BitDefender provides a full suit of armour to protect your PC when it's online, whether you're browsing the internet or connected via always-on broadband. It does so with the help of a suite of tools: antivirus, spam protection, parental controls, firewall and antispyware. With each module you can use a slider to set the level of protection – from paranoid to laid-back. Alternatively, advanced users can set a custom level, selecting exactly what the software will allow or block.
Antivirus. Virus Detection is what makes BitDefender Internet Security shine. Its virus scanner is fast, accurate and adaptable. Virus Bulletin rated BitDefender a VB100%, the highest honor for antivirus software.
Antispyware. BitDefender will stop all major threats including adware, keyloggers, trojans and browser hijackers to keep your private information safe. There is no need for configuration because BitDefender will perform all antispyware functions automatically.
The parental controls module allows you to block access to inappropriate websites or emails or to stop access to the internet entirely. You can even set different profiles dependent on the age of the user.
Firewall. BitDefender continually monitors all incoming and outgoing data. Within the settings dialog, the firewall tab contains five configuration and informational tabs to help with configuration: Status, Traffic, Advanced, Activity and Zones. The status tab includes a real-time graph so you can visually see your computer’s communication with the Internet. It also features a sliding bar to help with quick changes to the security level of your computer.
