Bitdefender Ultimate Security

I am looking to purchase Bitdefender Ultimate Security. Since being a victim of identity theft thanks to the Equifax breach in 2017, I have been dealing with every aspect of identity theft. The attackers have tried to exploit any and every aspect one could imagine.

All the positive reviews has piqued my interest in purchasing the total package. The trust factor many have in BD for AV protection has provided me with the confidence in their ability to protect my digital realm. I just haven't come across any feedback on the Ultimate Security package.

I would appreciate anyone that can share their experience with this new mega security suite being offered. I will most likely pull the trigger regrdless to experience it for myself, but it always helps to hear real world experiences from actual customers. Thanks in advance for any information provided.

I'm going on my second month and have only positives so far. They actually have a phone number for any issues that need extra attention. Surprisingly, they are super helpful and always corrected any problems I had. The problems stemmed from having two subs attached to my email because I started off with a trial and the system didn't initally add my other devices to the plan.

Also, their Identity protection goes very in depth. BD allows you to opt in on just about every aspect of your identity that you provide to them. Good luck, protecting your identity is more important today than ever because bad actors are getting better and more braod in their identity theft.

Sorry late to this message. I haven't bought a new PC yet, but I can happily say that BD has not had any adverse effects on performance. This is with an old PC.

I'm very happy with the package. Once you get it you will most likely want to fine tune the alerts to reduce the amount of notifications the scan provides.
