Using Windows Security Center

Windows Security Center provides a central location for you to manage the computer’s security settings and learn more about improving security. If a problem is detected (such as an out-of-date antivirus application), the Security Center sends you an alert and provides recommendations for how to remedy the situation.

Windows Security Center manages the following:

Windows Firewall. Protects the computer against viruses and other security threats, such as intruders who might try access over the Internet or a network.

Automatic Updates. Keeps the computer up to date by notifying you of important Windows updates. You can configure Automatic Updates to download and install updates automatically.

Internet Options. Protects you from Web sites that could damage the computer, blocks pop-ups, and protects your privacy. Internet Options allow you to change the settings of Internet Explorer, but it cannot be used to change the settings of other Web browsers.

To learn more about Windows Security Center, open Motion Dashboard to the Security panel, then tap Windows Security Center.
