GravityZone Business Security is Bitdefender's step up from its small business bundle, and it is the more natural fit for servers. Bitdefender says it covers desktops, laptops and physical or virtual servers, and its modules run on Windows, Linux and macOS endpoints. The included modules are Modern Endpoint Protection, Network Attack Defense and Risk Management. A useful detail for admins is the console choice: you can manage from the cloud, or run the Control Center as an OVA, XVA or VHD virtual appliance on VMware, Citrix or Hyper-V. The published system requirements are modest, starting at 512 MB of free RAM. On the US store the default 10 devices cost $269.49 per year, a 30% discount on $384.99, which works out to about $2.25 per device per month. The online order range stops at 100 devices, and EDR is not among the listed modules for this tier.
