Check your cloud-delivered protection level for Microsoft Defender Antivirus. By default, this is set to **Not configured**, which corresponds to a normal level of protection for most organizations. If your cloud-delivered protection is set to **High**, **High +**, or **Zero tolerance**, you might experience a higher number of false positives.

We recommend using Microsoft Endpoint Manager to edit your cloud-delivered protection settings.
#### Use Microsoft Endpoint Manager to review and edit cloud-delivered protection settings
1. Go to the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center ([https://endpoint.microsoft.com](https://endpoint.microsoft.com)) and sign in.
2. Choose Endpoint security > Antivirus and then select an existing policy. (If you don’t have an existing policy, or you want to create a new policy, skip to the next procedure).
3. Under **Manage**, select **Properties**. Then, next to **Configuration settings**, choose **Edit**.
4. Expand **Cloud protection**, and review your current setting in the **Cloud-delivered protection level** row. We recommend setting this to **Not configured**, which provides strong protection while reducing the chances of getting false positives.
5. Choose **Review + save**, and then **Save**.
