Microsoft Defender Windows Defender before Kaspersky's complaint
Recently, Microsoft has spoken out to defend the measures Windows Defender has taken, that they only do so to protect customers.
In a blog post, even without mentioning Russian cyber security company Kaspersky, Microsoft has defended Windows Defender, the object recently complained of by Kaspersky as unreliable.
Eugene Kaspersky, with his name set to the company name, complained that Microsoft automatically turned on Windows Defender when a third-party antivirus software expired. He also said that Windows 10 Updates sometimes makes Kaspersky disappear from a user's computer. After that, Windows 10 will automatically turn on Windows Defender and report that Kaspersky software 'doesn't work on this Windows version'. Kaspersky complains that independent software developers only have 7 days to make their software compatible with the new OS before Windows 10 is released, so too little time.
On the article written by Rob Lefferts (Partner Director, Security & Enterprise, Windows & Devices Group), Microsoft does not deny these actions, but denies that they have bad intentions. Microsoft said that it just wanted Windows 10 to be the safest OS in Windows versions ever.
Microsoft says that they believe in 'always on' protection and emphasizing rawngfh allows antivirus software to notify users many times when it is about to expire. But when users ignore it, their priority is to ensure the safety of users and their computers, which means that Windows Defender will automatically turn on.
Notice before expiry of antivirus software
Microsoft also acknowledges that sometimes they uninstall third-party antivirus software, but only if the software is not compatible. They also emphasized that through the Insider program, they gave developers many opportunities to check if their software is compatible.
More specifically, through the Microsoft Wallet Initiative (MVI) program, Microsoft has shared detailed technical information about Microsoft technology with its AV partners to collaborate in the future, creating a birth system. Thai together grow.
Microsoft concludes by saying they have been with the antivirus partners for more than 20 years to protect Windows users from online threats and look forward to continuing to work with these partners for the sake of customer protection.
