Security tips for gamers

During the Paris Games Week, players are being advised to enhance the security of their PCs, as risks can come not only from downloaded files but also from fake messages, trapped links, or imitated login pages that can lead to data loss.

Bitdefender offers discounted protection

Bitdefender is offering several solutions to better protect devices, with reduced prices for the first year. A gaming account can contain purchases, personal data, and accumulated progress over years, and losing it due to phishing can be particularly frustrating.

How the software works

Bitdefender detects threats in the background without disrupting the use of the PC, protecting against viruses, ransomware, and online scams, with additional tools depending on the chosen package. The security software monitors threats in real time and reports suspicious emails while allowing uninterrupted use of games and other activities.

Three security packages available

Three offers are available: Antivirus Plus, priced at 25 euros for the first year instead of the usual 49.99 euros, protects up to three devices. Total Security costs 47.50 euros for the first year instead of 94.99 euros, covering up to five devices and including a password manager.

Premium Security features

Premium Security is available for 55 euros for the first year instead of 109.99 euros, with a Premium VPN included and unlimited VPN traffic. The three formulas are compatible with Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS.

Choosing the right package

For a gamer primarily seeking protection against viruses and malicious software, Antivirus Plus is an accessible entry point. Total Security may be more suitable for those using multiple devices and wanting a password manager.

Different needs, different packages

Premium Security is aimed at users who want to combine several security and privacy tools, with its Premium VPN allowing unlimited traffic and additional protections against scams and online tracking. The choice of package depends mainly on the devices to protect and the functions that are useful on a daily basis.
