The sophisticated cyber threats of today necessitate a modern approach to security. And this isn’t limited to businesses or governments; in recent years, we’ve witnessed an upsurge in attacks on individuals. There are 921 password attacks every second. We’ve seen ransomware threats target small businesses and families in addition to their regular targets. And we know that as bad actors get more sophisticated, we must strengthen our defenses as well.

That is why they must secure your entire digital life, whether at home or work—threats do not end when you leave the office or close your work laptop for the day. We need solutions that will assist you and your family feel safe while working, playing, and living.

That’s why we’re thrilled to announce the release of Microsoft Defender for people, a new online security app for Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscribers. We think that every individual and family should feel safe online. This is an important step forward in our effort to offer security to all, and I’m excited to tell you more about this new app, which is now accessible with features for you to try.

Introducing Microsoft Defender

Protecting your data and gadgets is more vital than ever as our digital footprints develop and more devices and family members go online. However, your and your family’s device preferences may result in Windows, iOS, Android, and macOS devices all being represented in a single household. We are more vulnerable than ever as threats get more sophisticated and time spent online has increased during the pandemic.

People usually use many security tools, with distributed security monitoring and device management, to help keep their data private and devices secure. This fragmentation makes keeping up with rising cyber threats much more difficult.

We must improve our security solutions to match the individual demands of our customers at home and work by combining existing technology in novel ways. That is why we have created Microsoft Defender for individuals. It is based on our Microsoft Defender for Endpoint technology, which provides the same trusted security that businesses rely on. It is the newest addition to our family of Microsoft Defender solutions, joining our complete collection of security products and services and extending the protection already incorporated into Windows Security.

What is the role of Microsoft Defender?

Microsoft Defender is an online security solution that meets you and your family where you are by combining different defenses into a single dashboard. It offers online security across all devices used by you and your family. It provides suggestions and techniques for improving your security. And, when you expand your digital footprint by adding family members and devices, Defender grows with you and uses proven technologies to keep your defenses up to date.

This integrated solution, which includes ongoing antivirus and anti-phishing security for your data and devices, will allow you to:

  • Manage your security procedures and observe security procedures for everyone in your family from a single, simple-to-use dashboard.
  • Examine your current antivirus protection (such as Norton or McAfee). The defender recognizes these protections in the dashboard.
  • Extend Windows device security to iOS, Android, and macOS devices for cross-platform malware protection on the devices your family and you use the most.
  • Receive real-time security warnings, resolution techniques, and expert advice to keep your data and devices safe.

This is only the beginning. In the future, we will continue to combine more precautions under a single dashboard, including features such as identity theft prevention and a secure online connection. Microsoft Defender is an online security solution that develops with you and your family to keep you secure.
