Why hasn’t the option to manually delete the threat history in the Dashboard?

Why hasn’t the option to manually delete the threat history in the Dashboard (Threats tab) been implemented in Bitdefender Central?

Currently, users can clear or mark notifications as read using the bell icon, but the threats displayed in the Dashboard cannot be manually removed and only disappear automatically after 30 days. Is there a specific security, compliance, or technical reason why manual deletion of the threat history is not available?

Unfortunately, although the program itself works well and I am generally satisfied with its performance, the lack of this option significantly affects my overall experience. For privacy and management reasons, the inability to manually remove threat history is a decisive drawback for me.

If this feature is not introduced, I will not continue using the product and will cancel my subscription once the current license expires.

Hello,

Manual deletion of threat history is not currently available in Central because these records are designed to maintain integrity and provide a consistent 30-day activity log. Allowing removal could affect transparency of past security events. And I think these records could also prove useful in the event troubleshooting is required, or one needs to go back to a recent security event for some reason. Also, having a 30-day log allows users to summarize the security events on a monthly basis and compare between months, so you can actually get an overview on how many threats were blocked in a specific time frame.
If privacy is a concern, note that in subscriptions supporting multiple members (such as family plans), access to Dashboard information is role-based. Only the account administrator can view certain limited details in Central, while other members do not have access.
Central is an online platform that serves as your user account. As the account owner, it is normal to have access to this information so you can manage security of the protected devices accordingly. This means that Central must inform you on security events taking place on all protected devices, and it does need to keep a record of them, at least for a while, for convenience.
