Microsoft Defender Flags Tor Browser as Win32/Malgent!MTB Malware
Microsoft Defender, a popular antivirus program, is mistakenly detecting Tor Browser as Win32/Malgent!MTB malware. This is causing concern among users who rely on Tor Browser for privacy and security. The false positive is attributed to the heuristic detection method employed by Microsoft Defender. The current advice to users is to download the latest version of the browser when it becomes available or to add the Tor Browser to the exclusion list on Microsoft Defender.
