I like picking up practical deals during big sale periods. So, with Amazon Prime Big Deal Days lasting until 11:59pm PT tonight, I’ve been hunting for bargains on less splashy items—like security software. Turns out, you can save as much as 70 percent on several of our top picks for antivirus and password managers right now.
One big standout: Norton Deluxe 360, our current top pick for antivirus, is an all-in-one security suite that includes a basic password manager and VPN service as part of the subscription. On Amazon right now, you can grab a 1-year, 5-device Norton Deluxe 360 subscription for $20—or 70 percent off the list price. (Need more devices? A 1-year Norton Premium 360 plan, which supports 10 devices, is on sale for $30.)

Alternatively, if you want only top-notch independent antivirus, you can pick up a 2-year, 10-device AVG Ultimate subscription for $30.

As for password managers, you can ditch limited free options in favor of 1-year subscriptions that cost less than going out for lunch. On the password manager side, NordPass’s Personal subscription is just $38 for 27 months, and Keeper’s Personal plan is currently $20 for 1 year.

Why bother with independent software when Windows Security is built into your PC and you can use Google, Apple, or Microsoft’s free password managers? In addition to security suites like Norton Deluxe 360 offering extras like password managers and VPNs, third-party AV software makes antivirus features and settings much more accessible and understandable. And paid password managers offer a fuller range of features, plus let you hop between any device without worrying that your passwords or passkeys are trapped in a different ecosystem.
Saving 70 percent on less exciting stuff like security software is a smart move—and it’s not the only “boring” tech you can find big discounts on right now!
