Security Made Simple
Powered by state-of-the-art encryption protocols and advanced
threat detection mechanisms, NETGEAR routers stand as the first
line of defense against evolving cyber threats and include key
security features such as automatic firmware updates, VPN support,
cutting-edge WPA3 security, access control, and guest and IoT WiFi
network options.
The Orbi 870 series also includes NETGEAR’s exclusive Advanced
Router Protection feature. This feature helps protect the router
from threats using a combination of AI heuristics and advanced
exploit prevention to help recognize and block exploitation
attempts. Additionally, it enables the ability to quickly deploy
live patches for threats, bypassing the need to wait for a new
firmware release. This rapid response mechanism significantly
reduces the time it takes to address security issues, reinforcing
NETGEAR’s position as a leader in delivering cutting-edge security
across its router and mesh product portfolio.
For added protection, the Orbi 870 series includes a 30-day
trial of NETGEAR Armor™ Powered by Bitdefender™, which provides an
additional automatic shield of security for connected devices and
added privacy with VPN. Unlike traditional endpoint antivirus
products, Armor is available on the router as an even further
enhanced security solution, helping to protect computers, security
cameras, baby monitors and other IoT devices on the network.
The 870 series also comes with NETGEAR Smart Parental Controls™
to easily manage kids’ time online across their connected devices
and promote good online habits for the family. Basic features are
available free of charge. A subscription fee applies for a Premium
Plan.
