Unfollow the traditional
Unlike traditional solutions that patch together pre-virtualization and pre-cloud Windows applications, Bitdefender GravityZone combines all the security services an organization needs into a single delivery platform and provides the best combination of protection and performance.
Add-Ons
GravityZone Integrated Patch Management
Unpatched systems leave organizations susceptible to malware incidents, outbreaks, and data breaches. Keep your OS and Applications up to date across the entire Windows install base - workstations, physical servers and virtual servers with GravityZone Patch Management.
GravityZone Full Disk Encryption
GravityZone FDE protects data for the entire endpoint hard drive by leveraging the encryption mechanisms provided by Windows (BitLocker) and Mac (FileVault). It takes advantage of the native device encryption to ensure full compatibility and maximized performance. GZ FDE is integrated into the GravityZone Console and Agent, with no additional agent to deploy or key management server to install. The use of existing endpoint security infrastructure to manage Full Disk Encryption enables fully centralized deployment with minimal administrative effort.
Security for Amazon Web Services
Bitdefender Security for Amazon Web Services can be purchased separately and managed from the same cloud-hosted console as Bitdefender GravityZone Advanced Business Security.
Benefits:
Comprehensive and cost-effective protection
Bitdefender GravityZone Advanced Business Security gives organizations efficient protection for physical or virtual workstations and servers and for mobile devices, with each system taking one unit from the license. Exchange email protection is included with no extra costs and the number of mailboxes covered is proportional to the number of units in the license.

What makes Bitdefender GravityZone Advanced Business Security the best?
Features | What this means for your business |
---|---|
#1 ranked antimalware, anti-ransomware, anti-exploit and antispam technologies Bitdefender uses constant innovation to catch everything from everyday malware to advanced attacks and ransomware waves that other solutions miss, while having the smallest possible impact on system performance. The only solution to have won all VBSpam awards to date, Bitdefender also consistently scores top spam detection rates. |
Maintain high productivity and spotless reputation by avoiding data breaches Bitdefender security gives your business the advantage against every type of malware attack, and helps you avoid business disruption, loss of Intellectual property, exposure of customer information, and the resulting financial impact. |
Security for workstations, servers and mobile devices, plus email protection and antispam from the same console You can protect workstations, servers, or mobile devices (available with the on-premise console). The number of servers should not exceed 35% of the total number of devices in the license. When purchasing Bitdefender GravityZone Advanced Business Security you also receive protection for a number of Exchange mailboxes equal to 150% of the total number of devices within your license. |
Comprehensive security and efficient management Bitdefender GravityZone Advanced Business Security provides comprehensive protection and management. This helps modern IT environments address all attack vectors while eliminating the overhead of managing multiple solutions. |
Firewall, Intrusion Detection, Device Control, Web Filtering, Search Advisor, Web and Application Control included The firewall, IDS, and web filtering capabilities are essential to protect against Internet-based threats such as hacking and phishing. Bitdefender GravityZone Advanced Business Security gives you the power to remotely restrict or block employee access to certain applications or web pages. |
Get full protection against all types of attacks, and improve productivity Unlike other solutions, which lack web protection and device control or charge a premium for such capabilities, Bitdefender GravityZone Advanced Business Security includes these features at no extra cost. Moreover, with User and Web Control capabilities admins are able to restrict access to websites or applications that harm productivity. |
Streamlined deployment and security management Organizations can use the cloud-hosted management console, or deploy the console locally. Based on hardened Linux machines wrapped in virtual appliances, the Bitdefender on-premise console is configured and ready to use under 30 minutes. Bitdefender automatically detects and removes the previous AV solution upon install. |
Save time with more efficient management The bottom-up GravityZone design and integration with Active Directory, Citrix XenServer, or VMware vCenter (available on-premise) allow you to save time and streamline security processes. Rolling out protection to a large number of endpoints is also simplified with auto-detection, uninstall of legacy solutions, and mass remote deployment mechanisms. |
Smart Centralized Scanning - optimized performance Bitdefender allows you to run up to 30% more virtual machines compared to traditional solutions by optimizing and centralizing scan tasks. Unlike solutions that rely on the VMware vShield driver, Bitdefender covers any virtual environment and provides load balancing capabilities, as well as memory and process scanning. |
Save money by minimizing security resource consumption The scanning offload and the advanced caching mechanisms minimize resource consumption for virtual or physical machines. This allows you to save money by running more machines on the same infrastructure. |
24/7 Support is included Free Support is available in English 24/7 through phone, email, or chat. |
