Security guide: protect your data from cybercriminals
In the first section of this guide I am going to focus on security. I'm going to talk to you about different tools that you have at your disposal to prevent your PC from ending up full of viruses, Trojans and spyware.
Get to know the Windows Security app
I want to start by talking about the Windows Security application. Microsoft deserves recognition in this regard, since the integrated Windows antivirus, formerly known as Windows Defender, is one of the most effective. And I'm not saying it. Independent studies like AV-Test say so. With this tool, you get a very high level of protection for the price you pay. Of course, since it is an integrated service, it is completely free. If you do a quick search with the term “Windows security”, you will access the main screen of this tool. You will find the following sections:
Antivirus protection, including protection against ransomware attacks.
Account protection.
Firewall and network protection.
Application and browser control.
Device security, to configure data encryption or secure boot.
Additionally, there is a section for family security, which is based on information from each member's respective Microsoft accounts. Disabling Windows Defender is possible, but only with advanced tricks. By default, it remains active and scans the computer from time to time.
Make backup copies continuously
Having a backup of your data can save you from disaster, whatever it may be. In fact, one of the new features of Windows 11 22H2 Moment 4 has been the inclusion of a specific tool for this task, which is based on the Microsoft cloud, OneDrive.
