Welcome to GravityZone

GravityZone is a multilayered security solution that provides enhanced attack protection by leveraging an extensive set of system-hardening, threat-prevention, and detection technologies, as well as machine learning and behavioral analysis.

Explore the onboarding guide and take your first steps in using GravityZone.

Optimize remote work protection, enhance resistance to sophisticated ransomware attacks and data breaches, and reduce risk with a comprehensive solution designed with your security in mind.

Antimalware

Bitdefender employs advanced cybersecurity measures such as content scanning and heuristic analysis to safeguard against a wide range of malicious software.

This technique involves comparing scanned artifacts with an up-to-date security database. However, a vulnerability period may exist between the emergence of new threats and the release of fixes.

Bitdefender's detection technologies identify potential malware by analyzing behavioral patterns and executing suspicious files in a secure virtual environment to evaluate their effects on the system.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Antimalware.

Advanced Threat Control

To safeguard against cybersecurity threats that evade the heuristic engine, an additional level of security is implemented through Advanced Threat Control.

This technology constantly observes active processes and evaluates suspicious actions such as disguising the process type, performing code execution in the memory space of another process (for privilege escalation), replicating or depositing files, and evading detection from process enumeration applications.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Advanced Threat Control.

HyperDetect

HyperDetect is a cybersecurity technology that provides an extra layer of protection against sophisticated cyberattacks during the pre-execution phase. It utilizes advanced machine learning models and stealth attack detection technology to defend against threats such as zero-day attacks, advanced persistent threats (APT), obfuscated malware, fileless attacks, credential theft, targeted attacks, custom malware, script-based attacks, exploits, hacking tools, suspicious network traffic, potentially unwanted applications (PUAs), and ransomware.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to HyperDetect.

Advanced Anti-Exploit

Advanced Anti-Exploit, powered by machine learning, is a proactive technology that prevents zero-day attacks executed through evasive exploits. It detects and blocks the newest cyberattacks in real time while addressing memory corruption vulnerabilities that may bypass other security measures. It protects commonly used applications, including browsers, Microsoft Office, Adobe Reader, and others. It monitors system processes and defends against threats such as unauthorized access and process hijacking.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Advanced Anti-Exploit.

Firewall

The Firewall controls the network and Internet access of applications. It provides automatic access to a comprehensive database of verified applications and safeguards the system from port scanning, limits Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) functionality, and notifies users when new nodes are added to a Wi-Fi network.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Firewall.

Network Attack Defense

The Network Attack Defense feature is powered by Bitdefender technology that identifies network attacks attempting to infiltrate endpoints through methods like brute-force attacks, network exploits, password stealers, drive-by-downloads, bots, and Trojans.

Patch Management

The Patch Management feature, seamlessly incorporated within GravityZone, ensures that operating systems and software applications remain up to date. It also provides an overview of patch status across your managed Windows and Linux endpoints.

Features include on-demand and scheduled patch scanning, automatic and manual patching, and missing patch reporting.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Patch Management.

Content Control

Content Control helps enforce company policies regarding network traffic, web access, data protection, and application control.

Administrators can define scan options and exclusions, schedule web access, allow or block specific categories or URLs, configure data protection rules, and control access to applications.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Content Control.Content Control

Device Control

Device Control effectively mitigates the risk of sensitive data leakage and malware infections that may result from external devices connected to endpoints. This is achieved through the application of blocking rules and exceptions via policy.

Supported devices include USB flash drives, Bluetooth devices, CD/DVD drives, and storage devices.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Device Control.

Full Disk Encryption

This technology enables comprehensive disk encryption on endpoints using BitLocker for Windows and FileVault or diskutil for macOS.

GravityZone facilitates easy encryption and decryption of boot and non-boot volumes while securely storing recovery keys in case of forgotten passwords.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Full Disk Encryption.

Security for Exchange

Security for Exchange offers a comprehensive suite of security features, including antimalware, antispam, antiphishing, and content filtering, fully integrated with Microsoft Exchange Server.

These technologies provide advanced protection while ensuring secure communication and preventing unauthorized access to user data.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Security for Exchange.

Sandbox Analyzer

Sandbox Analyzer protects against sophisticated threats by automatically analyzing suspicious files that lack known antimalware signatures.

Sandbox Analyzer executes files in a secure environment to identify malicious behavior, triggered by heuristics integrated with the Antimalware On-access module in the Bitdefender security agent installed on endpoints.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Sandbox Analyzer.

Endpoint Detection and Response

Endpoint Detection and Response is a real-time monitoring solution that detects and responds to cyber threats targeting endpoints such as laptops, servers, and mobile devices.

Endpoint Detection and Response provides a highly effective event correlation component that is designed to detect advanced threats or ongoing attacks.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR).

Security for Storage

Security for Storage provides real-time protection for network-attached storage and file-sharing systems, using antimalware services delivered through ICAP-compliant servers.

GravityZone Security Server instances can operate as ICAP servers, delivering antimalware services to Network-Attached Storage (NAS) devices and file-sharing systems. Multiple servers can be utilized in this role.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Security for Storage.

GravityZone Security for Containers

The GravityZone Security for Containers is a specialized Docker container that operates on an underlying Ubuntu 20.04 base image and leverages the official Debian package of BEST Linux.

The application operates as a container with elevated privileges on either a Kubernetes node or a container host.

This solution augments the security layers of the host operating system by offering server workload Endpoint Detection and Response, Advanced Anti-Exploit, and Antimalware scanning services to both the host operating system and the running containers.

For more information regarding this feature, refer to Container protection (deployed through a Security Container) and Container protection (deployed through BEST).

Endpoint Risk Analytics

Endpoint Risk Analytics identifies, assesses, and remediates Windows endpoints weaknesses via security risk scans, taking into account a vast number of indicators of risk.

The Risk Management dashboard, accessible in the GravityZone Control Center, provides an overview of your network risk status and offers guidance based on industry best practices.
