Instead, the Microsoft Defender app provides a unified dashboard to manage your online security for a family of devices connected with the Microsoft account.<\/p>\n<p>The app offers real-time protection, notifications, security tips, and recommended steps to protect your devices from hackers and malicious code. However, the set of features will vary per supported platform. For example, this solution won&#8217;t offer additional protection if the device (iOS and Windows) already has malware protection.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_139849\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-139849\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-defender-dashboard-windows-11.webp?resize=827%2C513&#038;quality=78&#038;strip=all&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Microsoft Defender dashboard\" width=\"827\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-defender-dashboard-windows-11.webp?w=1024&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-defender-dashboard-windows-11.webp?resize=300%2C186&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-defender-dashboard-windows-11.webp?resize=926%2C574&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 926w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-defender-dashboard-windows-11.webp?resize=150%2C93&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Microsoft Defender dashboard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In the case that the app can&#8217;t provide malware protection, you will still get web phishing alongside the features available through the dashboard.<\/p>\n<p>The Microsoft Defender app has antivirus protection for Android devices, and the solution will offer web phishing protection.<\/p>\n<p>On Windows, if you have another antivirus (such as Norton, Bitdefender, McAfee, etc.), you can view their protection on the new Defender dashboard across devices.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_139850\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-139850\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-dender-scan-history.webp?resize=827%2C513&#038;quality=78&#038;strip=all&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Microsoft Defender scan history\" width=\"827\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-dender-scan-history.webp?w=1024&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-dender-scan-history.webp?resize=300%2C186&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-dender-scan-history.webp?resize=926%2C574&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 926w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/pureinfotech.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/microsoft-dender-scan-history.webp?resize=150%2C93&amp;quality=78&amp;strip=all&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Microsoft Defender scan history<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The app isn&#8217;t something everyone needs since it doesn&#8217;t add significant value other than having a unified dashboard to stay aware of the protection of all your devices.
