How can I help protect my Surface from viruses?
Windows RT includes up-to-date virus and malware protection called Windows Defender. This software helps
identify and remove viruses, spyware, and other malicious software. Windows Defender is always on and can't be
turned off.
To manually scan Surface by using Windows Defender, see How do I find and remove a virus? on Windows.com.
