of the new product line announcement, McAfee also introduced protection for Chromebooks, with antivirus, VPN, safe browsing, and identity monitoring for Chrome OS users.

According to McAfee’s 2022 Consumer Research, 75% of consumers are concerned that their financial information is compromised. Meanwhile, 76% worry their identity might be stolen from an online transaction and 70% are concerned their information ends up on the dark web. Created to address growing consumer privacy and identity theft concerns and deliver comprehensive support and peace of mind, McAfee+ is available in the Netherlands starting at €44.95 for the first year.

McAfee+ was purpose-built to provide online protection that includes proactive monitoring of the dark web for personal information, and the integration of McAfee’s acclaimed antivirus protection and Secure VPN. To bolster identity theft protection, McAfee+ Advanced includes expert assistance for identity restoration in cases of identity theft and lost wallet support.

“We’re spending more and more of our time online for work, education, social media, banking and communications to family and friends and with that comes risk of cybercriminals looking to land malware in our devices, steal identities, access private information and more,” said Vonny Gamot, Head of EMEA, McAfee. “McAfee+ is designed to deliver against those trends and threats, by helping users be more protected against identity breaches to minimize future threats.”

“McAfee is in the business of protecting people, not just devices,” said Greg Johnson, President and Chief Executive Officer, McAfee. “McAfee+ reflects that spirit by offering a simple, effortless way to protect yourself, your loved ones, and your data. We are proud to introduce it to our product line-up so that more people can confidently experience life online.”
