Windows 10 Security





"Addressing today’s threats requires a new approach. Windows 10 offers architectural changes that protect from the inside out and go well beyond perimeter defense and building bigger walls".


Microsoft has fortified the latest version of Windows to make it more secure than previous editions, but the strongest protections will be available only to those willing to pay a steep price for them.

Countering unidentified vulnerabilities also known as "zero day" vulnerabilities is particularly important because they are a powerful tool used to penetrate systems and steal data by attackers, especially those working for nation-states.

 Microsoft took important steps to help keep their customers more secure, but the reality is that in some cases they were only able to make it more difficult for the attackers. To truly address the security challenges that you're facing, Windows would need to take advantage of new hardware technologies that have just recently started to ship in modern devices. With these technologies now becoming pervasive, they have taken the opportunity in Windows 10 to make significant architectural changes to the platform.

Microsoft have made significant architectural changes to the platform, many of which address tactics used in the attacks that you have been reading about or have personally experienced. These changes are not just defensive measures that present steeper walls for attackers to climb; they are improvements that take critical tactics off the table, in some cases entirely. To achieve this goal, Windows 10 takes full advantage of state-of-the-art hardware technologies to help protect user identities, information, and devices against hacking and malware threats.

This hole platform provides security capabilities to protect workstations, smartphones and tablets. Security and risk management leaders of endpoint protection should investigate malware detection effectiveness, performance impact on the host machines and administrative overhead.
