BullGuard has introduced a proprietary next-generation anti-malware engine that detects the latest zero-day threats across all BullGuard products – BullGuard Premium Protection, BullGuard Internet Security and BullGuard Antivirus, and a first-of-its kind, real-time Home Network Scanner (exclusive to BullGuard Premium Protection) that features both an internal and external scanner.
The industry-first, external scanner forms a critical piece of a home’s cybersecurity defense as it acts as a penetration test to determine if the home network is accessible to outside hackers.
The Home Network Scanner is capable of monitoring multiple networks at a time, runs automatically in the background, and proactively scans the home Wi-Fi network and all connected smart devices on it 24/7. Anytime a new device connects to the monitored network(s), the real-time Home Network Scanner performs a deep scan and automatically displays its status.
BullGuard has transformed itself over the course of the past 18 months from a traditional consumer AV player to a cybersecurity leader. With today’s announcement, BullGuard now offers advanced, next-generation, multi-layered cybersecurity on both the endpoint and network layers – an industry first.
