Virus Scanner Plus
Virus Scanner Plus is an antivirus and malware detection utility for macOS from Bitdefender, designed to scan files, folders and the entire system for viruses, trojans, potentially unwanted programs and other threats. It provides on-demand scanning, quarantine capabilities, and security notifications. The app targets Mac users who want additional antivirus protection alongside macOS's built-in security features.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionBitdefender is an established security vendor that actively maintains products across multiple platforms. However, we found no direct information about whether a native Apple Silicon build of Virus Scanner Plus is currently available. Contact Bitdefender directly through their support site to confirm whether a native build exists or is planned. Given that Apple is removing Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), you should verify this well in advance — if Bitdefender has no native version in development, you will need to transition to a different macOS antivirus solution that runs natively on Apple Silicon before that deadline. Bitdefender's main product lines (Total Security, Internet Security) may have clearer Apple Silicon support; enquire about those as alternatives if Virus Scanner Plus itself is not being updated.
