Back to school means new dorm rooms, fresh Wi-Fi networks, roommates borrowing your laptop, and a whole lot of new online sign-ups. It also means gamers are back on campus with rigs worth thousands, Steam libraries worth even more, and accounts that make prime targets for phishing and skin scams. Norton 360 Deluxe is currently on sale as part of its 2026 Back to School campaign at $39.99 for the entire first year, working out to $3.33/month. The promotion runs until August 27.
