Windows 10 for Enterprise Administrators

General malware

Malware is a malicious program that performs unwanted actions, including actions that can disrupt, cause direct damage, and facilitate intrusion and data theft. Some malware can replicate and spread from one machine to another. Others are able to receive commands from remote attackers and perform activities associated with cyber attacks. Antivirus software can detect known malware signatures, but they can change frequently (hundreds to thousands of new variants every day). Preventing local administrative rights to all users is the best way to prevent this type of attack. You can also deploy technologies such as AppLocker to prevent unauthorized processes from running.
