Is Windows Defender capable of providing adequate protection against ransomware, or should additional tools be used?
Windows Defender can provide decent protection against ransomware and other types of malware. It includes ransomware protection features such as Controlled Folder Access and real-time protection. However, to enhance security against ransomware and other advanced threats, some users may opt to use additional tools or dedicated anti-ransomware software for extra layers of protection. It’s always good practice to combine Windows Defender with safe browsing habits, regular software updates, and system backups to bolster overall security.
