“Multi-Layer Protection Against Online Scams and Frauds”
My overall experience with defencebyte privacy shield software is pretty good till date. Being a data analyst, the safety of data is what all matters for me and at no cost, I can take the risk of putting the client’s data in danger. Therefore, I downloaded this top-notch software so that my data is guarded against the snooping eyes. This software takes care of all my valuable data, even if it is some documents which are accessible online or my important files which are stored on the system. I can confidently say, it offers comprehensive protection to my system and network. It assures that there are no loop-holes and my data is sheltered 24/7 and that too without a miss.
Pros
I’m pretty impressed by its file shredder feature, and also I got stunned when it deleted all my chat records. Undoubtedly, I can say it works wonderfully when it comes to removing file history and internet browsing history. It comprises of tons of cutting-edge technological features, and all of them are hi-end and easy to use. In the dark world, this software acts as a guardian angel as every single day; it keeps my client’s confidential data safe and secure. Moreover, when it comes to ease of use, then I can assuredly say even beginner’s like me can operate this software easily. Furthermore, it hardly takes a few minutes for the installation and also without any help, I was able to set-up and run a scan on my own. In addition, some of the pros of the defencebyte Privacy Shield software are: (1) It removes traces of all the recently used files’ records and apps. (2) Deletes every online browsing activity securely. (3) It wipes all the track records from the browser. (4) It deletes all exposed files and sensitive information.
Cons
What I like least about this defencebyte Privacy Shield Software is: (1) Its password protection feature needs more refinement since it is not that great at defending. (2) One of the shortcomings of this software is it completely destroys the data and doesn’t keep it in a safe place for the future reference. (3) Without my prior permission, it deleted my important chats that were with clients. (4) It keeps on sending exasperating messages which informs that your computer is protected.

Pure Junk
I ended up purchasing another program for my daily use and uninstalled this one within a couple days of installing it.
Pros
I really cant find anything I liked about the software other than it had an overall nice and clean look to it on screen.
Cons
It truly might as well not exist, It did none of what it says it will do and I witnessed no change in the amount of Spam I got and no defense against the spam.

“Award-Winning Identity & Data Protection Software”
My Overall Experience with Defencebyte is excellent since it offers all-inclusive defense from the malicious elements present. I personally find customization feature fantastic as defencebyte provides various tools to select options according to my preferences. Moreover, it got me rid of the apprehensions of performing manual tasks as it provides automatic cleaning and scan scheduling.
Pros
I like the way this software keeps my identity and data guarded against all sorts of digital catastrophes. It proficiently keeps my data protected from the reach of unauthorized users like cybercriminals/scammers/fraudsters. Defencebyte Privacy shield software keeps everything out of the risk and offers exceptional protection. On top of everything, I’m pretty impressed with its interface. Within 10 minutes it got deployed in my Windows laptop, and I must say it is lightweight as well. To name a few of the pros of this first-class software: (1) It wipes off all the digital footprints. (2) It removes both offline and online web browsing activities. (3) It even removes all the chats archives and cookie data.
Cons
What I like least about this software is: (1) It doesn’t ask for permissions, whether to remove or clean my data or not. (2) The privacy shield software is not compatible with my other MacBook laptop. (3) It sometimes sends me pop-ups of pointless warning signals.

Don't use in an educational setting
Overall pick it up and throw it out leave it to die.
Pros
It might work perfectly fine in a private home situation but this should never be used professionally.
Cons
I can safely safe there's nothing about this to like. Hackers will get through.
