proactive protection

Microsoft's Smart App Control is a new feature designed to enhance malware prevention for Windows users by proactively blocking suspicious applications before they can cause harm. It utilizes advanced machine learning and cloud data to identify and neutralize potential threats based on patterns and behaviors. While Smart App Control provides a proactive layer of protection, Microsoft recommends that users continue to use traditional antivirus software to complement its capabilities, as traditional programs are effective at identifying and removing known threats.
