The program also is available to faculty and staff at participating U.S. universities.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Younger generations are rapidly becoming the target and victim of online threats like malware and\u00a0scams, with Americans between the ages of 20 to 29 (Gen Z) losing\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ic3.gov\/AnnualReport\/Reports\/2024_IC3Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">$540.1 million<\/a> according to the Internet Crime Complaint Center. This age group is also being targeted with specific types of\u00a0scams,\u00a0likely tied\u00a0to their deeper digital engagement and constant connectivity, as well as the readily available data on them from data breaches suffered by universities and colleges in recent years. According to Malwarebytes research, Gen Z (49%) and Millennials (43%) are significantly more likely to have fallen victim to a mobile\u00a0scam\u00a0or malware than Gen X (35%) or Boomers and older (22%).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe believe cybersecurity and data privacy are a right, not a privilege. We are leaning into our roots of providing free solutions to help the next generation take control of their data and digital identities,\u201d said Mark Beare, GM of Consumer, Malwarebytes. \u201cYounger generations have become prime targets of cybercriminals swiping credit card info via infostealers, extorting money with sextortion&nbsp;scams, conducting identity theft and more. We want to be the place that students can turn to for help,&nbsp;community&nbsp;and cybersecurity protection.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new program&nbsp;connects&nbsp;to Malwarebytes\u2019 founding story, creating a community for students who are unsure of where to begin when it comes to securing their digital lives.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cToo many people think about personal cybersecurity only after something has already gone wrong,\u201d said Oren Arar, VP of Business Development, Malwarebytes. \u201cStudents are entering one of the most digitally exposed periods of their lives, often without the tools or resources to protect themselves. The Student Protection Program is about removing that barrier, and it reflects our long-term commitment to expanding access to real protection, nationally and globally.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To&nbsp;sign up<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested students, faculty or staff should visit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.malwarebytes.com\/student\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">www.malwarebytes.com\/student<\/a>&nbsp;to verify their email and receive download instructions.&nbsp;Once an email is verified, the subscription will be granted for free for a period of two years, with an option to extend after that period.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Malwarebytes launched the program at select&nbsp;universities across the United States with plans to add more institutions on an ongoing basis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Malwarebytes Premium Security<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Malwarebytes Premium Security provides all-in-one protection from today&#8217;s threats, scams,\u00a0viruses\u00a0and trackers.
