Hi,

When I am downloading an installer from here https://www.mongodb.com/download-center?jmp=nav#community

Then if I navigate to Linux and Mac , I get this type of message "This version of MongoDB does not restrict network access by default. Please review the security checklist for instructions on how to prevent unauthorized access." but not for Windows. Does that mean its not a problem in Windows? Or someone forgot to add it there?

Hi Sherry

You are right, it was an oversight. The Windows tab for the download page should display this warning as well.

I have notified the website team regarding this issue. Thanks for reporting this!
