Hitman Pro is a powerful security scanner that works alongside your existing antivirus without causing conflicts. Unlike traditional security software, it performs scans incredibly quickly—usually in less than 5 minutes—thanks to its innovative cloud-based technology.
How Cloud Scanning Works

Instead of relying solely on your computer’s resources, Hitman connects to remote servers that do the heavy lifting. This cloud-based approach offers several key benefits:
- Minimal system impact on your computer’s performance
- Works well even on older or less powerful machines
- Uses multiple premium scanning engines simultaneously
Premium Protection Engines
Hitman Pro leverages the combined power of multiple industry-leading antivirus engines:
- Emsisoft
- IKARUS
- BitDefender
- G Data
- Dr.Web
This multi-engine approach helps catch threats that a single scanner might miss.
Flexible Installation Options
One of Hitman’s standout features is its flexibility. You can:
- Run it without installation directly from a USB flash drive
- Launch it from a CD/DVD
- Use it from a local or network hard drive
- Install it traditionally if you prefer
Free Scanning with Smart Licensing
Hitman Pro offers a practical approach to licensing:
- Free scanning is available to everyone
- If no threats are detected, you’ll never need a license
- When malware is found, you automatically receive a free 30-day license to remove the threats
Internet Connection Requirements
Since Hitman Pro relies on cloud technology, a reliable internet connection is essential. The program constantly communicates with remote servers, so:
- A fast connection provides the best experience
- Slow or unstable connections may reduce the effectiveness
- Continuous internet access is necessary during scanning
Perfect Verification Tool
Hitman Pro serves as an excellent way to verify your security and check if your existing protection is working properly. It’s designed to provide a second opinion and catch anything your primary security software might have missed.
