Windows 10: do I need to have network access protection turned on in action center?

In system and security settings, action center, I have everything on except Network Access Protection. Is that something most basic users need? Other items turned on are: Firewall, defender, virus protection, user account control, smart screen etc. Just wondered if I need to turn it on as well.
