If you do disable the Windows Security app service, or configure its associated Group Policy settings to prevent it from starting or running, the Windows Security app might display stale or inaccurate information about any antivirus or firewall products you have installed on the device. These are disabled automatically when a third-party antivirus or firewall product is installed and kept up to date. Disabling the Windows Security app service does not disable Microsoft Defender Antivirus or Windows Defender Firewall.
