Just like on your smartphone, one of the easiest ways for your PC to end up with a nasty malware infection is by installing new apps but Microsoft is working on a new solution to shore up one of the main ways malicious software can take over your PC.
Hackers often make their malicious apps stronger by requesting access to unnecessary permissions that give them greater control over your devices. On Android, this is done by abusing the operating system’s accessibility services while in Windows 11, the same thing can be achieved by tricking unsuspecting users into granting administrator privileges for a particular app or a program.
