Intego ONE Complete has launched the Intego ONE: VPN & Wi-Fi Security app for iPhone, available at no extra charge to Complete subscribers. The app provides VPN protection, Wi-Fi security assessments, and checks on built-in iPhone security settings but does not function as antivirus software. It enhances existing Apple security measures by addressing vulnerabilities related to insecure Wi-Fi connections and unprotected internet access. The app is accessible to both new and existing subscribers, and Intego is currently offering a 50% discount on subscriptions until September 30, 2026. Intego ONE is available in three tiers: Essential, Advanced, and Complete, with the Complete tier including the new iPhone app. The app features a VPN that encrypts internet connections on public Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi security checks, and assessments of iPhone security settings. While traditional viruses are rare on iPhones, threats like spyware and exploits still exist. The app does not replace Apple's malware protection but complements it. Intego ONE Complete is recommended for Mac and iPhone owners, particularly those who travel frequently or connect to public Wi-Fi. The pricing includes various deals, with a 50% discount currently available and a subsequent 35% discount after the promotional period.

Iran has introduced its second domestically developed antivirus software, Ayyza, which utilizes artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect known and unknown cyber threats. The antivirus is designed to protect against malware, viruses, Trojans, ransomware, and advanced persistent threats (APTs). Ayyza's detection engine is developed in-house and operates at the Windows kernel level to enhance detection accuracy and speed while minimizing hardware resource consumption. It can receive updates offline or via Iran’s National Information Network. Ayyza's machine-learning capabilities allow it to identify emerging threats, including previously unknown malware and zero-day vulnerabilities. The company has also created complementary security tools, such as privileged access management (PAM) systems and data leakage prevention tools, to enhance overall cybersecurity. The company's products are currently used in various Iranian infrastructures, including banking, financial, and governmental systems.
