Online Protection
Plume filters out suspicious content as your devices connect to the Internet, providing you with real-time threat protection against crypto-mining, ransomware, malware, viruses, botnets, phishing attacks and more.
Advanced IoT Protection™
Plume identifies all your connected devices and continuously monitors them for suspicious activity. If a device is compromised, Plume quarantines the device, preventing the threat from spreading to rest of your connected devices.
Adblocking
Plume blocks the ad content coming from known ad servers, significantly improving your browsing experience.
Parental Controls
Make the internet a safer place by managing the type of content that each device or profile can access. Additionally, approve or block specific websites per device or profile to keep your family safe.
Internet Freeze
Going offline is sometimes a good habit! Schedule an Internet freeze, give a time out to a specific device or person and monitor their levels of Internet usage.
HomePass®
Home all access
Give full home Wi-Fi access to people you implicitly trust. This will allow their devices to interact with all other connected devices in your home.
Limited Guest Access
Create custom passwords for each guest and then choose which connected devices—like printers, TVs, security cameras or thermostats— they can access to make them feel instantly at home.
Internet Only Access
Devices with Internet only Wi-Fi passwords will only be connected to the Internet and not any of the connected devices in your home.
Plume Motion
Whole-home awareness
Now your wireless devices work together to detect movement in your home, just by measuring Wi-Fi signals – and they alert you via the Plume app. Which means peace of mind, privacy, and no need to buy new equipment.
SuperPod™
Plume’s beautifully designed SuperPods plug into existing power outlets throughout your home.
