BitDefender Internet Security Launched
BitDefender announced today the launch of BitDefender Internet Security, a security package aimed at the home/soho markets which includes antivirus, antispyware, antispam/antiphishing, parental control and firewall modules.
The new parental control module included sports handy features such as web time limiting, a chat blocker and real-time web censoring, while the firewall module has been entirely rebuilt, and now supports "stealth mode", custom ICMP responses, pass-through packet filtering and protocol-based filtering among other things.
"I dare say that BitDefender Internet Security puts us squarely in the race for the best workstation security solution out there. With the addition of so many new features like the new proprietary antispyware engines and the technological edge represented by HiVE (Heuristics in Virtual Environment), we are now poised to win over the market. My thanks go, as always, to our customers for their continued help in improving our products, and to the dev team for making all this possible" declared Bogdan Dumitru, BitDefender CTO.
The suggested price for one license is 64.95 euro, and availability is immediate, from the BitDefender website.
