Is Netgear Armor just using an old version of Bitdefender?

Get almost all your Netgear Armor questions answered by the official partner -> Netgear Armor powered by Bitdefender  

 

To my knowledge, there is no specific Netgear Armor version for the endpoints. Netgear is not involved what becomes available when.

 

Needless to say, the Bitdefender stuff (like the network vulnerability scanner) were specifically built and maintained for the Netgear routers.

 

Online and offline updates are the very same:

While the handling is the same for the Apps there are dedicated builds for Armor Bitdefender - sorry, my bad.
