Microsoft Defender – Windows Security
Microsoft Defender on par with the best antivirus.
Microsoft Defender is the security solution that Microsoft offers for free with the Windows operating system.
The latest data from the analysis firm AV-TEST They claim that it has achieved sufficient protection so that the user does not need to obtain third-party software.
And we are talking about consumption, because companies and experts will have to use other, more sophisticated solutions.
Las amenazas de ciberseguridad son incesantes, utilizan toda clase de técnicas y cada vez son mucho más destacadas, con virus, vermes, troyanos y toda clase de malware acumulándose semana a semana intentando de infectar ordenadores y redes.
On an OS like Windows, the most widely used and therefore the most attacked, probably even the most sensible user when using their device will have to deal with some kind of infection.
And hence the need to use some kind of program to assist us in the task.
It's been some time since Microsoft gives antivirus for your OS. And we remember that «Security Essentials» that arrived installed for Windows 7. From there the solution within Microsoft It has changed its name, but the most essential thing is that it has improved a lot and caught up with the most outstanding free antivirus.
Microsoft Defender: Getting Better
AV-Test is a German center of expertise in testing resolutions of security and publishes results from time to time.
It is one of the few of its kind that carries out continuous testing on each and every system and those of us who have followed it for a decade have seen that it works in a fairly independent way.
A few years ago he qualified Windows Defend as "he worst antivirus» of the free and did not advise their use.
A few years later the situation changed.
The group examines the resolutions by evaluating three sets: suitability and level of detection, the load on the system and its ease of use.
Since it assigns a maximum of six points for each, resolutions have the possibility of scoring a maximum of 18 points.
AV-Test has analyzed 20 antiviruses at consumer levels for Windows and it is worth highlighting the very, very high average score of all of them.
And the great advance of Microsoft Defender by achieving the maximum score and rubbing shoulders with solutions from industry giants such as Kaspersky, Bitdefender and Eset.
Naturally, these companies also offer free solutions that can be be used in Windows, but if you do not want to use other programs, Windows Defender is an excellent option.
