Webcam and microphone control to prevent spying
Snooping and eavesdropping are popular spying tricks that are used not only to obtain information, but also to acquire illegal earnings. Recently, attacks involving criminals gaining access to user cameras or microphones, recording audio and video, and then demanding a ransom to keep the attained information confidential have accelerated. Users cannot tell when their cameras are being accessed (no light comes on), and this can happen even when users have locked their screens.
Dr.Web 12 for Windows will render such intrusions impossible. It will protect your privacy because it ensures that webcams and microphones cannot be used for surveillance purposes. So you no longer have to tape over your webcam :)
A computer should serve its user and not some invisible intruder.
