Does Bitdefender slow down my computer?

No. Bitdefender is engineered to be extremely lightweight. Its cloud-based engine offloads most scanning to remote servers, minimizing any impact on your device's performance.

What is the difference between Antivirus Plus and Total Security?

Antivirus Plus covers Windows only with core protection features. Total Security adds coverage for Mac, iOS, and Android, plus parental controls, a battery optimizer, and advanced privacy tools.

Is the Bitdefender VPN truly unlimited?

The VPN bundled with basic plans is capped at 200 MB/day. For unlimited VPN usage, you can upgrade to the Premium VPN add-on or choose a suite that includes it.

Does Bitdefender protect against ransomware?

Yes. Bitdefender includes dedicated ransomware protection that monitors for suspicious file modifications and can restore files encrypted by ransomware attacks.

How many devices can I cover with one license?

It depends on your plan. Licenses range from 1 to 10 devices. The Total Security suite typically covers 5 devices by default, with options to add more.
