Overview

BitDefender Antivirus v10 was designed with a centralized management console, which allows the configuration of the protection options for all BitDefender modules. In other words, all you need to do is open the management console in order to have access to all modules: Antivirus, Antispyware and Update.

On the left side of the management console you can see the module selector:
