Windows Security Certification Training with Koenig Solutions

Course Overview

What is Windows Security?

Windows Security by Microsoft is an integrated platform protecting devices from malware and unauthorized access. As a foundational element of the zero-trust model, it secures hardware, operating systems, and identities. Microsoft Defender leverages massive threat intelligence, blocking over 9.7 billion malware threats annually. Key features include Microsoft Defender Antivirus for real-time remediation, Windows Firewall for traffic control, and Device Security for hardware-based protections like TPM. Account Protection supports passwordless authentication, while App and browser control filters phishing attempts. This course is essential for IT administrators and security analysts tasked with centralized threat monitoring and policy enforcement. By mastering these tools, professionals ensure robust compliance and device integrity across complex hybrid environments, making Windows Security the primary defense for modern organizational infrastructure.
