Bitdefender Total Security





Bitdefender Total Security is an all-in-one antivirus and Internet security package that comprises a solid virus 
detection / removal engine combined with tough firewall and antispam modules. Other capabilities include
 social network protection, parental control, online backups and computer tune up
.

Bitdefender Total Security makes an impression through its simplicity, ease of use and accessibility. 
The elegant and organized user interface together with the high level of customizability turn it into a reliabl
e choice for all the categories in the audience. Beginners can and should rely on the AutoPilot feature that
 adjusts the settings just in the right amount in order to ensure a balanced protection scheme.

Bitdefender Total Security is equipped with all the standard features one would expect in a complete
 security suite such as this one. The Antivirus component provides various scanning modes: full system
 scan, custom scan, vulnerability scan, and rescue mode. A smart addition is the Scan Dispatcher module,
 designed to perform full scans only when computer resources are in low use.

The Firewall module does a great job at monitoring incoming and outgoing Internet connections, keeping
 unauthorized users from accessing your Wi-Fi. Emails can be tracked with the Antispam module that prev
ents your Inbox from being flooded with spam messages.

Parental Control allows users to filter potentially dangerous websites and to set limits on Internet access for 
kids. Instant Messaging can also be restricted and virtually any content can be blocked based on keywords.
 Social network protection is ensured via Safego, a feature that monitors Twitter and Facebook links.

Precious data can be stored online using Safebox, a tool that facilitates secure backups. More system tweaks
 are available via the Tune-Up section that comprises utilities for cleaning the registry and defragmenting the
 disks.

This is the most complete suite that Bitdefender has issued. It’s a wise and recommendable choice for users 
who have a rich online activity, because it sports all the features one would ever need to stay away from all
 kinds of malware.
