What is Microsoft Security Essentials?
There are a host of nasty intruders on the Internet including viruses, trojans, worms and spyware. Microsoft Security Essentials offers award-winning protection against these intruders without getting in your way.
The best brains and brawn in the background
Microsoft Security Essentials is built for individuals and small businesses, but it’s based on the same technology that Microsoft uses to protect giant businesses (security products like Microsoft Forefront, the Malicious Software Removal Tool, and Windows Defender). We have a
whole team watching for new threats and coming up with ways to squash them.
We’re proud to have received great recognition for
the protection we offer: the VB100 award from Virus Bulletin Ltd.,
Checkmark Certification from West Coast Labs, and certification from the
ICSA Labs.
Easy to get, easy to use
Downloading and installing Microsoft Security Essentials
is free* and easy. Once you have installed it, the software updates
automatically once a day. We’re constantly tracking new threats and we
keep your PC updated to help protect you. You don’t have to do anything.
Microsoft Security Essentials
uses green, yellow and red color codes to designate the security status
of your PC and a color-coded icon in the taskbar tells you at a glance
if your attention is needed. It’s simple—when you’re green, you’re good.
However, if there’s a red or yellow threat, Microsoft Security Essentials
will alert you and recommend what to do (you can act directly from the
notification area without having to enter the application).
Runs quietly without hurting PC performance
Microsoft Security Essentials runs quietly in the background. You’ll only be alerted when there are specific actions to take. When you’re away or busy, Microsoft Security Essentials can take the default action on your behalf and you can open the program later to review and undo those actions if you wish.
Microsoft Security Essentials
is efficient and compact. Scans and updates are scheduled to run when
the PC is idle and the software works in a way that your PC is still
snappy when you’re using it. All this makes Microsoft Security Essentials friendly for all sorts of computers—your old PC, your new PC, your laptop, as well as your little netbook.
