On Windows 10, Microsoft has made its operating system a more secure platform with the assistance of a new feature in the settings named Tamper Protection. This is a feature for both corporate and customer versions of Windows 10. When this feature is enabled, it blocks any changes to your Windows Security setting by any other programs, so the only was to makes changes to those setting is only through the Windows interface using an administrator account. Before Tamper Protection, it was actually possible for other third-party programs to access and disable virus, threat, real-time, and cloud-delivered protection, as well as turn off behavior monitoring, and remove security intelligence updates. Tamper Protection is being rolled out in stages, so there is a chance you already have it available, but not enabled. To check, click on the Start button, then start typing “Windows Security” and click the link that appears. Then click Virus & threat protection and under the Virus & threat protection settings there’s a link to Manage settings. Clicking that will reveal if Tamper Protection is available as an option yet on your system and whether it is enabled. #Windows10 #WindowsDefender #Microsoft #TamperProtection#advancedthreatprotection #mhumphries#PCNews#windowssecurityfeature #antivirus #administrator #securitysoftware#virusandthreatprotection#onsitesupport #offsitesupportaz #cloudservices #ITConsulting#networksupport #scottsdalehostedsolutions#protectedservers#ITBusinessSupport #ITSupportPhoenix #securenetworkaz#phoenixITsolutions#ITproactive #managedsolutions#PhoenixITconsultants #staffaugmentation#phoenixmanagedservices#backupmanagement
