Norton 360 Deluxe carries the most features of any plan here. For 5 PCs, Macs, tablets or phones it bundles antivirus, malware, ransomware and hacking protection with Scam Protection, Deepfake Protection, a VPN, a password manager, 50 GB of PC cloud backup, Dark Web Monitoring, Privacy Monitor and Parental Control. Norton backs it with its 100% Virus Protection Promise. That breadth is why it scores highest on capabilities. The cost pulls it down: the U.S. product page lists Deluxe at $119.99 for the first year, against $59.99 for Bitdefender's 5-device suite, and the cheapest Norton option, AntiVirus Plus, is $59.99 for a single device. LifeLock identity protection sits on higher tiers. Households that would otherwise pay separately for a VPN, cloud backup and parental controls can still come out ahead, but people who only want malware protection should look further down the list.
