Microsoft is giving away a fantastic ebook on Windows 11 security
Microsoft has released a comprehensive ebook explaining in detail how virtually every facet of Windows 11 security works.
I won’t waste space here telling you what’s in it because it’s free and you can check it out for yourself.
You have three option for reading this ebook:
1 – You can read it directly on the Microsoft website right here…
2 – You can print out a hard copy, or…
3 – You can download a PDF copy to your computer or mobile device.
Note: You’ll find icons for printing and/or downloading the ebook in the top-right corner of the browser window.
In my humble opinion, this is a fantastic ebook that’s well worth the read if you’re interested in getting a broad overview of Windows 11 security.
