In one of the best Black Friday deals we've yet seen, Kaspersky is taking up to 70% off its Windows and multiplatform security suites, including Kaspersky Total Security, Kaspersky Internet Security, Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Kaspersky Security Cloud Personal.

Meanwhile, Kaspersky Security Cloud Personal adds online-account protection, a home Wi-Fi network monitor and cloud-based parental controls.

Each of these products comes with Kaspersky's unbeatable malware-detection engine, which has the best track record for spotting and eliminating malicious software in years of third-party lab tests. In our own tests, Kaspersky Total Security had a fairly light impact on system performance, while the free version of Kaspersky Security Cloud actually sped up our machine.

All of these have access to Kaspersky's VPN service, but it's capped at 200MB per day for the regular antivirus offerings, and 500MB for Kaspersky Security Cloud Personal. Unlimited VPN access costs $30 per year, which is a bargain compared to some of the other best VPN services.
