What you need to know
- Our executive editor Daniel Rubino joined CBS to talk about Windows 11.
- The segment runs through the basics of the operating system and helps people understand broader topics related to the OS.
- It also focuses on Android apps coming to Windows 11.
The segment is mostly technology reporter Dan Patterson talking about the new OS. Rubino comes in around midway through the video. His segment goes through how TPM plays a role in stopping security vulnerabilities.
"When you boot up the operating system, it verifies that you're getting only Windows and checks that nothing was injected on the [operating system], like ransomware," said Rubino. Later in the segment, he explains how data stored for passwords is kept locally, "That information never goes to the cloud. It's stored on that chip and can never be back."
Rubino spoke with CBS for longer than the segment shown and shared some other quotes about Windows 11 that are in a written article.
Speaking of Windows 11 running Android apps, he said, "I almost look at this as a flex by Microsoft, that they could just do it because they can. It also reflects a new philosophy that you're going to be able to run anything on Windows 11. You want a Windows app, regardless if it's Android, if it's old or new, it shouldn't break any compatibility ... It's going to be just an option for people — it's about choice."
