Quiet voice - security feature of Windows? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shutter

'security feature of windows?' is the definition.

'quiet voice' is the wordplay.
'quiet' becomes 'sh'.
'voice' becomes 'utter' (I've seen this before).
'sh'+'utter'='SHUTTER'

(Other definitions for shutter that I've seen before include "Hinged window blind" , "Camera mechanism" , "Moveable window screen" , "camera component" , "Hinged window cover" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
