Microsoft Defender for Individuals
Microsoft Defender for Individuals is an app for individuals and families that helps protect identity, data and devices across Windows, macOS, iOS and Android. A Microsoft 365 Personal, Family or Premium subscription is required, and each plan covers up to five devices per person. Defender provides antivirus and anti-phishing features on supported platforms, with protections differing by operating system, including ransomware protection. Its dashboard shows device security status, alerts, recommendations and up to 30 days of device activity history. Identity features include dark-web scanning and monitoring of more than 60 types of personal information, as well as 24/7 identity theft support and stated insurance coverage for restoration-related fees and lost-funds recovery. Identity and credit monitoring are limited to the United States and US territories; credit monitoring uses single-bureau Experian data. The app has no free plan, though a free trial is listed. Minimum requirements are Windows 10 version 19041 or later, macOS 11 or later, iOS 14 or later and Android 8.0 or later.
