Bitdefender Installer is the installation and management utility for Bitdefender antivirus and endpoint security on macOS. It handles deployment, configuration, and updates for Bitdefender's security tools across mixed Mac environments containing both Intel and Apple Silicon machines. The installer supports downloading both Intel x86 and Apple Silicon native packages, allows administrators to set security policies, manage system extensions and full disk access permissions, and push updates to managed Macs in enterprise environments. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionA native Apple Silicon build of Bitdefender Installer has been confirmed running on real Macs in our community. To upgrade from the Intel version to the native build, download the latest installer package directly from your Bitdefender admin portal—the portal will automatically serve the correct architecture-specific package for your Mac. If you are deploying Bitdefender across a mixed environment of Intel and Apple Silicon Macs, the admin portal allows you to download both the Intel x86 and Apple Silicon kits side-by-side; select the Apple Silicon package for your own Mac. If Bitdefender was installed via an MDM (mobile device management) system like Kandji or Jamf, contact your IT administrator to request the native Apple Silicon version be pushed to your machine—they will need to update the deployment configuration to use the Apple Silicon installer package. After the native build is installed, your existing security policies, system extension permissions, and preferences will be preserved.
