タイトル:“Why Ransomware Is The Most Popular Tool For Cyberattacks”

内容に入る前の質疑

Question: How safe do you think your computer is against program malwares?

My Answer: It is difficult to say the exact number. But if you use Windows and turns on Windows Defender, and you don’t connect an unknown network, it would be very safe.

Question: What are the antiviruses you have and how sure are you that they are effective?

My Answer: I use just Windows Defender. I read an article about the antiviruses. It says that if you use Windows, to use Windows Defender is the most safe way other than to use software not for free, for example, McAfee or something like that.
