Cylance antivirus (home edition)
MY ROLE
UX Design, UI Design, Interaction Design
Project overview
After many years of perfecting Cylance’s core product, Cylance PROTECT, the company needed to launch a consumer offering. With the AV landscape changing and consumer demand rising for a next-generation solution, Cylance Home Edition was created. In order to serve the consumer market, much of the functionality had to be reduced to a bare minimum. The technical terminology present in the enterprise offering needed to be reworded to be more straightforward and simpler. Key flows for adding devices/endpoints to the network, whitelisting approved software, and various other operations all needed to be significantly simplified. Users needed a simple dashboard they could view to understand their threat protection level quickly and easily. The visual language needed to be bold and clear.
