13.1. How do I make sure my online transaction is
secure?
To make sure your online operations remain private, you can use the browser
provided by Bitdefender to protect your transactions and home banking
apps.
Bitdefender Safepay™ is a secured browser designed to protect your credit
card information, account number or any other sensitive data you may enter
while accessing different online locations.
To keep your online activity secure and private:
1. Click Privacy on the navigation menu on the Bitdefender interface.
2. In the Safepay pane, click Open Safepay.
3. Click the button to access the Virtual Keyboard.
Use the Virtual Keyboard when typing sensitive information such as your
passwords.
13.2. How do I use file vaults?
The Bitdefender File Vault enables you to create encrypted,
password-protected logical drives (or vaults) on your computer where you
can securely store your confidential and sensitive documents. Physically,
the vault is a file stored on the local hard drive having the .bvd extension.
When you create a file vault, two aspects are important: the size and the
password. The default 100 MB size should be enough for your private
documents, Excel files and other similar data. However, for videos or other
large files you may need more space.
To securely store your confidential or sensitive files or folders in Bitdefender
file vaults:
● Create a file vault and set a strong password for it.
To create a vault, right-click an empty area of the desktop or in a folder on
your computer, point to Bitdefender > Bitdefender File Vault and select
Create File Vault.
