Worse still, the detractors said, every time Microsoft produced a newer, shinier, more secure version to make our world a safer place… (Whether you like to hear it or not, Windows was never significantly less secure than most other desktop operating systems, but it was very, very much more widespread, so it attracted the lion’s share of attention from hackers and cybercriminals.)
Windows 10 is more secure than all previous versions of Windows – it is, it really is! – and it gets security updates more frequently, and with shorter delays, too.įor years, Microsoft was as good as blamed for the problem of malware, thanks to the ease with which malware could be written and distributed for Windows. That’s curious, because you might think it would be their Golden Era at the moment.Īfter all, what’s not to like about Windows 10? You wouldn’t want to work in the PR part of Microsoft’s Windows 10 team right now.
