Bitdefender Total Security

With the constant advancements in hackers’ repertoire of threats, it is imperious for users to maintain a high level of protection, through specialized software, which more often than not needs to encompass a wide array of antivirus and related features. Bitdefender Total Security constitutes a comprehensive collection of security tools that address the most modern threats and their ever-changing characteristics.

Although complex threats require complex solutions, the end-user doesn’t need to be bothered with complicated approaches. This aspect has been well addressed in this latest issue of the program, through a well-thought layout that offers quick access to all of the available features by classifying them into four main categories.

Regardless of the chosen operations, scans are easy to perform and always come with a progress preview. Each feature and its subsequent tasks can be enabled or disabled individually, this way users having the option of further refining their security plan.

When dwelling deeper than the initial, quick scan, which is provided by most AVs these days, one will discover that Bitdefender Total Security also carries dedicated tools for assessing PC vulnerability, managing spam, protecting directories or even defining online threat defense strategies.

Those who frequently handle financial and payment data can rest assured as the anti-theft features will allow them to “protect their investment”. And as if all of the standard, security features weren’t enough, a dedicated PC optimization tool will ensure a clean and snappy computer.

One major advantage provided by Bitdefender Total Security is the fact that, in comparison with its siblings, namely Bitdefender Antivirus Plus and Bitdefender Internet Security, purchasing it as licensed for Windows, it can also be installed on Mac, iOS or Android bearing devices.

Coupled with the built-in firewall, which is absent in the Antivirus Plus version, this program basically manages to tick all the boxes in terms of modern-era security and threat protection.

The updated version of Bitdefender Total Security doesn’t pack major changes; instead, it carries tweaks, refinements and bundles extra features, which all add-up to make for a “total” and modern security solution.
