Hi friends!!!

We all heard a word called ‘Anti-virus’. And it always pretty much sounds like we are having a war and we need to kill all the viruses and we need to get a powerfull antivirus for our pc/mobile. In today’s post we are talking about antiviruses that , ‘Should we really need it in this modern life or not’!!

Friends if we talk about past then we can saw that there was a trend made that time , "if you buy a new computer or assemble a pc then your first and most important work will be install an antivirus." It is like by default we all know that if we made a house then we must made a door, like that if we assemble a computer we must be install an antivirus. It’s all because we all need protection and we think that everywhere is fill around by virus and these antivirus will kept us protect.

Now if we talk about past then that time we all had flopped disks. And by this disks many viruses and malware easily spread that time. That’s why we really needed antiviruses that time. If we talk about antivirus companies, they are working like , “Not killing viruses or not solving the problem from root , we can say it as tom & jerry race. It works like if a new virus entify then antivirus companies create a protection system. If another new virus came they will create a another protection system. This not like that your house is protected by all side. It is like if a virus trying to enter your home from front side then a wall was created in front of the house. If a virus entered in your house then you will know and you can push the virus outside from your house by antivirus. And that’s how it works. People getting relaxed; antiviruses became hypes and popular that time. And many many antiviruses was sold. People thought that there should be antivirus on every devices. And the most interesting part is when you tap on this antivirus then it does something like scan and after some processing it shows that it has found viruses or some threats, many action has taken blah blah…..

Friends in today's date our most of the operating systems are as much as updated in them and most of these operating system users are involved that these antiviruses requirements are almost like ‘NO’; if the users use these operating system with full awareness. As we all know that windows came with their windows defender and all the functionality are baked in OS directly. And if we talk about browsers we got : chorme, mozila or even ms edge etc. have these type of protection inbuild. It works like if you enter a unsecure site then it shows that this site is not secure. And if you want to download something wrong then a pop up message will show like ‘This program can harm your device’ and you can cancel it there. The OS level has become smarter with time directly. And in past when you attach or run an antivirus on your computer then after booting your computer it takes many resources for its work, take a place in your ram permanently. For this, you feel slow and lack in your pc all the time. Sometime people think that , ‘Is truly these antivirus catch viruses or it just waste our time . Cause everytime it shows threats, scans etc.

And this types of things are not happen on OS, cz these things are inbuild as a part of them. Same for mac OS also. For this I don’t think that antiviruses are not as much as important to me. But there is one thing i tell you that if you use someone else’s pendrive or getting some file ; this way a virus can easily enter enter your device. Otherwise if you use your pc with full awareness i don’t think there will you need an antivirus. Because our operating systems are more secure in today's date. And guys forget about using antivirus on your mobile, cz no need to. There is no chance for enter a virus in your android system.

So guys, now tell me that , “Have you ever used an antivirus on your device or just using it without no antivirus like me ?”
