WannaCrypt vulnerability in Win 10

Hello

I have Win 10 Pro installed and keep up to date with all the latest updates.

1. Would having sandbox (Sandboxie) as additional layer of protection, has any merits in prevention from above such attack?

Or one will have to have paid version of the  MBAM?

I did a scan after updating to the latest version with Home unpaid edition of the Mal warebytes Anti-Malware Home (free) 2.2.1.1043 this morning. An item was quarantined : "Trojan.Ertfor 14/05/2017  07:47 File .....\name.STUDYROOM\AppData\Local\Temp\Login.exe.

Is this ^^ above  anything to do with the recent world wide causing infestation?

2. I read it on some site about having "firewall", I would have thought the Win 10 on instalment have it's firewall activated automatic- A bit confused by the above statement.

My virus protection is the one dispatched (bundled) with Win 10  Pro. ( This is just a statement)

In addition to prudent behaviour in when opening emails attachments, visiting web sites with caution...ect what else one could do!!
