Viruses, malware, adware, ransomware, trojans, and more. The bottom line is they’re all software that take advantage of your machine in ways you don’t want them to. As smart as computers are, they are designed to rely on you for deciding what is trustworthy software and what isn’t.

We remove viruses thoroughly

You can’t just delete a malicious installer file you downloaded, cleaning an infected computer requires special software such as an antivirus program. Clean Slate Tech inspects your devices with multiple scans to check for adware, bloatware and any other sketchy software hiding on your machine. Additionally, we configure your computer to reduce future infections while maintaining the usability you already had.

Should I get an antivirus software?

Depending on a few key considerations, you may want an antivirus. For smartphones, you don’t need an antivirus. Apple MacOS and Linux computers also don’t need antivirus. For Windows, the built-in protection from Windows Security is fine for most users - just make sure your computer is updated regularly and runs scans in the background. For anyone who feels less confident in their ability to browse safely, it is a good idea to invest in paid protection via one of our recommended services. We are not sponsored by Malwarebytes or Kaspersky but we prefer them over other competitors. Do not use a free antivirus if you can help it, as they will nag you with popups and use your data for profit. It’s also important to remember that cybersecurity is about much more than just having an antivirus safety net; your browsing habits, scammers tricking you into giving them your account logins, and public Wi-Fi snoops are just some examples that an antivirus won’t help you much with. Clean Slate Tech offers consulting that configures your devices and trains you with good habits to keep you safe.
