NEW YORK, Sept. 21, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- NordVPN, a leading all-in-one digital security app, has announced a partnership with Shaquille O'Neal, a basketball legend, entrepreneur, educator, and philanthropist, to educate users on digital threats and the importance of cybersecurity. The partnership will see NordVPN’s next-generation antivirus, which scans 12 million unique URLs every day and blocks an average of 130,000 malicious pages daily, paired with Shaquille O'Neal’s influence to spread awareness about online security.
According to NordVPN’s experts, the scale of digital threats people face daily is staggering. In the first half of 2026 alone, NordVPN blocked almost 5 million malware attempts in the United States. Scams and phishing attacks remain relentless, with NordVPN blocking nearly 29,000 scam calls and warning more than 525,000 users about spam calls. Of more than 4.4 million phishing connections blocked, 99% impersonated just 300 brands, demonstrating how attackers recycle trusted names at a massive scale.
The NordVPN and Shaquille O'Neal partnership will last for more than a year, with one of the key events happening in New York City this fall. To mark the partnership, NordVPN is offering new customers up to 75% off a two-year plan, including a 30-day money-back guarantee and the next-generation antivirus built into the NordVPN app. All plans come with a 30-day money-back guarantee and next-generation antivirus built in.
The NordVPN next-generation antivirus, which was introduced earlier this year, expands beyond its VPN offering into the broader digital security category. Built directly into the NordVPN app, it stops malware, scams, and phishing attacks before they reach the user's device.
