An excellent antivirus solution.

Bitdefender's latest Antivirus Plus release is making waves with its fresh technologies and robust features aimed at shielding your system from viruses and e-threats. Upon installation, you'll have access to two modes to configure the utility.

Autopilot mode for easy, care-free protection

The Autopilot mode works with default settings, allowing you to carry on with your tasks without any interruptions, whereas Automatic Game mode is designed to cater to gamers who don't want to be disturbed while playing their favorite games.

Intuitive interface with easy access to the main features of the app

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus boasts an attractive and sleek interface, offering various scanning modes to choose from. The Quick mode scans key areas of your hard drive, while the System mode thoroughly checks for any suspicious activity. You can also customize your scanning preferences, scheduling one-time or recurring scans, specifying the location to look for viruses and choosing the scan method (aggressive, normal, permissive).

Another significant feature of Bitdefender Antivirus Plus is its ability to scan vulnerable sections of your system, including Windows updates, application updates, and even Windows accounts passwords. Moreover, the Rescue mode is designed to eliminate tricky threats like rootkits by requiring you to reboot the system.

Additional tools including file shredding and anti-theft protection

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus is also equipped with a file shredding tool to ensure data privacy by erasing sensitive information completely from your computer. You can further enhance your security by enabling auto-scan and anti-phishing modes, as well as using Safego to activate anti-theft protection for lost devices, parental control, and Facebook protection.

The Wallet feature is another powerful tool that allows you to store credentials for online banking, websites, emails, and more, protecting them from unauthorized use. Plus, the automatic locking feature ensures that the Wallet is locked when the workstation is unattended.

The verdict

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus also offers several settings to suit your preferences, such as automatic laptop mode, security widget display, and status alerts. The utility marks important events and shows various statistics on virus scans and threat removals, making it an ideal solution for all levels of users. With its intuitive interface and the Bitdefender Photon technology, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus proves to be a reliable and light on system resources, making it the perfect application for virus detection and removal.
