Windows Defender stopped a large-scale malware operation this week, according to Microsoft.
I've noticed Windows Defender effectively stopping what seemed like a huge malware campaign. I used to think it operated quietly without much impact, but recent reports suggest its data collection methods have actually helped users. This aligns with Microsoft's claims about using machine learning to block advanced threats like coin miners. While I'm still unsure about the full scope of the attack it prevented, it definitely shows progress in their security efforts.
