Protect Your Home Network In Real Time

Your home’s internet network is a vital hub for entertainment, work and communication. But, as connectivity increases, so does the need for security. That’s where the Guard feature on the HomePass® app comes in, offering real-time online protection for all your connected devices. Guard shields your home network from threats, providing peace-of-mind so you can browse and stream safely.

Real-Time Protection from Malicious Threats

Guard uses advanced technology to monitor and block the most common types of online threats in real-time, including:

Ransomware: Guard prevents malicious software that could lock your files until a ransom is paid.

Crypto-mining: Guard blocks unauthorized resource-sapping crypto-mining that can slow down your devices.

Malware: Guard automatically detects and blocks harmful software that could damage or steal your data

These protections work around the clock, allowing you to use your home network without worrying about hidden dangers lurking online.

Guard is packed with high performance, cloud-based and enterprise-grade cyber-security features, which are continually being upgraded.

Remote Access Protection

As the number of smart devices in homes continues to grow, keeping them securely connected is essential. Guard blocks incoming remote connections to smart home devices, like smart thermostats or security cameras, until you manually authorize them. This added layer of protection prevents unauthorized access from hackers, allowing only recognized people to have control over your devices.

In-Depth Reporting on Guard Events

Guard offers detailed reports on all security events across every connected device in your home. With easy-to-understand data on threats that were blocked or devices that tried to access your network, you’ll stay informed about the security of your digital environment. Whether you want to dive deep into the specifics or just get an overview, Guard fully explains your network’s health and security status.

Ad Blocking for a Safer Browsing Experience

Not all ads are safe—some are designed to trick users or expose your devices to harmful content. Guard includes a built-in ad-blocking feature that filters out online ads. It lets you securely access the content you want to see, without all the distracting ads. It also prevents pop-ups that slow down page loads and buries hidden threats in formatting. By reducing exposure to these potential risks, you enjoy a cleaner, faster online experience free from the threat of malicious advertising.

Personalized Safety

A new feature lets you add, name and categorize devices directly within the HomePass® app. This automatic device typing process makes organization and management of network-based devices much easier, and provides real-time information on connectivity and usage.
