Antivirus software is an important part of protecting personal computer systems. It is recommended to do research on your best options. Native antivirus software such as Windows Defender is already included with new operating systems. The antivirus software should be configured for regular updates and automatic scans to remain effective. In addition, you can reduce your risk of compromise by following these practices:
- Keep all software up to date.
- Backup your data.
- Download files and applications from trusted sources only.
- Be wary of hyperlinks in emails and only click on links you expected to receive.
You can learn more about information security by visiting the Information Security website.
