Unlocking the Security Benefits of Windows 11

Windows 10 is on its way out, and that’s more than just a deadline. For IT leaders, it’s an opportunity to rethink how your organisation stays secure, productive, and future-ready.

Enter Windows 11. Packed with built-in protections and productivity tools, it’s not just a prettier interface — it’s a strategic upgrade that helps reduce risk and lighten the IT load.

Let’s break down how Windows 11 enhances security and reduces IT headaches — and how Wanstor helps you make the most of the move.

Stronger Security, Built In

Windows 11 security benefits start at the hardware level and continue throughout the user experience. Every device is expected to meet modern security standards — protecting your organisation from today’s most common attacks.

Here’s how it keeps your business safer:

  • TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot: Protect against firmware attacks and ensure devices are trustworthy from the moment they power on.

  • Virtualisation-Based Security (VBS): Isolates critical parts of the OS to prevent attackers from accessing sensitive data.

  • Smart App Control: Blocks untrusted apps before they can cause harm — using intelligent, real-time protection.

Bottom line: These built-in security layers reduce your attack surface and boost your organisation’s cyber resilience — without needing bolt-on solutions.

Less Stress for IT Teams

Windows 11 isn’t just more secure — it’s designed to reduce complexity for IT managers:

  • Seamless Device Management: Native support for Microsoft Intune makes it easy to configure, monitor, and update devices across your fleet.

  • Lighter, Smarter Updates: Smaller updates install faster and with less disruption to end users.

  • Hybrid-Work Friendly: Built to work well with Microsoft 365 and cloud services, giving your users the flexibility they expect and your team the control it needs.

The result? Less manual intervention, fewer support tickets, and more time for strategic IT work.
