Is better Windows defender, Firewall or Antivirus ? Difference between
Hi,
What is the difference between Windows Defender, Firewall and Antivirus ? Which one is better ?
Windows defender is called Microsoft defender in Windows 11. It is an anti malware component of Windows. It has multiple security features that help protect your computer in real-time, like:
Microsoft Defender Antivirus
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen
Microsoft Firewall
Bluetooth protection
Secure Wi-Fi
Microsoft Firewall is the part of Microsoft Defender. Firewall blocks unauthorized network traffic flowing into or out of the local device. You should keep firewall enabled on your computer.
Antivirus is a more complex software used to prevent, detect and eliminate viruses and malware. Some antiviruses may have their own firewall.
For a better protection, it is recommended to use both Firewall and Antivirus.
