Windows 10 includes Windows Security, which provides the latest antivirus protection. Your device will be actively protected from the moment you start Windows 10. Windows Security continually scans for malware (malicious software), viruses, and security threats. In addition to this real- time protection, updates are downloaded automatically to help keep your device safe and protect it from threats. Windows 10 in S mode. Some features will be a little different if you're running Windows 10 in S mode. Because this mode is streamlined for tighter security, the Virus & threat protection area has fewer options. But don't worry—the built-in security of this mode automatically prevents viruses and other threats from running on your device, and you'll receive security updates automatically. For more info, see Windows 10 in S mode FAQ. Important security info. Windows Security is built-in to Windows 10 and includes an antirvirus program called Microsoft Defender Antivirus. (In previous versions of Windows 10, Windows Security is called Windows Defender Security Center). If you have another antivirus app installed and turned on, Microsoft Defender Antivirus will turn off automatically. If you uninstall the other app, Microsoft Defender Antivirus will turn back on automatically. If you're having problems receiving Windows Security updates, see Fix Windows Update errors and the Windows Update FAQ. For info on how to uninstall an app, see Repair or remove an app in Windows 10. To change your user account to an admin account, see Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10. Understand and customize Windows Security features. Windows Security is your home to manage the tools that protect your device and your data: Virus & threat protection - Monitor threats to your device, run scans, and get updates to help detect the latest threats. (Some of these options are unavailable if you're running Windows 10 in S mode.) Account protection - Access sign-in options and account settings, including Windows Hello and dynamic lock. Firewall & network protection - Manage firewall settings and monitor what’s happening with your networks and internet connections. App & browser control - Update settings for Microsoft Defender SmartScreen to help protect your device against potentially dangerous apps, files, sites, and downloads. You'll have exploit protection and you can customize protection settings for your devices. Device security - Review built-in security options to help protect your device from attacks by malicious software. Device performance & health - View status info about your device’s performance health, and keep your device clean and up to date with the latest version of Windows 10. Family options - Keep track of your kids’ online activity and the devices in your household. To customize how your device is protected with these Windows Security features select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security or select the button below. Open Windows Security settings. Status icons indicate your level of safety: Green means there aren’t any recommended actions right now. Yellow means there is a safety recommendation for you. Red is a warning that something needs your immediate attention. Run a malware scan manually. When you're concerned about risks to a specific file or folder, you can right-click the file or folder in File Explorer, then select Scan with Microsoft Defender . If you suspect there's malware or a virus on your device, you should immediately run a quick scan. This is much faster than running a full scan on all your files and folders. Run a quick scan in Windows Security. Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security and then Virus & threat protection . Open Windows Security settings. Under Current threats , select Quick scan (or in previous versions of Windows 10, under Threat history , select Scan now ). If the scan doesn't find any issues, but you're still concerned, you may want to check your device more thoroughly. Run an advanced scan in Windows Security. Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security and then Virus & threat protection . Under Current threats , select Scan options (or in previous versions of Windows 10, under Threat history , select Run a new advanced scan ). Select one of the scan options: Full scan (check files and programs currently running on your device) Custom scan (scan specific files or folders) Microsoft Defender Offline scan (run this scan if your device has been, or could potentially be, infected by a virus or malware). Learn more about Microsoft Defender Offline. Select Scan now . Note: Because of streamlined security, this process isn't available if you're running Windows 10 in S mode. Schedule your own scan. Even though Windows Security is regularly scanning your device to keep it safe, you can also set when and how often the scans occur. Schedule a scan. Select the Start button, type schedule tasks in the Search box, and in the list of results, select Task Scheduler . In the left pane, select the arrow (>) next to Task Scheduler Library to expand it, do the same with Microsoft > Windows , and then scroll down and select the Windows Defender folder. In the top-center pane, select Windows Defender Scheduled Scan. (Point to the choices to see the full names.) In the Actions pane on the right, scroll down and then select Properties . In the window that opens, select the Triggers tab, and then select New . Set your preferred time and frequency, and then select OK . Review the schedule and select OK . Note: Because of streamlined security, this process isn't available if you're running Windows 10 in S mode. Turn Microsoft Defender Antivirus real-time protection on or off. Sometimes you may need to briefly stop running real-time protection. While real-time protection is off, files you open or download won't be scanned for threats. However, real-time protection will soon turn on automatically again to protect your device. Turn real-time protection off temporarily. Select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security