### Choosing the Secure Hardware
When choosing hardware for your Windows system, you should consider selecting a [secured-core](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/business/windows-11-secured-core-computers) PC with long-term support, such as the Microsoft Surface for Business series. These devices offer enhanced security features and receive updates for an extended period to ensure optimal performance and protection.
