Welcome to the tag category page for Device protection!
Microsoft Defender Antivirus is a security software that comes built-in with Windows. It offers real-time, always-on protection against viruses, malware, and other cyber threats. It has additional features for device protection, such as scanning, app and browser control, and account protection options. It is a major component of the next-generation protection solution in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. It can be accessed through the Windows Security app and needs to be turned on to provide full protection. While it has almost 100% real-time protection rates, it is recommended to have another antivirus software installed for complete endpoint protection and response, investigation, and remediation.
