Show reputation rating about a file & submit False Positive directly in the product
I am not sure if Bitdefender has reputation cloud or something like that. Based on my experience with ESET, Kaspersky and Norton, I find the reputation quary feature (ESET's LiveGrid, Kaspersky's KSN and Norton's file insight) very useful when deciding whether or not to open a file. For example, if I want to open a file…
