On the left-hand side are tabs for Protection, Privacy and Utilities. The first is to turn on ransomware protection, which is simply a case of clicking Enable. And above them is the oddly named ‘Autopilot’ which offers recommendations for actions you need to, or might want to take – the opposite of autopilot. You can edit these six shortcuts and replace them with the features you want to see. The Protection tab is a lot less intimidating than it once was and is much easier to understand There’s also a dedicated Wi-Fi scan that checks you’re not using weak encryption or authentication protocols. The the third – vulnerability – checks your device for things like out of date apps, system settings that have been changed from defaults and weak passwords. Getting back to the app itself, Quick Scan does what it says, as does the second – a full system scan. This again goes back to the naming convention: you’re effectively getting Total Security with a few extras bolted on. The eagle-eyed will notice that it says Bitdefender Total Security at the top even if you subscribe to Premium or Ultimate.
