1997 – 2001


The 1997 design is a mostly yellow rectangle with a black base and text on it. The latter is written in three lines of varying size from top left to bottom right, including ‘professional’, ‘antivirus’ & ‘expert’. The colors and fonts also varied.

2001 – 2011


The original BitDefender logo was created in 2001 and stayed with the software brand for ten years. It was a simple yet strong and modern Nadir in a red, white, and black color palette, where red and white were used for the emblem, and black with red — for the inscription. The emblem, placed on the left from the logotype, featured a solid red circle with white angular lines, which created an interesting geometric pattern. As for the lettering, it was set in the lowercase of an italicized sans-serif typeface with smooth lines and straight cuts of the letters.

2011 – Today

The current Bitdefender logo is a modern and meaningful piece of art. It looks elegant and stylish, showing the main purpose of the software — protection.

The redesign of 2011 replaced the old circular emblem of the Bitdefender with an abstract image of the Dacian wold, executed in an elongated curved line with three spaces and three sharp short elements coming out of it, forming the wolf’s head.

The red emblem starts above the letter “B” of the wordmark and moves up and right, finishing above the last letter of the inscription, “R”.

The Bitdefender nameplate is executed in a sleek and modern typeface with sharp and elegant serifs, which add a sense of style and quality.

The Dacian Wolf is a symbol of strength and protection, two qualities that characterize the software most.

The black and red color palette of the Bitdefender visual identity is a reflection of a powerful and professional brand, which values progress and is constantly developing in order to meet all the needs of its users.

Font and Color

The sleek and edgy lettering from the primary Bitdefender logo is set in a custom designer typeface, which is based on Kirkly SemiBold, or Mainlux Bold, but with the ends of the bars triangularly sharp and elongated. The title case inscription looks very modern and cool.
As for the color palette of the Bitdefender visual identity, it is composed of black and red, with the most powerful duo, which shows professionalism and stability, and at the same time adds a sense of excellence and style.
