Do you share your computer with someone else and not want them to access your Firewall & Network protection settings? If yes, then this is the place where you need to be.
In this article, we’ll see how you can hide or show the Firewall & Network protection settings area in Windows Security.
Why It’s Important to Hide the Firewall & Network Area in Windows Security

One of these is the Firewall & Network protection area. This is where you can view the Microsoft Defender Firewall status and the type of networks your device is connected to. You can also use it to block or allow an app through the firewall and reset firewall settings.
Therefore, keeping this area hidden is important, especially if you share your computer with someone else.
