Is Windows Defender Good Enough?

In my opinion knowledge is the best defense. There is such a misunderstand when it comes to security on computers. Many of the answers you will find available will suggest that Windows Defender is poor while others will say that it is very good.

Is Windows Defender Good Enough to Protect Your PC by Itself??

windows defender

In my opinion knowledge is the best defense. There is such a misunderstand when it comes to security on computers. Many of the answers you will find available will suggest that Windows Defender is poor while others will say that it is very good.

Microsoft Windows Defender has really upped its game over the past few years and originally it did not get off to the best of starts. But in the past year it really has become a challenge to malware developers. There are various types of protection available which many people wrongly class as the same and label it under antivirus. Firstly within antivirus there a multiple parts such as “Scantime Detection” and “Runtime Detection”. Scantime detection, detects malware based on analysing the code, the application itself and is only as good as its latest updates.

It recognises known malware signatures and types and uses that information to determine its geniousity. Runtime detection, detects malware on the way it runs, functions and system calls and analyses this information to determine whether the application is malicious or has malicious software similarities. Recently over the past year this is one area Windows defender has accelerated in. That being said, these days the firewall is a major part of the security system. Preventing unauthorised connections by malicious software such as trojans. Windows built in firewall is useless in this area.

Hackers can develop a quick shell script that adds rules into the firewall almost instantly and without failure. Another major security risk is web browsers. Most web browsers do not disable unauthorised scripts running on websites which in today's world is the main source of malicious exploits hidden within web applications which includes HTA exploits (html application) and malicious JavaScript and much more. This ties in nicely to another major issue with security which is data privacy and tracking. Generally speaking most people are still using unencrypted connections, open hotpots and allowing websites and search engines to track them. With all of this information it puts the end user at great risk. My suggestion is this.. Use a high quality antivirus solution with a professional grade firewall. There are loads of great providers but personally I still prefer Kaspersky as my own choice. Control your browser and websites that are running malicious scripts. Either by using extentions in your preexisting browser or by using the chrome browser. Kaspersky also has a good and trusted VPN that do not keep logs on your usage. This will allow you to connect to hotpots with less risk (there are always ways) of capturing your data.

GitHub Copilot for VS Code

A new "AI pair programmer" represents a breakthrough in the third revolution of software development: the use of AI in coding.

GitHub-Copilot

A new "AI pair programmer" represents a breakthrough in the third revolution of software development: the use of AI in coding.

Microsoft and OpenAI have collaborated to build an AI pair-programming system called GitHub Copilot. Copilot, now available in preview as a Visual Studio Code extension, is meant to help programmers write code faster and with less work, Microsoft officials said on June 29.

Copilot is powered by OpenAI Codex, a new AI system. Microsoft and OpenAI have been working together for the past few years on various projects; Copilot is their latest collaboration.

"If the technical preview is successful, our plan is to build a commercial version of GitHub Copilot in the future. We want to use the preview to learn how people use GitHub Copilot and what it takes to operate it at scale," GitHub officials said in a frequently asked questions (FAQ) document published today.

Since GitHub Copilot is available as a Visual Studio Code extension, working wherever Visual Studio Code works, on the developer’s machine or in the cloud on GitHub Codespaces. With access currently limited to a small group of testers, persons interested in trying Copilot can sign up for the Copilot waiting list.

Since GitHub Copilot is available as a Visual Studio Code extension, working wherever Visual Studio Code works, on the developer’s machine or in the cloud on GitHub Codespaces. With access currently limited to a small group of testers, persons interested in trying Copilot can sign up for the Copilot waiting list.

Codex was trained on billions of publicly available source code lines -- including code in public repositories on GitHub -- and on natural language, which means it can understand both programming and human languages. The Copilot editor extension sends comments and code to the Copilot service. The service uses OpenAI Codex to synthesize and then suggest both individual lines of code and whole functions, Microsoft officials explained in the FAQ.

Copilot is meant to try to discern intent and generate the best code it can. However, it doesn't test the code it suggests, and Microsoft cautions that it may suggest old or deprecated uses of libraries and languages.

Copilot is meant to improve with time and use. Microsoft advises developers to divide their code into small functions, use meaningful names for functions parameters and write good docstrings and comments as they go. They also said Copilot "seems to do best when it's helping you navigate unfamiliar libraries or frameworks."

Turn your drawn images into HTML code by Sketch2code. A great tool for front-end developers

Sketch2Code uses AI to convert hand-written drawings to working HTML prototypes. Designers share ideas on a whiteboard, then changes are shown in the browser instantly

Sketch2code

Artificial intelligence; a well-known game changer in the area of technology, has never failed to amaze us through its enormous potential. AI is making computers smarter than ever, and here we will discuss a new tool that is likely going to make web development an enjoyable experience. The Microsoft AI lab has recently rolled out a website “builder”, knows as Microsoft Sketch2Code, a web-based solution that transforms a user interface design from an image into a markup code (HTML format). Let's take a look at what it does:

• Takes input of image through the website.

• A custom vision model scans what type of HTML elements can be fetched from the image.

• A handwritten text recognition service scans the text inside the scanned elements.

• The platform's engine gathers the pieces of information, complies it and provides output.

The web-based app is helpful to have a working experience of simple wireframes, or to build something simple, instantly. We discussed about the functionalities, let's dive deeper into its efficiency and limitations.

• Super easy for front-end web developers to generate a working markup code through uploading sketch/image on the site. It’s innovative, quick, productive and less resource consuming. All you need is a good connection and you’re good to go.

• You can extract the code in HTML but it's independent of HTML; you can extract the code in other formats, such as XAML or universal apps like universal windows platforms. • Huge following over GitHub for help and support. An attractive platform for beginners to learn the basics of web development.

Limitations:

• It's not a replacement to professional web-developing software and tools, lacks features and accessibility provided by modern-day react, angular, and other programs.

• It generates markup code, yet lacks the ability to provide back-end functionality to the code.

It's definitely an impressive feat for Microsoft to build such an AI-based web app. It has its limitations but might get better in the long run.
