How are organizations using the Bitdefender GravityZone Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) to reduce risk? Verified customers answer this question in the paragraphs below.

Digital sovereignty is now a strategic imperative for many European organizations. According to a new IDC Market Note¹, “Sovereignty is not viewed just as a contractual consideration, but as an architectural one, and one of technical feasibility.”

96% of customers say they are willing to recommend Bitdefender.  We are pleased to announce that Bitdefender has been named a Customers’ Choice in the 2026 Gartner Peer Insights™ Voice of the Customer for Endpoint Protection Platforms (EPP) report. This year’s document included 18 vendors, yet just five received the Customers’ Choice distinction.Bitdefender received a 4.8 out of 5.0 overall rating*, resulting in placement in the upper-right quadrant of the report, with 96% of reviewers indicating they would recommend Bitdefender. The reviews considered for this report are for Bitdefender’s GravityZone, a comprehensive cybersecurity platform offering prevention, protection, detection, and response for organizations of all sizes.“The strongest validation comes from customers who rely on our technology every day,” said Andrei Florescu, president and general manager of Bitdefender Business Solutions Group. “In our opinion, this recognition reinforces the industry’s shift toward a more proactive, adaptive approach to cybersecurity that helps organizations reduce risk by aligning protection to how users actually work.”  

In today’s threat landscape—where ransomware, phishing, and supply chain attacks evolve faster than most teams can patch—a cybersecurity review isn’t just a checkbox exercise. It’s a critical opportunity to uncover blind spots before attackers do, and it also maps vulnerabilities to business impact, helping teams justify future investments. Rather than reacting to headlines about the latest zero-day exploit, leaders can focus on what truly reduces risk and improves resilience, turning risk into readiness.

Stop a threat before it executes, and you maintain business continuity. Respond after it runs, and you increase the odds of business disruption and costly remediation. Security solutions vary significantly in their ability to block threats pre-execution, and the latest AV-Comparatives Enterprise Advanced Threat Protection test quantifies this gap in stark terms: Bitdefender blocked 87% of threats at the pre-execution stage, while other vendors blocked just 36% of attacks pre-execution, on average. This 51-percentage-point advantage reveals more than superior detection rates—it demonstrates a fundamental architectural difference in how security solutions approach protection.   

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.
