By Administrator
The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

Windows Defender achieved the best test results

By Administrator
Windows Defender achieved the best test results

Whenever we talk about anti-virus Windows Defender we never even take it into consideration. He always had the worst protection and that is why the internet is full of jokes about him.

An independent computer and phone software testing company, AV-TEST GmbH has released results for June, with Windows Defender (now Windows Security) at the top.

Their results are divided into three categories: protection, performance, and ease of use. Grades are awarded for each category individually, ranging from 1 to 6 in increments of 0.5.

If you look at their table, with results for June, you can see that only 4 anti-viruses have a maximum score of 6/6/6: Windows Defender, F-SECURE Safe 17, Norton Security 22.17, and Kaspersky Internet Security 19.0

Their tests are very serious and rigorous, mostly "worst-case" tests. That is, the tests simulate the worst-case scenario that could befall the average computer user.

Microsoft has improved its security tool and managed to bring it to the very top where Kaspersky, Norton, and F-Secure are. All three anti-viruses pay a lot, while Windows Defender comes with Windows for free.

However, indeed, Windows Defender has not always been so good, as you can see in the history of tests. Microsoft has significantly improved it lately, and perhaps the biggest innovation is the introduction of artificial intelligence.

And now someone would ask the question "Is Windows Defender enough for us?" In short - probably not.

In addition to standard protection, third-party anti-viruses offer additional options, some of which are free and some not, such as file destruction, WiFi protection, scanning emails and links, VPN… Windows Defender does not have these additional options that mean a lot to users. If you don't need these additional options - then whatnot, Defender will be enough for you.

Mobile Browsers

By Administrator
The Internet on mobile devices is becoming more popular and has more and more users. As mobile internet expands, so do mobile browsers. Although the devices themselves already have built-in basic internet browsers, new browsers are constantly appearing. The reason is that each of the programs brings something new and useful. For example, Opera Mini is most popular on older phone models that use Java applications, while on Android platforms Chrome , Firefox ,  Dolphin , and xScope are more represented.
