What Counts As A Real Black Friday Antivirus Deal?

Antivirus list prices are usually the renewal price, so most codes look heavily discounted all year. The useful comparison is the price per device per year against what the brand charges new customers directly.

Watch for auto-renewal. Many codes, including Norton 360 and McAfee Total Protection, renew automatically at a higher price once the first term ends. Note the renewal date when you redeem. Right now 12 of the 12 security suites below show a discount.

The grid includes McAfee, Norton, Webroot, NORTONLIFELOCK. Buy the device count you need now, since adding devices mid-term usually costs more.

Black Friday is November 27, 2026, and Cyber Monday is November 30. Amazon has not set its 2026 Black Friday dates; last year its event ran November 20 to December 1. For VPNs and password managers, see the software and VPN deals.
