These five apps will keep you safe while browsing. Get the deal today.

As the number of online threats grows exponentially, the importance of keeping yourself safe while you're online is becoming greater with every passing day.

Of course, we all know that you should use a VPN, a password manager, a secure online storage provider, and so on. But it is easier said than done. Yes, these types of apps are essential, but they also cost money. And in these COVID times, most people don't have the spare money to justify the outlay.

But don't worry, as always, MakeUseOf can help. Today, we have managed to bag readers a huge discount on five premium security apps.

Let's take a closer look.

The five apps in today's deal are Ivacy VPN, Password Boss, ThunderDrive, AdGuard, and Timelinr.

You'll get a lifetime subscription to Ivacy VPN as part of the bundle. In total, Ivacy has more than 1,000 servers spread over 100 locations worldwide. That means you can keep yourself safe, but can also unblock streaming services that have geo-restrictions in your actual location.

Importantly, Ivacy is an official partner of the National Cyber Security Alliance, so you can confident that it is a provider you can trust.

Password Boss is a password manager. It willstore and auto-fill usernames and passwords for all your online accounts, meaning you can set highly secure passwords (using lots of special characters!) and not have to worry about remembering them all every time you need to log in to an account.

You can store an unlimited number of passwords and sync them between all your devices. Again, this is a lifetime subscription.

ThunderDrive is a secure cloud storage service that uses 256-bit AES encryption; you can do all the usual tasks such as creating folders, managing links, and sharing private documents.

However, there is one thing that sets it apart from Google Drive et althe amount of storage. Whereas you'll only get 15GB with Google, ThunderDrive gives you a massive 500GB.

The deal gives you lifetime access.

AdGuard is one of the world's most advanced ad blockers. However, the app offers more than that; it also includes a full-featured parental control tool and a privacy protection module.

All this conspires to help keep you and your family safe from annoying and intrusive ads that might try to deliver malware to your machine.

Just remember to whitelist MakeUseOf!

The final app in the bundle is Timelinr. It's a collaboration tool that helps you to create project roadmaps, plan tasks and resources, and share your projects with colleagues.

It offers unlimited timelines and sharing across all users.

Lifetime access to all these plans has a regular cost of $1740, but we can offer readers a 94 percent discount. That means you pay just $90.
