Manual/offline update Bitdefender’s threat definitions for MacOS ?

BalooToo

We have a couple of compromised laptops that we need to keep offline until a full system scan is complete. How can we update the threat definitions for these before running the scan?

For Windows we can download the week.exe files but I can't find anything similar for mac.

Thanks.

For Bitdefender on macOS, there is currently no standalone or offline installer to update malware definitions. Unlike Windows, where you can download .exe update files, Mac versions of Bitdefender require an active internet connection to update threat definitions.

In conclusion, there isn’t a way to fully update Bitdefender on Mac while keeping it completely offline.
