Question about Windows 10 Pro for WorkStations

When installing Windows 10 Pro for WorkStations, what kind of security software should I use?

1 Answer

Security software like an anti-virus type program?

I'm a fan of ESET Internet Security, but everyone will have their own opinion on the pro/cons, and features in all of the different solutions available.

Your first choice is deciding to pay for the program, or use something which is free.
After that decision it comes down to other options:

- Impact on system performance
- Ease of use
- Individual install, or network protection
- Individual access, or Administrator only

Some people have claimed the Windows 10 Defender is sufficient. My biggest complaint with the built in system is the firewall which allows all outgoing traffic. That was an issue in Windows 7. I'm not sure if it was changed for Windows 10.
