Having a secure computer environment does not have to be an expensive and complicated task. Securing computers can be accomplished without buying Internet Security Software by applying basic rules with the tools provided by your hardware and software vendors. As the builder of Windows, Microsoft has a vested interest in ensuring that all Windows computers are protected from viruses and malware to provide users with a safe, enjoyable, and productive computing experience. The same goes for router manufacturers like Cisco, Juniper, D-Link, and devices distributed by Internet Service Providers (ISP) like AT&T, Verizon, and Comcast.
All these vendors include software tools to operate their products at an appropriate level of security, if you follow the recommended settings. Network routers are designed to run out of the box instantly. It's called plug and play! After answering a few easy questions in the Setup program, the average user manages to have a working wireless computer network. Satisfied with such an accomplishment, most people do not bother to follow up with the more detailed security settings recommended in the user's manual, leaving the network vulnerable to ill-intended intruders.

Microsoft's Windows 10 comes with adequate, built-in Firewall, Windows Defender, and Malicious Software Removal Tool to guard against viruses, spyware, and other malware.
