Avast is a popular antivirus program that is available for free and for a variety of platforms. Many users find it to be a reliable and effective program.

However, there is no guarantee that Avast will detect all forms of phishing.

Phishing is a technique used by criminals to obtain personal information such as passwords, credit card numbers, and social security numbers. Victims are typically contacted via email or text message and asked to provide personal information.

If you are unfamiliar with phishing, be sure to be very cautious when responding to any unsolicited email or text message.

Avast does not specifically mention phishing in its product documentation, but it does include a wide variety of security features that could help detect this type of attack. Avast uses a variety of algorithms to scan files and detect potential threats.

In addition, it maintains a database of known malware and phishing sites. If you notice any suspicious activity on your computer, be sure to scan your computer for malware and phishing threats using Avast.
