Bitdefender Tops Breach Prevention and TCO in Latest AV-Comparatives EPR Tests

The cybersecurity industry has long debated whether prevention or detection is more important. The AV-Comparatives EPR Comparative Report 2025 settles the debate. By measuring both, it reveals that prevention-first is the winning strategy—stronger, simpler, and more cost-effective. Bitdefender GravityZone didn’t just participate in the evaluation; it led across the board. Bitdefender achieved the highest detection rate among all participating vendors and the lowest Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), underscoring a commitment to both security efficacy and operational efficiency. The evaluation also proves that modern security means blocking threats before they disrupt business.

Key Findings from the Bitdefender 2025 Cybersecurity Assessment Report

Data reveals an AI reality check, mounting pressure to remain silent after a breach, and an increased focus on reducing the attack surface. Bitdefender’s 2025 Cybersecurity Assessment Report provides a timely, data-focused snapshot of the current state of cybersecurity. Two data sources drive the findings: an independent survey of more than 1,200 IT and security professionals across the U.S., U.K., France, Germany, Italy, and Singapore; and a Bitdefender Labs analysis of 700,000 cyber incidents. This year, the third annual report reveals critical truths behind today’s evolving risks, internal challenges, and operational blind spots.

Bitdefender Achieves AV-Comparatives Anti-Tampering Certification

Bitdefender is one of just six vendors to pass the AV-Comparatives Anti-Tampering Certification Test for 2025. Bitdefender earned the coveted Anti-Tampering Certification by demonstrating it consistently thwarted key defense-evasion techniques used by cybercriminals and spoiled an attacker’s ability to bypass security controls. This certification reflects our ongoing commitment to keep organizations protected against evolving cyberattack techniques. 

Introducing Proactive Hardening and Attack Surface Reduction (PHASR) 

Attackers frequently gain initial access through compromised credentials or unmanaged devices, essentially 'logging in' rather than 'breaking in.' Once inside, relying on playbooks, they prioritize stealth, using Living off the Land (LOTL) tactics, which mask malicious activities as normal system operations. 

The Hidden Risks of Over-Relying on AI in Cybersecurity

Artificial intelligence (AI) and automation are game-changers in cybersecurity. AI-powered tools now help our teams detect threats faster, correlate data across systems, and even respond to incidents automatically. Platforms like XDR (Extended Detection and Response) consolidate insights from across endpoints, cloud services, email, and identity systems — all supercharged by machine learning. 

Introducing YARA Rules to Enhance Threat-Hunting Capabilities

On the 27th of November Bitdefender announced General Availability (GA) for YARA rules capabilities to GravityZone. With the addition of YARA rules into the GravityZone platform, security teams are empowered to create finely tuned and organization-specific detection patterns. This not only strengthens your organization's ability to detect known threats but also increases its resilience against emerging risks such as zero-day vulnerabilities and sophisticated malware variants. 

Introducing GravityZone Compliance

Regulatory compliance goes beyond legal obligations; it is a strategic approach to managing cyber risks and demonstrating the value of cybersecurity investments. You can use these regulations to identify, assess, and mitigate risks. By leveraging compliance reports and frameworks, you can proactively identify and mitigate security risks, reducing the likelihood of data breaches. 

Introducing GravityZone XDR Integration for Atlassian Cloud Applications

Atlassian Cloud simplifies the way teams collaborate and manage projects throughout the entire development lifecycle. Through Jira, they can streamline project management, Bitbucket facilitates their code collaboration, and Confluence centralizes knowledge sharing. While Atlassian Cloud is powerful, collaboration and project management tools, it's important to be aware of potential cybersecurity risks. Like any online platform, Atlassian Cloud can be subject to various threats, including social engineering, phishing attacks, and vulnerabilities in applications or plugins. 

Beyond the Entry Point: Why Lateral Movement is Key in Ransomware Tactics

It starts with a single compromise. A cleverly crafted email or an overlooked vulnerability serves as the opening act. But the true danger lies in what follows—the silent spread. Once inside, attackers don’t rush to their targets. Instead, they navigate laterally across the network, probing for weaknesses, escalating access, and positioning themselves to strike at the heart of your organization. This ability to move unnoticed, like water seeping through cracks, is what transforms a minor breach into a catastrophic ransomware event.
