LogMeIn Antivirus - What AV engine runs it?
Does anyone know what AV product LogMeIn Antivirus really is? I don't think that LMI would build their own AV product from the ground up. I am just wondering what product it is based off of before ...
Forum Discussion
I believe I have proof it's bitdefender. I had no "bitdefender.com" traffic before testing LMIAV, now I see some on network logs. So this has to be the AV engine it's using. Or at least the signature list is from there.
Appears to be BitDefender - under c:\program files\
logmein\endpoint\threatscanner, there are many dll files containing BitDefender details and certifications

Hey all,
I can verify that the AV is BitDefender. I have been a long time BD GravityZone user and the LMI AV is based on the BD/Gravity Zone set up with most of the features removed. In my opinion it is very nice for the price.
If you are looking for a simply AB prodcut to combine with your other layers of security (UTM, EDR, DNS Filtering, etc.) this is a nice option.
Hope this helps.

- Policy Assignments
- Quick Local Scans Vs. On-Demand Full Scans
- Advanced Reporting
- Traffic Scans
- Device Controls
- Real-time Protection and Risk Alerts
