Warning from the Windows Security Center
A warning from the Windows Security Center is displayed the first time you switch on your
device. The Security Center checks the status of the device in regard to the three important
security aspects listed below. If a problem is detected (an outdated antivirus program, for
example), the Security Center issues a warning and makes recommendations on how you
can better protect the device.
●
Firewall
: The Windows Firewall adds protection to the device by blocking network or
Internet access to the device by unauthorized users. Windows checks if the device is
protected by a software firewall.
The firewall is enabled by default in the delivery state.
●
Antivirus software
: Antivirus programs add protection to the device by searching for and
eliminating viruses and other security threats. Windows checks if a full-range, up-to-date
antivirus program is running on the device.
No antivirus software is installed in the delivery state.
●
Automatic updates
: Using the Automatic Update feature allows Windows to regularly
search for the latest critical updates for the device and to install them automatically. This
feature is disabled in the delivery state.
●
Real-time protection (Windows 7 only):
Windows Defender displays warnings if spyware
or possibly unwanted software is installed or executed on the computer. You will also
receive a warning if programs attempt to modify important Windows settings.
Configure the Security Center according to your requirements.
