BitDefender Antivirus for Mac 2012 - Automatically Detects and Blocks All Known Mac Viruses

Although Macs are traditionally believed to be less prone to cyber-criminal attacks, recent developments have shown that malware writers are concentrating more and more on finding vulnerabilities in MacOS and popular Mac applications.

There is also a high likelihood of Mac owners using and passing on infected content coming from (and targeted at) Windows-based systems. BitDefender Antivirus for Mac addresses both sides of this issue in that it keeps Mac computers free from Mac viruses while stopping threats that target other platforms, but which may pass through the Mac environment.

BitDefender Antivirus for Mac 2012

BitDefender Antivirus for Mac is one of the best Mac antivirus applications because it is so effective. The Mac antivirus software is effective at locating and removing existing threats, and preventing any future malware. The multiple layers of security protect your Mac by stopping any threat that that comes your way (or hackers who try to infiltrate the system).

BitDefender for Mac features intelligent scanning, which only checks new and recently modified files, for optimal speed and security. When this Mac antivirus software detects a potential threat, the offending bytes are isolated in a quarantine cell, where they await your final judgment.

If you prefer, you can configure the application to respond to these threats automatically.
