Bitdefender

What it is

Bitdefender GravityZone is a unified endpoint security platform built around a single lightweight agent and a single cloud console — consolidating what used to require three or four separate tools (AV, EDR, XDR, risk management, patch). The platform pairs multi-layered prevention — signature-less machine learning, HyperDetect Tunable AI, behavioral analysis, Fileless Attack Defense, and Exploit Defense — with post-execution detection, response, and investigation workflows.

Beyond the endpoint, GravityZone XDR adds native sensors for identity (Active Directory, Entra ID), network traffic, cloud workloads (AWS, Azure, GCP), productivity apps (Microsoft 365, Google Workspace), and Atlassian business apps. A central correlation engine stitches signals across those sensors into a single incident graph with a human-readable attack synopsis, automated evidence collection, and recommended response actions — compressing detection and response effort by up to 90%.

For clients who don't have a SOC, Bitdefender MDR layers a 24/7 analyst team on top of the same GravityZone tenant, so we can escalate in-platform rather than hand off to a disconnected third-party SOC.

Key capabilities

• HyperDetect Tunable AI

  Pre-execution machine-learning layer that catches targeted attacks, obfuscated malware, and suspicious behavior at tunable aggression levels per endpoint group.

• Ransomware Prevention & Mitigation

  Detects abnormal encryption behavior, kills the process, and restores affected files from tamper-protected backups created at the moment of detection.

• Network Attack Defense

  Monitors incoming, outgoing, and lateral traffic on the endpoint itself to block brute-force attempts, port scans, and lateral movement before they reach a domain controller.

• Fileless Attack & Exploit Defense

  Script-based and memory-resident attack detection (PowerShell, WMI, LOLBins) plus exploit mitigations for common vulnerable applications.

• GravityZone XDR Correlation

  Native cross-domain sensors (endpoint, identity, network, cloud, M365, Google Workspace) feeding a single correlation engine that generates a unified incident timeline.

• Risk Management

  Continuously scores endpoints for risky user behavior, OS and app misconfigurations, and missing patches, with prioritized remediation actions.

• Web & Content Control with SSL Inspection

  Scans encrypted web traffic, blocks malicious and phishing domains at the endpoint without a proxy.

• Guided Investigation & MITRE ATT&CK Mapping

  Incidents surface with mapped MITRE techniques and one-click response recommendations (isolate host, kill process, roll back).
