After Symantec recently prepared the release of a single-license security solution for multiple devices, now it's Kaspersky's turn to come up with something similar. Because the competition is tight, the latter planned the launch for October.

Cloud-based and multi-device services seem to be the new craze among security solutions providers who are in a permanent battle to bring innovation to the market. And because originality has gone down the drain, the Kaspersky product will also be called One, just like Norton's.

Kaspersky ONE is a universal solution that should offer comprehensive protection to all the apparatus owned by an individual, taking away the concerns and difficulties created by multiple licenses.

ONE will be available in the United States, United Kingdom and Ireland starting with October 17, 2011 and it can be purchased in combinations for three, five or ten computing machines.

Windows, Mac OS X, Android and Symbian are just a few of the platforms supported by the latest addition to the company's showcase.

The single interface will make sure customers benefit from all the latest updates and upgrades available for their anti-cybercrime applications.

Eugene Kaspersky, CEO and co-founder of Kaspersky Labs, revealed “In today’s world it’s vital to ensure your digital devices are secure against cybercrime. Now, with Kaspersky ONE Universal Security, you can easily protect them with one, simple solution from the market leader you can trust. And as new devices come on the market, we’ll be there to secure them too. Kaspersky ONE is built for the way you live – to ensure you’re always safe.”

Best Buy and Staples will be among the retailers who'll commercialize the new product that will come at a price of $79.95(€56 or£50) for three devices, $99.95(€63 or £55) for five devices, and $149.95(€100 or £80) for ten devices.
