Many of you must be thinking that what is Windows Defender & Firewall and how it is better than any Anti-virus. Let us see what is Windows defender & Firewall. First we will talk about Windows Defender & then Firewall. Windows Defender was released with Windows Vista and Windows 7, serving as their built-in anti-spyware component. Windows Defender was initially superseded by Microsoft Security Essentials, an anti-malware product from Microsoft which provided protection against a wider range of malware. Upon installation, Microsoft Security Essentials disabled and replaced Windows Defender. In Windows 8, Microsoft upgraded Windows Defender into an antivirus program very similar to Microsoft Security Essentials for Windows 7 and using the same virus definition updates. Basically Windows Defender is a Anti-virus which protect your PC without any Anti-virus or any money from user. Basically we know that what an Anti-virus do in our PC. The same work is done by our Windows Defender. Their are two advanced ways to protect your PC using Windows Defender is Real-time protection & Browser integration. Let us understand what is Real-time protection & Browser integration. Real-time protection, on-access scanning, background guard, resident shield, auto protect, and other synonyms refer to the automatic protection provided by most antivirus, anti-spyware, and other anti-malware programs. This monitors computer systems for suspicious activity such as computer viruses, spyware, adware, and other malicious objects in 'real-time', in other words while data loaded into the computer's active memory: when inserting a CD, opening an email, or browsing the web, or when a file already on the computer is opened or executed. Browser integration is integration with Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge enables files to be scanned as they are downloaded to detect malicious software inadvertently downloaded. Although it does not integrate with non-Microsoft web browsers, Windows Defender scans for malicious downloaded files as part of its real-time protection.

Basically what all the Anti-virus do to protect your PC from Internet is that they just simply turn on Firewall of there Anti-virus and just say that there Anti-virus is protecting your PC from Internet virus. So let me tel you is that they do not do anything different from what your Windows Firewall was doing before installing your Anti-virus on your PC. Firewall is a network security system that monitors and controls the incoming and outgoing network traffic based on predetermined security rules.A firewall typically establishes a barrier between a trusted, secure internal network and another outside network, such as the Internet, that is assumed not to be secure or trusted. This kind of work your Anti-virus also do. Now you must be getting how your Windows Firewall is much better than any Anti-virus.
