It’s actually a firewall that does an excellent job at stopping many types of security threats at your network’s gateway (the modem/router combo box that you’re renting from Comcast) and preventing them from ever reaching your computer and any other connected devices. ![]() Why? Because Xfinity xFi Advanced Security isn’t an antivirus program. The short answer to your question is yes, you do still need to run an antivirus app on your PC (and on your Android devices as well). And truth be told, there are lots of other Comcast customers wondering the same thing. Rick’s answer: That’s a great question, Mike. ![]() I am thinking of adding one of the free security programs you recommend but I also worry about having two security programs at the same time. ![]() Is this true that we don’t need any additional security to replace Norton Security? They say we will have a full security solution with the Xfinity xFi advanced security. Instead Xfinity xFi Advanced Security is already included at no charge. Recently Comcast has indicated that the Norton Security online will no longer be available after January 1, 2021. Question from Mike: I have been a customer of Comcast internet for many years and have been happy to utilize Norton Security that was provided free to Comcast customers.
