Free Security Software for Your Personal Computer

myIT recommends that all students install security software on their computer.

AntiVirus*

myIT recommends Microsoft Defender, a free antivirus product from Microsoft.

Please note that any antivirus product you may currently have will need to be uninstalled before installing Microsoft Defender. To remove old antivirus software, head to the Control Panel and the Programs section to remove it from your computer. 

Anti-Malware*

myIT recommends Malwarebytes, a free malware removal tool that is very powerful and removes most infections. It can be found at malwarebytes.com.

Both of these products are free and are compatible with Windows Vista/7/8.
