Check the Action Center for Security Problems

In Windows 8, the Action Center displays messages about the current state of your tablet. In particular, the Action Center warns you if your tablet has any current security problems.

For example, the Action Center tells you if your tablet does not have virus protection installed or if the Windows Defender spyware database is out of date. The Action Center will also warn you if your tablet is not set up to download updates automatically and if important security features such as User Account Control are turned off.
