Last verified 2026-09-26. STALE marks a plan we have not re-checked at its source in over 30 days. Every plan above is marked — we flag rather than silently retain. Official Bitdefender product pages bitdefender.com/en-us/solutions/antivirus.html and bitdefender.com/en-us/solutions/total-security.html and bitdefender.com/en-us/solutions/premium-security.html fetched 2026-06-14 with live USD pricing. Corroboration from security.org/antivirus/bitdefender/. The page this record cites as its source (https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/solutions/antivirus.html) is gone: on 2026-09-11 it answered 200 and redirected to https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/consumer/antivirus, both from a residential connection and from a datacenter on another continent — so the page is gone rather than withheld from one asker. Its second recorded capture of the same figures — security.org — still answers, and the figure stands as last read. Cross-checked against security.org.

Corrections to this record
Changes we made to our own record of Bitdefender, newest first: a figure read again on the vendor's page, a plan it no longer lists, a note. None of them is a price change by Bitdefender. Every correction on the site is in the corrections log.
-
Source replaced, price unchanged. https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/solutions/total-security.html answers 301 and lands on https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/consumer/total-security — the same page at the address the site now uses. The figure is unchanged and still stands on the day it was read; only the link the reader follows is corrected, so it no longer bounces through a redirect. Same host, same scheme, and the destination keeps every distinguishing word of the page's own name.

Dead citation disclosed, price unchanged. https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/solutions/antivirus.html was read twice on 2026-09-11: it answered 200 and redirected to https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/consumer/antivirus from a residential connection and answered 200 and redirected to https://www.bitdefender.com/en-us/consumer/antivirus from a datacenter on another continent. One reading is not evidence — 27 pages this sweep called gone answered the second machine perfectly well — so only the ones both vantages agree on are written down. The record now says the link is a dead end. No figure changed: a price read on a day was read on that day, and the page going away later does not unread it.

This standing as a plaque
Bitdefender currently holds a gold deskmark here — Rank 2 of 9 · Antivirus Software. Anyone may show it. There is nothing to apply for, nothing to pay, and displaying it changes no score: the standing comes from the published algorithm, which never reads commission data. We never ask anyone to show it, and its link carries rel="nofollow".
The image is drawn from our live data, so it follows the standing rather than freezing it: if Bitdefender moves up or down a tier, the plaque on your own site says so at our next publish. Nothing is tracked beyond the ordinary web-server log that records any image request.
