Maybe that's pessos?

Can't imagine why you would ever consider this. Hope you can reimage back to an unpolluted install.

This is the antivirus you install on the CEOs laptop whenever you want the IT department to get more funding.

That office in Stara Zagora, Bulgaria is in the same town where I studied in high school and have few apartments. The Pazarska Street is not far away from them, I may check their office when I go. It’s a small city.

What's sad is imagine how much damage the antivirus would do to windows stability if one were to remove all of those "infections". Who knows what it would delete. That's just sad.

If they're a BD rebrand, hope they have a licence. If not, they will be hearing from the BD Legal Department.

FPs unfortunately are an issue on BD. You have to set it to ignore after a full scan. Advanced Threat Defence is very aggressive!

They are using Sophos signatures as @Shadowra has mentioned. They've just copied Bitdefender's design.

Tested the Ultimate version quickly: Very bad
Although the IS version uses Sophos, the Ultimate I could not even identify the engine ...

I had 3 system crashes during the test (BSOD) due to Waredot.

The interface is copied from Bitdefender.
But it's not at all stable, and Waredot uses .NET, which is clearly made lighter...

Spoiler: Waredot UI

I connect to my VPN (Sofia server: Bulgaria) and download several pieces of malware (Trojan, RAT, Botnet, Injector, Ransomware etc...).
It does not disable Microsoft Defender, which has detected all threats...
During extraction, Waredot shows me an infection with a name copied from Bitdefender. I'm telling you right now, he's not using Bitdefender... Everything is done to deceive the user... (hello Bitdefender's lawyers when they find out )

Spoiler: Malware

I start testing, but his ATC module doesn't detect anything...
The machine quickly gets infected, crashes with a BSOD and everything is encrypted...

Spoiler: Malware Execution

For me, this software is a scam.

- It uses a copy of the Bitdefender UI.
- It imitates Bitdefender's detections, but doesn't use them.
- It claims to be able to protect you, but it's completely false
- It has defensive shields that don't work

Don't use it!

and all of a sudden this Windows Defender thingy came up. So I called the number for Windows Microsoft Help and then this guy wanted me to buy a $300 program. Webdot or Waredot, or something like that.

It's just a copy of the Bitdefender total security interface (gui), I think installing Bitdefender is much better for you.

This is a scambaiting video about Waredot.

It says “Visus detected” and “Malrware quarantined”.
I don’t think further comment is necessary.

Whilst it may be using Bitdefender’s multiple OEM offerings, including White labels (which can be customised and modified) they may have omitted others to save money. ATC may be one of them. They may have considered it is not necessary.

The overall product as well as the company are a joke, if you ask me, an absolute paravane for something else. Mentioned in previous posts.
These guys are not passionate about security the way K7 are, despite being mediocre as well.
