Bitdefender, a global cybersecurity leader, has been named the only Visionary in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms (EPP) for the third consecutive year. This recognition highlights the innovative GravityZone platform, particularly its Proactive Hardening and Attack Surface Reduction (PHASR) solution, which tailors security to individual employee behavior, enhancing real-time risk management and compliance.
Bitdefender’s GravityZone platform integrates advanced endpoint protection (EPP), endpoint detection and response (EDR), extended detection and response (XDR), and cloud-native security. “To us, being named the only Visionary in this year’s Magic Quadrant signals that the industry is ready for a more intelligent, proactive approach to security,” said Daniel Daraban, vice president of products, Bitdefender Business Solutions Group. The platform’s PHASR solution, the industry’s first to deliver tailored hardening based on employee behavior, sets a new standard for proactive cybersecurity.
Bitdefender’s GravityZone achieved a 100% protection rate in the AV-Comparatives Business Security Test, blocking all 483 test cases, and scored 98.8% in malware protection. In MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations, it required only three alerts on average to identify incidents, compared to the industry median of 209, demonstrating exceptional accuracy and low false positives. These results underscore Bitdefender’s ability to deliver efficient, high-performance security solutions.
The platform earned a 4.8/5 rating from 214 reviews in the 2025 Gartner Peer Insights, securing a Customers’ Choice distinction. “Our overall experience with GravityZone has been excellent. It does a great job of protecting our endpoints while not causing any performance or stability issues once properly configured,” said an IT Director from a services enterprise. Bitdefender was also named a Strong Performer in The Forrester Wave: Extended Detection and Response, Q2 2024, reinforcing its market leadership.
Bitdefender’s recognition as the sole Visionary in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant reflects its forward-thinking approach to endpoint security. With GravityZone’s advanced capabilities and proven performance, Bitdefender empowers organizations to stay ahead of evolving cyber threats while ensuring compliance and operational efficiency.
