Bitdefender 2013 - Safego: Social Media Protection

These days it is exceptionally unusual to encounter an individual who isn’t a skilled user of all things social media. At the very least, even the technologically inept have Twitter profiles and Facebook accounts – even if they don’t really know how to use them. A 70-year old grandmother, who doesn’t quite understand the mechanics of a computer (like how to turn the thing on), can still appreciate the value of social media bringing her family closer.

The beauty of social media platforms is that they are accessible to just about anyone – regardless of their level of gadgetry know-how. The scary thing is, social media platforms are also hunting grounds for the evils that lurk in the dark corners of the internet: scams, stalker-like apps and malware. Anyone is a possible target; and anyone without Bitdefender Safego might just as well start quacking like a sitting duck. 

Avoid being a Facebook sitting duck with Bitdefender Safego

Safego, very simply, scans your social networking account for any threats to your personal cyber security. It goes beyond the usual built-in privacy controls and will alert you of any personal information leaks, will safeguard accounts from e-attacks and only allows you to access safe content. No more falling for the how-many-people-have-viewed-your-profile and other crazy malarkey… But wait! There's more: an efficient Bitdefender spam repellent also helps keep your message flow free of all kinds of annoying blah blah.
