Is the security system of Windows 11 and ntoskrnl functioning normally in Task Manager?
There is a Secure System process in Task Manager. When I click on it, it shows ntoskrnl, and it is classified as WINDOWS in all capital letters (others are usually in lowercase). Is this normal? I don't know if I'm overthinking it.

ntoskrnl.exe is a normal Windows kernel process. Security-related items are typically security services. As long as CPU/memory usage remains within normal limits (<5%), there is no need for concern.
