Kaspersky Standard 2025 is the latest version of Kaspersky's entry-level antivirus, licensed for one device for one year. It covers the essentials: malware detection, blocking of fraudulent websites and protection for online payments. The extra services of the Plus edition (unlimited VPN, password manager) and the Premium edition (identity protection) are not part of it.
What the protection covers
- Continuous antivirus scanning: a detection engine that is kept up to date against recent threats.
- Ransomware protection: monitors attempts to encrypt your personal folders and halts them.
- Secure payments browser: separates your banking and online shopping sessions from the other processes on the system.
- Web filtering and anti-phishing: flags dangerous links in search results and in e-mails.
- Detection of unwanted programs: spots adware installed without your knowledge.
What to know before ordering
The EU label gives the zone where the key is valid; activate it from a country in Europe. The application runs on Windows 11, 10 and 8.1, and versions exist for macOS, Android and iOS: the single licence is used on the device of your choice. Plan on about 2 GB of RAM and roughly 1.5 GB of free disk space, plus a permanent internet connection for updates.
Activation and delivery
The activation key is sent by e-mail within 24 hours of payment. Download Kaspersky from the publisher's website, sign in to your My Kaspersky account and enter the code in the licence section. The 12 months begin at activation, not on the purchase date.
