Windows 10 devices come with several security tools to help protect your computer. Windows Security, formerly known as Microsoft Defender, provides antivirus and malware protection, a firewall, and security settings to keep you secure.
Its real-time antimalware Core isolation, as well as hardware-level features (like Secure Boot and the security processor) can help you safeguard yourself against many types of threats, while not slowing down your computer. Windows Security lets you manage your account security, device sign-in, and other options.
Even even if your system is secure with the best security measures, passwords, and other security measures, malware can still be able to sneak in and cause issues. It’s crucial to regularly backup your data and to update your operating system. Windows 10 includes a variety of cloud storage and backup tools services that make it simple to protect your files.
Windows Backup, File History or Recovery Drives can be used to backup regularly your system, and restore it in case of emergency. It is also recommended to consider cloud-based solutions like OneDrive, Google Drive, and other backup tools for businesses.
It is important to limit access to your device by ensuring that none of your users have Administrator access rights. This will stop anyone who uses your computer to make significant changes that may put your data at risk. This can be done by creating individual Standard accounts or by restricting access to the device via Parental Controls.
