Question What is BitDefender Doing with Network Threat Protection?

[accesscpu_]

I'm running the latest version of BitDefender Total Security on Windows 11. Under Online Threat Protection > Network Threat Protection, I have this option toggled on.

But I'm wondering what it's doing exactly? It says it blocks exploits and ransomware (among other things), but I'm not sure what other info it's collecting about my system.

This is in the same section where I have many options disabled, as they pertain to monitoring my searching and visited websites (something I don't wish). Would like to get more info on how the Network Threat Protection is functioning.