and then Virus & threat protection > Manage settings . (In previous versions of Windows 10, select Virus & threat protection > Virus & threat protection settings .) Open Windows Security settings. Switch the Real-time protection setting to Off and choose Yes to verify. Note: Because of streamlined security, this process isn't available if you're running Windows 10 in S mode. Windows security is preventing file downloads. This problem is officially interfering with my business. Any downloaded file with an EXE extension is automatically canceled and a little yellow window tells me that window security will not allow me to open the file. How do I turn off window security completely? I do not need the nanny service. I initially tried correcting things based on information in this site. The internet zone in explorer is set to medium. Considering that I do not use explorer, I certainly do not appreciate having it monitor a downloads directory it should not be concerned with. My work around for this problem has been to have my colleague e-mail me files I need to download. That is a major time waster but it has been a decent bandage for the problem. System restore does not complete successfully anymore so it's not I can just hit rewind. How To Change Protection to the Program Files folder in Win 10. There is a C:\Program Files\ folder and I am using Win 10. I created a Sub folder called SS (i.e. C:\Program Files\SS\ ) and I want users to add data and make changes to data in that folder. I am unable to makes changes to the security like those on the C: drive. Currently I am using the C:\SS\ folder and I have not issues in users making any changes. Once I put SS into the Program Files folder, when I make changes to a file, it wants me to save it else where and then move it back into the folder. That works, but it would make user very unhappy doing that. Can I change the security of the SS folder within the Program Files. I want it to work like the SS folder was under the C:\ drive. FilesProtect file protection. Lock your files and folders by setting up passwords in order to block access to sensitive content and protect them from accidental deletions or changes. FilesProtect file protection is a small Windows application whose purpose is to help you lock files and folders in order to prevent accidental deletions or changes using a set of straightforward actions. It can be installed on all Windows versions out there. Clean and simple layout. The program reveals an intuitive design that leaves room for no ambiguities. Files and folders can be imported in the working environment using the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented). A help manual is not embedded in the package.

  • IIS Security and Programming Countermeasures
    IIS Security and Programming Countermeasures By Jason Coombs ([email protected]) Introduction This is a book about how to secure Microsoft Internet Information Services for administrators and programmers whose work includes a requirement for information security, a computer industry specialty field commonly referred to as infosec. In this book the terms information security and infosec are used interchangeably with the more friendly term data security. This is not a book about hacking, cracking, and the tools and techniques of the bad guys, the so-called black hat hackers. This book teaches computer professionals and infosec specialists how to build secure solutions using IIS. It is your duty to secure and defend networked information systems for the benefit of the good guys who are your end users, clients, or less technical coworkers. There is nothing you can do that will transform a programmable computer running Microsoft Windows from its vulnerable condition to an invulnerable one. Every general purpose programmable computer is inherently vulnerable because it is controlled by software and is designed to allow new software to be installed or executed arbitrarily. Network computing based on programmable general purpose computers will never be safe from an information security perspective. Eliminating the feature of general purpose programmability from a networked computer and replacing its software with firmware reduces but does not eliminate vulnerabilities. These are immutable realities of present day computing and, as always, reality represents your biggest challenge. Microsoft is in business to get as much of your money as possible using whatever means will work at a given moment and in this respect they know virtually no equal in the software business.

  • Windows XP Guide.Indd
    An end-users guide to basic security practices for creating a new Windows XP desktop. Introduction: This guide is mostly focused on creating a decently secure installation of Windows XP Professional for an end- user. While the vast majority can be applied to Windows XP Home, and OEM Restore Disk Sets, there are a few instances where these two media will need to be setup in a different manner. Getting the necessary resources for our secure installation: The majority of computers that are purchased come with Windows XP pre-installed. We can use this to our advantage in gathering everything we need for our secure installation; that way we donʼt have to connect our computer to the internet while it is vulnerable in order to update it. In this section Iʼll go over how to customize your base installation of Windows in a secure fashion. Iʼve split this section into two parts, the first uses nLite on a Windows XP CD Source; while the second part uses XPLite on an OEM Restore Disk Set. The reason for using two different tools depending on if you have a bundled restore disk vs. a pure windows installation disk has to do with compatibility. Using nLite gives a much cleaner solution in that we can modify our windows installation in the pre-installation phase and then create a bootable ISO for future use. However in the case of OEM restore disks Iʼve found a few sets where some of the value-added software bundled doesnʼt work prop- erly if windows has be edited with nLite.
