You can now buy Bitdefender from
ACPC by choosing one of the packages below.
BitDefender Plus
Internet Security
with Anti-Spyware and Parental
Controls
The purpose of the
Antivirus module is to
ensure detection and
removal of all viruses
in the wild. BitDefender
Antivirus uses robust
scan engines certified
by ICSA Labs, Virus
Bulletin, Checkmark,
CheckVir and TÜV.
IMPROVED Proactive Detection
B-HAVE (Behavioral Heuristic
Analyzer in Virtual
Environments) emulates a
virtual
computer-inside-a-computer
where pieces of software are
run in order to check for
potential malware behavior.
This BitDefender proprietary
technology represents a new
security layer that keeps
the operating system safe
from unknown viruses by
detecting malicious pieces
of code for which signatures
have not yet been released.
Permanent Antivirus
Protection
The new and improved
BitDefender scanning engines
will scan and disinfect
infected files on access,
minimizing data loss.
Infected documents can now
be recovered instead of
being deleted.
NEW
Rootkit Detection and
Removal
A new BitDefender module
looks for rootkits
(malicious programs designed
to control victim computers,
while staying hidden) and
removes them on detection.
NEW
Web Scanning
Web traffic is now filtered
in real time even before
reaching your browser,
providing a safe and
enjoyable web experience.
Peer-2-Peer and IM
Applications Protection
Filters against viruses that
spread via instant messaging
and file sharing software
applications.
Full E-mail Protection
BitDefender runs on the
POP3/SMTP protocol level,
filtering incoming and
outgoing e-mail messages,
regardless of the e-mail
client used (MS Outlook, MS
Outlook Express, Netscape,
Pegasus, The Bat, etc.),
without any additional
configuration.
Application Firewall
The firewall module
filters network traffic
and controls the access
permission of
applications connecting
to the Internet.
Internet Traffic Control
Defines exactly which
incoming or outgoing
connections to permit/deny.
Define rules regarding
specific protocols, ports,
applications and/or remote
addresses.
IMPROVED Internet
Application Control
BitDefender maintains a
database of trusted
applications, and informs
users whether or not the
applications demanding
network access are
trustworthy, so they can
make informed decisions.
Alternatively, BitDefender
can grant access
automatically for trusted
applications.
Antispam
The new and improved
BitDefender Antispam
technology employs
remarkable technological
innovations which allow
it to adapt to new
spamming techniques as
they emerge, and to
“learn” its user’s
preferences to block
spam while maintaining a
very low ratio of
legitimate mails tagged
as spam.
IIMPROVED Adaptive Filtering
BitDefender employs advanced
clustering and neural
network analysis techniques
to classify e-mail based on
user preference and emerging
patterns in the local
collection of e-mails. The
antispam Bayesian filter can
be trained by the user (by
simply classifying some
e-mail as spam or
legitimate) and is also
self-trained, continually
developing new filtering
criteria based on past
decisions.
Anti-Phishing
BitDefender's new phishing
detector keeps your computer
clear of malicious e-mails
trying to trick you into
giving away your bank
account information or other
sensitive data.
Heuristic, URL,
Whitelist/Blacklist, Charset
and Image Filters
Five types of filters
further refine your control
over e-mail. The heuristic
filter checks mail for the
characteristics of spam. The
Whitelist/Blacklist filter
rejects mail from known
spammer addresses and lets
your friends' mail through.
The URL filter blocks mail
containing malicious links,
while the charset filter
blocks mail written in
“strange” characters. The
image filter decides whether
images embedded in e-mails
are specific to spam.
Compatibility and
Outlook(tm) Integration
BitDefender antispam is
compatible with all e-mail
clients. The BitDefender
antispam toolbar in
Microsoft Outlook and
Outlook Express allows users
to train the Bayesian
filter.
Antispyware
BitDefender monitors and
prevents potential
spyware threats in
real-time, before they
can damage your system.
By making use of a
comprehensive database
of spyware signatures,
it will keep your
computer spyware-free.
Real-Time Antispyware
BitDefender monitors dozens
of potential “hotspots” in
your system where spyware
might act, and also checks
any changes made to your
system and software. Known
spyware threats are also
blocked in real-time.
Spyware Scanning and
Cleaning
BitDefender can scan your
entire system, or just part
of it, for known spyware
threats. The scan uses a
constantly updated spyware
signature database.
NEW Privacy Protection
The privacy guard monitors
HTTP (web) and SMTP (mail)
traffic flowing out of your
computer for what might be
personal information –such
as credit card numbers,
Social Security numbers and
other user-defined strings
(e.g. bits of passwords).
Anti-Dialer
A configurable anti-dialer
prevents malicious
applications from running up
a huge telephone bill at
your expense.
