5. Enterprise-grade secure
and fast
The best Windows ever is also the most secure Windows ever. Windows 10 Pro has more built-in
security protections to help keep your system safe. Windows 10 Pro pairs security features with speed,
delivering fast start-ups and quick resume, giving you a great experience that you can trust to work the
way it should.
Windows Defender
Windows Defender is included as part of Windows 10 Pro, working right out-of-the box so that you are
always protected. Windows Defender provides the defense you need; it is constantly updated to meet
evolving threats as they are identified and is faster at detecting and protecting you against emerging
malware, seen in the first critical hours. Windows Defender uses a highly scalable and geo-distributed
backend service that leverages data from about one billion devices to draw fast insights and respond in
hundreds of milliseconds.
Smart Screen
Microsoft SmartScreen defends against phishing sites by performing a reputation check, and will block
sites that are thought to be phishing sites. It will also defend against socially-engineered downloads of
malicious software. By supporting web standards like HTTP Strict Transport Security, we are making it
easier for the web developer community to build first class websites that are reliable and secured.
InstantGo
InstantGo maintains network connectivity when your screen is off in standby mode, allowing the system
to update things in the background, and keeping it ready to instantly resume so that you don’t miss
anything.
