Bitdefender

Layered security that stops most attacks before they do damage.

Who Bitdefender is

Bitdefender is a European security company, founded in 2001 in Bucharest by Florin Talpeș, who still leads it today. It has more than 2,000 employees. For businesses it provides GravityZone, one platform for securing laptops, computers, servers and mail.

What GravityZone does

Protection in layers

No single technique stops everything. GravityZone combines several: risk analysis and locking down weak settings, machine-learning detection before a program even starts, protection against exploitation of vulnerabilities, detection of fileless attacks, a safety net against ransomware and an isolated test environment in the cloud for suspicious files.

Detection and response

If something does happen, GravityZone shows what happened, on which device and how it spread, and can isolate a device straight away. That keeps an incident limited to one laptop.

Extra modules

Depending on the need: update management for Windows and programs, full disk encryption, mail security for Microsoft 365, and smartphone security.

Day and night monitoring

For those who want it, a Bitdefender team monitors the environment around the clock, from security centres on three continents.

How it scores in independent tests

AV-TEST Awards 2025“Best Protection 2025” award for business users, the only winner in that category (published March 2026)

GravityZone consistently scores among the best. That matters, but what convinces us most is the low number of false alarms: security that raises the alarm too often ends up being ignored.

Where your data is kept

GravityZone’s European cloud runs in Germany, with a backup in the Netherlands.

Why we work with Bitdefender

  • Strong protection with few false alarms, proven in independent tests.
  • One console for all of a customer’s devices, even when they are at home.
  • A European company, with data in the EU.

How Q-Ware uses Bitdefender

GravityZone runs on every laptop, computer and server of our customers. We receive the alerts, investigate them and act. How that fits into the whole, you can read on Security.

Frequently asked questions

Is Windows Defender not enough?

Windows’ built-in protection is better than it used to be, but it lacks central management, the layers and the follow-up. For a business, that is the difference between an alert on one screen and someone who acts.

What if something happens at night?

For those who want it, a Bitdefender team monitors the environment around the clock and steps in, outside office hours too.
