What is Windows Defender

Microsoft Defender offers endpoint protection for Windows 10 and 11. It uses machine learning technology to give you protection from different types of threats. Microsoft Defender is a free software that comes pre-installed with Windows 10 and 11. It comes with some unique features to give you absolute security.

Microsoft Defender protects your device even if you are using non-Microsoft antivirus software. It will work in passive mode and protect your device along with your antivirus. It also gives you utter security against malicious websites, links, and other harmful software.

Modes of Microsoft Defender

Active Mode- In this scenario, it works as a primary antivirus and protects your device against all harmful threats. Also, it scans your data and removes the threats, and keeps a report of removed threats.

Passive Mode- In this, it works as a secondary antivirus. It scans your files and computer but doesn’t remove the threats. It informs you about the threats but does not remove them.

Disabled- If uninstalled or disabled, then it doesn’t offer any protection. We would not recommend disabling your Microsoft defender.

How effective is Microsoft Defender?

Microsoft defender delivers absolute internet security against most viruses, malware, spyware, and other threats. We would recommend using it for a personal computer. But if you are using your computer for business and you have some sensitive data, then we advise you to have some strong antivirus protection.
