ESET's New Security Suites Guard Your AI Chats and iPhone
Jena – October 28, 2026 -- ESET has updated its ESET HOME Security and ESET Small Business Security packages to protect users against AI-driven scams, and the new features are available now. The update also brings ESET Mobile Security to iOS devices for the first time.
The security vendor cites a concrete threat: since March 2026, its researchers have found 3,000 malicious AI skills, the add-ons that extend what AI tools can do. Stefan Heitkamp, Director of Retail, Etail and OEM Partnerships at ESET, says many users now trust AI answers about as much as search results, and attackers are trying to exploit that trust.
