Defend yourself from the latest threats and stay safe 24/7
Microsoft Defender is a fast, powerful anti-virus application that can be downloaded free Windows PCs. It protects your computer from malicious software, ransomware, and malware. It also updates itself with the most recent definitions, and stays in touch with cloud servers to keep you protected against new threats.
Quick and easy to use, Windows Defender has a simple, intuitive interface with tiny checkmarks or warning signs that show you the security status of your device. This helps you easily identify problems and take action.
Its features include a basic firewall, virus scanning, parental control, system health dialogs, and identity monitoring. It's available for download from the official Microsoft Store or third-party sites.
The best thing about Windows Defender is that it's free, and regularly updated to ensure it provides the most effective protection against the latest threats. It also comes with a global support network that can be accessed through an online portal or live chat.
For business customers, Microsoft Defender brings together machine learning, big-data analysis, in-depth threat resistance research, and the Microsoft cloud infrastructure to deliver improved device protection. It works in tandem with the company's next-generation endpoint protection.
In addition, Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscribers can help protect the devices and identities of people in their household with the family organizer role in Microsoft Defender. When other family members install Microsoft Defender and choose to share their device security or identity monitoring status, they will be visible on the family organizer's Microsoft Defender dashboard.
