Windows 10 and looking for protection solutions? With Windows 10, you no longer have to install an antivirus program as needed in Windows 7. From Windows 8 onwards, Windows has an integrated antivirus called Windows Defender.
But let's see what happens in the area of computer security ...
From time to time we have read incredible stories, published by very reliable sites, such as the following published by Reuters, which mentions as sources of two former employees in Kaspersky Lab:
Kaspersky Lab, the maker of the popular antivirus, has for years (10 years) developed false malware to harm its competitors.
Over time, new stories about every security software on the market are emerging, making end-users interested, wondering what's really going on. Recent story was US refusal to "import" computer security from Russia.
I do not want to take part in the conspiracy theories we read around as I believe that all these companies exist because the malware in circulation reaches everyone ...
But I can not fail to mention the following link, which does not talk about conspiracies but about facts:
Read our earlier post: Finally, do I trust Antivirus?
By reading from the link above, we find that there are antiviruses that are not sufficient. Let's say that every security technology is bi-directional. Since they can write better software, security companies can and scammers really develop smart malware.
Of course there will always be and the charlatans that sell protection, or have it free of charge for millions of ads.
Pay Per Antivirus: Do You Spend Your Money?
What am I doing now;
We recommend that you use a good antivirus program and a good anti-malware program. The collaboration of the two applications will protect you against most of the threats currently on the Internet today: viruses, spyware, ransomware, potentially unwanted programs (PUPs)
Which of them will you use? Do you have to pay money?
In short: Windows Defender is good enough, and you do not have to pay anything (rather to put it better, you already have it paid).
With Windows 10, you already have an antivirus program. Windows Defender is built into Windows 10 and automatically scans the programs you open, downloads frequently updates via Windows Update, and provides an option that you can use for in-depth analysis. It does not slow down your system and, for the most part, remains in obscurity, something we can not say about most antivirus programs.
For a short time, Microsoft's antivirus went into comparative tests but last began to recover, offering and detecting viruses from Cloud.
So, briefly, yes: Windows Defender is good enough, as long as you use a trusted malware application.
Other antivirus programs may occasionally have some better results in monthly AV-TEST trials, but they contain a bunch of tools that I can not even see personally.
Browser extensions that set browsers, unnecessary registry cleaners, and many insecure junkware, let's say that all of this can track your browsing habits, and bring money to the companies that serve them. so they can make money.
Please note that Windows 10 also has the SmartScreen filter that prevents you from downloading and running some malware, regardless of the security application you are using. Also, Chrome and Firefox feature Google's Safe Browsing, which prevents downloading of known malware.
Windows 10 Additional Security
As for Anti-Malware now, its free application Malwarebytes, will cover you. Do not be frightened by the "trial", the application will continue to run after the first 15 days.
Unlike traditional antivirus programs, Malwarebytes is able to detect "potentially unwanted programs" (PUP) and other junkware.
From the 3.0 version onwards, it also contains an anti-exploit feature that aims to block common exploits on programs, even if they are with zero-day attacks that have never been detected before.
And not to be forgotten
There is no security!
It's all about code. To put it simply, that locks unlocks. So all of this can not be a panacea in the matter of Internet security.
Example code in simple sentences:
One "safe solution" is to not have a secure connection to the Internet, but you can still not return true because of local USB (if) attacks.
However, you can be sure that you will never be a victim of a function-ass, if (if) unless you are doing the job of putting you at high risk for return (true) attacks.
