Windows 10 is being developed as a service, meaning it receives new features on a regular basis. Microsoft has released five major updates so far: November Update, Anniversary Update, Creators Update, Fall Creators Update, and April 2018 Update.
In a build released earlier this month, Microsoft renamed Windows Defender Security Center as Windows Security. I mentioned at the time that it’s certainly not rare for Microsoft to rename a feature, but it is rare for the company to make it simpler.

You can disable this new behavior in Windows Insider builds for testing purposes. Create the following registry key and reboot the device (this key will stop being available in a future build):
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\Feature
DisableAvCheck (DWORD) = 1
