There are too many threats that make their way through standard firewalls, and those included with antivirus software just do an overall better job. While your operating system likely comes with one, I've seen during testing that having a second layer of protection is vital. The biggest tool not included with Bitdefender Antivirus Plus is a personal firewall. Bitdefender gives you safe links where you can download patches and new versions of software, so you don't need to guess if links found online are legitimate or not. Some of these vulnerabilities include corrupted drives and outdated software programs.
Antivirus Plus also has a vulnerability scanner that looks for weak points in your entire system and helps you secure these against hackers and ransomware. It also has social network protections that keep an eye on activity on social media pages, letting you know if there is a malicious link that's been shared. When I tested Bitdefender, it recognized websites known to harbor malicious files and links and block the entire website from being accessed.Įven though Antivirus Plus is Bitdefender's basic solution, it still comes with a password manager and secure file shredder. With safe browsing enabled, it'll also tag search results as safe to click through or not. Bitdefender also recognizes phishing schemes and will warn you of them. It stops Trojans, rootkits, ransomware, and worms, and with the safe browser extension enabled, it'll prevent these threats from entering your computer through the internet. It deserves our top spot for the best antivirus software.
