Antivirus
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.
IMPROVED 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.
