Norton has a virtual private network (VPN) to protect all your data, passwords, and other information. The Norton VPN offers crucial protection when you connect to any public Wi-Fi network. It secures the connectivity with a strict “no log” policy. You can browse the internet more securely with a no-log Virtual Private Network (VPN) as it has bank-grade encryption to help keep your information like passwords and bank account details secure and private.

Norton Password Manager enables you to forget the hustle and bustle of various login credentials. It stores usernames, passwords, text notes, contact details, and payment card details using secure 256-bit AES encryption. You need to add an extension to your browser, and then enable it to store the login credentials after creating your Password Vault.

Like most password managers, Norton Password Manager also automatically detects username and password fields as you browse the web. But it won't fill your login details immediately, first, you need to click on the icon inside the password field. Then it will let you, autofill the password.
