Use software security solutions

This section provides software solutions to secure your computer and information.

Use firewalls

A firewall can be hardware, software, or a combination of both depending on the level of security required.
Firewalls work on a set of rules to determine which inbound and outbound connections are authorized. If the
computer is preinstalled with a firewall program, it helps protect against computer Internet security threats,
unauthorized access, intrusions, and Internet attacks. It also protects your privacy. For more information
about how to use the firewall program, refer to the help system of your firewall program.
To use firewalls:
1. Go to Control Panel and view by large icons or small icons.
2. Click Windows Defender Firewall, and then follow the on-screen instructions.

Use antivirus programs

The computer is preinstalled with an antivirus program to help you guard against, detect, and eliminate
viruses.
Lenovo provides a full version of antivirus software on the computer with a free 30-day subscription. After 30
days, you must renew the license to continue receiving the antivirus software updates.
Note: Virus definition files must be kept up-to-date to guard against new viruses.
For more information about how to use your antivirus software, refer to the help system of your antivirus
software.
