Can BitDefender detect Kernel Bootkits?

Inversible

Hello,

I downloaded some game cheats for testing purposes,

I know that the cheat uses kernel level drivers to bypass the Anti Cheat system which is using Kernel level as well, I'm positive I've been ratted since I downloaded it because passwords have changed and my PC is slow / high CPU/GPU temperature I think there is a silent miner maybe working on the memory, I don't really know, that's why I wanted to ask here if there is anything I can do to detect and remove this kind of kernel level malware/root-bootkit?
