@@eraldorh In my opinion, Kaspersky performs slightly better than Bitdefender nowadays. But Leo says he will test Kaspersky soon, so I'm interested to see what the results are.
@@eraldorh They were never on par. Bitdefender had huge amount of false positives while Kaspersky and ESET have always had the least amount of false positives. Kaspersky basically has better detection rate with far lower false positives than Bitdefender. Kaspersky has better zero day protection as well and its lighter on system. ESET and Kaspersky are the only paid ones I'd ever recommend anymore. For most people Windows Defender is more than enough.
Ransomware remediation works the same way in all AV products that aren't backing up to some external system. It uses shadowcopy to restore the file to the previous version. This will not work on systems where shadowcopy is disabled. This will also not work for most current strains of ransomware that deletes the snapshot. In my own testing, one really impressive feat of bitdefender that I found is their pre-execution analysis. The test case was pretty specific, a custom program that behaves like ransomware. In my testing, bitdefender was unique in analyzing the code and blocking it's execution before even the first line of code ran.
@@pulok0019 that's interesting but we are not gonna turn off the protection components anyways so we are gonna be good. This rolling back (as called by Kaspersky) is the last line so we have the signatures, behaviour blocker and other components before rolling back so yeah. I am also happy that Bitdefender is also having it but they might need to improve on signatures.
@@pulok0019 yes that is always true but we cannot always trust ourselves. Also, even if you have the world's best AV, and if you are ignorant, then there is less chance that it can save you. Point well said!
I have Bitdefender free anti virus installed on my pc and I was recently attacked by key logging malware. If Bitdefender is so good what wasn’t it detected by the anti virus? Also would appreciate your advice on how to remove this malware please?
someone mention already in the bottom @hobbitmann . free version doesnt include proactive virus protection, so you need paid version to get full protection in my opinion.
Been using Eset for several years now. No complains. In case you like to look for leaked serial keys, Eset flags them very quickly. Speaking from experience.
Leo, please consider testing the Bitdefender, Comodo, etc., products that create a bootable USB drive (usually Linux based) that claim to clean infections while Windows is "asleep." Thanks.
Use a layered approach to PC security. Bitdefender is a fine program, but nothing is perfect. The average user should be doing regular backups using something like Macrium Reflect to keep some recent good images that can quickly be restored if need be. Make sure to make USB rescue media in case the PC won't boot and save backups to an external unplugged drive. I've had Macrium Reflect save my butt a few times, not from any virus or ransomware, but from buggy updates including windows updates. At any time I am only ten minutes away from putting the computer back to a happy place in time and all is well again.
even though I hundred percent use Linux, I still love your content.... on another note, when is Linux getting a decent opensource anti-malware product with real time protection, and when it does, pls package it as a snap or flatpack????
I have to say that was a spectacular fail by Bitdefender that you kind of played down there a bit, When Webrrot spectacularly failed in a similar manner you were very critical of it lol
it really wasnt a huge fail and he wasnt playing it down there were 2 pups left on the system and a joke program which im sure can all be removed easily bitdefender didnt do very badly its just the malware that did get through arent the quiet type and are much more noticeable webroot on the other hand missed tons of actual threatening malware

To The PC Security Channel, how can you use Hitman when Sophos bought out Hitman and added it to their antivirus? I had used Hitman Pro for years with my old computer with a hard drive but the new solid-state computers won't work with it. When I bought my new computer I tried to download Hitman but was told it didn't work with solid-state computers. I had Sophos in my old computer when I got attacked and the first thing the virus did was kill Sophos. I shut down the computer and plugged in Hitman Pro and it wouldn't work.
Perhaps if Bitdefender had even MOOOORE than the "15" individual processes running it would have done a better job than it did? lol Seriously though... that Task Manager is just littered with BitDefender processes before you even started the test.
@@ElonMusk-mt1fv I have used Kaspersky in the past and switched to Bitdefender some time ago. Kaspersky is based outa Moscow and Putin and cronies do as they please.
If read a lot of comments here and some people are talking out of their a$$. I've been using bitdefender (4 or so years) for quite awhile because i can get such a good deal on their family plan but i have slowly started to stop using it. I think the protection is pretty good but it has one major flaw memory utilization. I eagerly upgrade to each new version to hope they made some improvements in this department but they never have. Recently i looked at the utilization from both a Mac & PC perspective (2021 version). I had it using well over 1GB on both a Mac & PC. If you are just using it on your own machine and am not worried about memory usage then you are good to go. I run lots of virtual machines with dynamic memory and it lowers the number of VMs i can run. Leo generally recommends 3 AVs: Kaspersky, Bitdefender, & Sophos Home Premium (SHP). SHP is kind of heavy on memory too but not nearly as bad as bitdefender. Kaspersky is generally very good with memory utilization (< 200MB unless you are slamming the system). I see people saying kaspersky is heavy but i've never experienced that on either mac or pc. Eset has great definitions and PUP detection (but if your hit with a 0 day then their behavior blocker SUCKS) and on PC their memory/cpu utilization is awesome (generally < 50MB). Though not so light on a mac (kaspersky is lighter).
Thanks for that piece of information 😉 Im currently in the 30 day trial of Bitdefender Total Security - when that runs out im likely to use your affiliate link 🤙
If you get a chance, please do a ransomware test with Bitdefender Gravity Zone. In my experience, it's really poor, based on past experiences, but I would really like to see another opinion. Thanks!
He did it to let a ransomware run, and try let bitdefender block the actions the malware was taking, rather than just blocking the known application itself.

Not even a minute into the video and I can already tell I would never get this software. It has the same issue that Avira has and why I stopped using it. I'm talking about the fixed size of the GUI. Most of us are using 1080p (or bigger) monitors these days, but these companies limit the size of the GUI to a small percentage of the available screen space.

I guess it is just some kind of protected folder, like in Windows Defender, everything one puts in there is safe, because the ransomware gets no access in there. They used "remediation" instead, which looks like something "active", but it is an essentially passive operation.
No it's not, the feature you mentioned is called "Safe Files" on bitdefender...
@@Julio_Fiss okay, Julio, then it's just some disfunctional feature.
