16.6. Active Virus Control
Bitdefender Active Virus Control is an innovative proactive detection
technology which uses advanced heuristic methods to detect new potential
threats in real time.
Active Virus Control continuously monitors the applications running on the
computer, looking for malware-like actions. Each of these actions is scored
and an overall score is computed for each process. When the overall score
for a process reaches a given threshold, the process is considered to be
harmful and it is blocked automatically.
If Autopilot is off, you will be notified through a pop-up window about the
blocked application. Otherwise, the application will be blocked without any
notification. You can check what applications have been detected by Active
Virus Control in the Events window.
16.6.1. Checking detected applications
To check the applications detected by Active Virus Control, follow these
steps:
1. Open the Bitdefender window.
2. Click the icon at the top of the window and select Events from the
drop-down menu.
3. In the Events window, select Antivirus from the corresponding drop-down
menu.
4. Click an event to view details about it.
5. If you trust the application, you can configure Active Virus Control not to
block it anymore by clicking Allow and monitor. Active Virus Control will
continue to monitor excluded applications. If an excluded application is
detected to perform suspicious activities, the event will simply be logged
and reported to Bitdefender Cloud as detection error.
