Is Your Computer Protected Against Attacks?įor your information, most generic antivirus programs do not have the ability to protect the devices they are installed on against attacks by malware like Trojans, cryptoware, spyware, and keyloggers. I am writing this honest Bitdefender Total Security review based on my experiences as well as that of the information provided by my friend. In fact, my computer seems to be running faster than before.


Several weeks have passed since then and I have faced no problems. I had no option left other than to format my computer's HDD and reinstall all programs including the operating system.īased on a suggestion by my friend, I purchased Bitdefender Total Security, downloaded it, and installed it on my computer. I later realized that that particular program could not protect me against all types of malware, including cryptoware. I was using the supposedly best antivirus program available to protect my PC but that did not help. Thankfully, my habit of saving data on a weekly basis on a portable hard drive and on a cloud-based storage server saved me quite a lot.

Whenever I turned on my PC, I used to see a message on the screen requesting me to send Bitcoins worth $350 to a specific wallet. I had lost all the data stored in my computer's hard disk drive a couple of weeks ago after the latter was infected by cryptoware.
