ThreatDown (Malwarebytes)

Former Malwarebytes business unit bundling NGAV, EDR and patching

Overview

ThreatDown began as the business unit of Malwarebytes and in 2026 became an independent company with its own product roadmap, board and investors, while Marcin Kleczynski remains chief executive of both companies[20]. It sells four bundles: Core, which combines next-generation antivirus with EDR-based protection; Advanced, which adds detection and recovery with built-in ransomware rollback; Elite MDR, with 24/7 human-led monitoring and response; and Ultimate MDR Plus, a fully managed service across devices and identities[11]. The feature list across bundles includes device control, application blocking, vulnerability assessment, browser phishing protection, patch management, host firewall management and drive encryption, and DNS filtering, email security, server protection and mobile security are optional add-ons[11]. Identity threat detection and premium support are add-ons below Ultimate. The pricing page offers a 20% saving for three-year terms, but per-endpoint prices did not render at the time of review and the page does not clearly separate which features belong to which bundle, so buyers should confirm inclusions in writing[11]. ThreatDown was not among the products in the AV-TEST and AV-Comparatives business rounds cited in this list.
