With Bitdefender File Security, you can prevent unauthorized changes to your most important files. Simply add folders to the watchlist and Bitdefender will protect the files stored in them from ransomware and other malware. Only applications you explicitly trust will be able to access your secure files.

Time Machine Protection

If you use Time Machine to back up your files, you’ll want this extra layer of security to stay safe from sophisticated ransomware attacks. Ransomware, a highly dangerous type of malware, encrypts valuable files like pictures, videos, and other documents, rendering them unusable. This sophisticated feature lets Mac users restore their files without having to pay a ransom. Time Machine Protection gives you an advantage over any malware that tries to encrypt or destroy your backups.

Ad Blocker

Unwanted ads appearing in your browser are annoying, and even Macs can get caught up in this intrusive adware that distracts you and slows you down. Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac detects and removes adware, malicious hijackers, unwanted toolbars, and other annoying browser add-ons so you can enjoy your Mac to the fullest.

Cross-Platform Malware Detection

Your Mac may be safe from malicious content designed for Windows, but you want to make sure you don't pick it up and pass it on to PC users. Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac detects and removes both malware targeting macOS and threats designed for Windows, so you can be sure that the files you send to others aren't compromised.
