BullGuard has announced the release of its all-in-one security suite, BullGuard Internet Security 2015.
Additions since the 2014 release include an "unwanted application" tool which detects and blocks browser hijackers.
New "resource monitoring" technology sees the package adjust its activities to match what you’re doing. Play a 3D game, for instance, or switch to battery power, and the suite automatically uses less resources.
Regular weekly reports keep you up-to-date on everything BullGuard has been doing for you. As many attacks will be blocked in the background without you ever realizing, that can be surprisingly useful.
There’s also an improved antivirus engine, and the interface has been optimized for usability.
Assessing the quality of the finished product isn’t easy. It all depends who you ask: BullGuard has had a poor run of results in recent AV-Comparatives Real-World Protection Tests, but AV-Test generally scores it highly in every area.
Still, there are plenty of features: antivirus, firewall, antispam, phishing protection, parental controls, PC optimization, an online backup tool with 5GB free storage, the list goes on. And while the suite wouldn’t be our first choice, if you’ll use all that functionality then it’s worth a look.
Trial builds of BullGuard Internet Security 2015 are available now.
