G DATA

G DATA CyberDefense AG is a German software company that focuses on computer security, founded in 1985 and headquartered in Bochum. The company holds the distinction of creating the world's first antivirus software in 1987, introducing their Anti-Virus Kit (AVK) for Atari ST in 1988.

G DATA's security solutions use CloseGap technology at their core, where two scan engines work together—one developed in-house and the Bitdefender engine—to guarantee maximum security. Their proprietary DeepRay technology reveals camouflaged malware immediately, preventing hackers from simply changing malware disguises to trick antivirus software.

The product range includes antivirus software, endpoint protection, secure firewall, web protection, password manager, parental controls, safe banking features, system tuneup tools, file encryption, and cloud backup. Solutions are available for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS platforms.

With approximately 500 employees, G DATA's security solutions are available in 90 countries worldwide. Independent testing confirms 100% malware detection rates with minimal system impact, and the company offers high-quality customer support alongside extensive customisation options.
