What are we being protected from?
Virus :A computer virus is a type of computer program that, when executed, replicates itself by modifying other computer programs and inserting its own code. When this replication succeeds, the affected areas are then said to be "infected" with a computer virus.
Ransomware :Ransomware is computer malware that restricts access—or even stops you from using your PC—or encrypts your files. It then tries to force you into paying money (a ransom) to regain access to them. Some of the ways you can get infected by ransomware include: Visiting unsafe, suspicious, or fake websites.
Malware :Malware is any software intentionally designed to cause damage to a computer, server, client, or computer network.
A wide variety of types of malware exist, including computer viruses, worms, Trojan horses, ransomware, spyware, adware, and scareware.
Now we know why we use software to protect us from the outside world, and wish we hadn’t asked.
Windows 10 makes it easy to keep your PC up to date by
automatically checking for the latest updates.
You’ll get new features and the latest security
enhancements to help ensure you’re always protected.
Best of all, this comes with fewer restarts when you’re using
your PC the most;
Simply set your active hours.

What is a Firewall ?
Firewall and
Network Protection
In computing, a firewall
is a network security
system that monitors
and controls incoming
and outgoing network
traffic based on
predetermined security
rules.
A firewall typically
establishes a barrier
between a trusted
internal network and
untrusted external
network, such as the
Internet.
