Threat & Vulnerability Management introduces a new exposure score metric, which visually represents how exposed your machines are to imminent threats.
The exposure score is continuously calculated on each device in the organization and influenced by the following factors:

- Weaknesses, such as vulnerabilities discovered on the device
- External and internal threats such as public exploit code and security alerts
- Likelihood of the device to get breached given its current security posture
- Value of the device to the organization given its role and content

+# Windows Defender Antivirus together with Office 365
+
+**Applies to:**
+
+- Windows Defender Antivirus
+- Office 365
+
+You might already know that:
+
+- **Windows Defender Antivirus protects your Windows 10 device from software threats, such as viruses, malware, and spyware**. Windows Defender Antivirus is your complete, ongoing protection, built into Windows 10 and ready to go. [Windows Defender Antivirus is your next-generation protection](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-antivirus/windows-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10).
+
+- **Office 365 includes antiphishing, antispam, and antimalware protection**. With your Office 365 subscription, you get premium email and calendars, Office apps, 1 TB of cloud storage (via OneDrive), and advanced security across all your devices. This is true for home and business users. And if you're a business user, and your organization is using Office 365 E5, you get even more protection through Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection. [Protect against threats with Office 365](https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/protect-against-threats).
+
+- **OneDrive, included in Office 365, enables you to store your files and folders online, and share them as you see fit**. You can work together with people (for work or fun), and coauthor files that are stored in OneDrive. You can also access your files across all your devices (your PC, phone, and tablet). [Manage sharing in OneDrive](https://docs.microsoft.com/OneDrive/manage-sharing).
+
+**But did you know there are good security reasons to use Windows Defender Antivirus together with Office 365**? Here are two:
+
+ 1. [You get ransomware protection and recovery](#ransomware-protection-and-recovery).
+
+ 2. [Integration means better protection](#integration-means-better-protection).
+
+Read the following sections to learn more.
+
+## Ransomware protection and recovery
+
+When you save your files to [OneDrive](https://docs.microsoft.com/onedrive), and [Windows Defender Antivirus](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-antivirus/windows-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10) detects a ransomware threat on your device, the following things occur:
+
+1. **You are told about the threat**. (If your organization is using Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection, your security operations team is notified, too.)
+
+2. **Windows Defender Antivirus helps you (and your organization's security team) remove the ransomware** from your device(s).
+
+3. **You get the option to recover your files in OneDrive**. With the OneDrive Files Restore feature, you can recover your files in OneDrive to the state they were in before the ransomware attack occurred. See [Ransomware detection and recovering your files](https://support.office.com/article/0d90ec50-6bfd-40f4-acc7-b8c12c73637f).
+
+Think of the time and hassle this can save.
+
+## Integration means better protection
+
+Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection integrated with Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection means better protection. Here's how:
+
+- [Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection](https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/office-365-atp) safeguards your organization against malicious threats posed in email messages, email attachments, and links (URLs) in Office documents.
+
+ AND
+
+- [Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection) protects your devices from cyber threats, detects advanced attacks and data breaches, automates security incidents, and improves your security posture.
+
+ SO
+
+- Once integration is enabled, your security operations team can see a list of devices that are used by the recipients of any detected URLs or email messages, along with recent alerts for those devices, in the Microsoft Defender Security Center ([https://securitycenter.windows.com](https://securitycenter.windows.com)).
+
+If you haven't already done so, [integrate Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection with Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection](https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/integrate-office-365-ti-with-wdatp).
+
+## More good reasons to use OneDrive
+
+Protection from ransomware is one great reason to put your files in OneDrive. And there are several more good reasons, summarized in this video:

-Wildcards can be used at the beginning or end of a path rule: only one wildcard is allowed per path rule. Wildcards placed at the end of a path authorize all files in that path and its subdirectories recursively (ex. C:\\* would include C:\foo\\* ). Wildcards placed at the beginning of a path will allow the exact specified filename under any path (ex. \*\bar.exe would allow C:\bar.exe and C:\foo\bar.exe). Wildcards in the middle of a path are not supported (ex. C:\\*\foo.exe). Without a wildcard, the rule will allow only a specific file (ex. C:\foo\bar.exe).
Supported macros: %WINDIR%, %SYSTEM32%, %OSDRIVE%.

+Windows 10, version 1709 (also known as the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update) provides a new option, known as the Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph authorization, that allows IT administrators to automatically authorize applications that the Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph recognizes as having known good reputation. The the Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph option helps IT organizations take a significant first step towards going from having no application control at all to a simple means of preventing the execution of unknown and known bad software. To learn more about the Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph, see the Security section in [Major services and features in Microsoft Graph](https://docs.microsoft.com/graph/overview-major-services).
## How does the integration between WDAC and the Intelligent Security Graph work?
-The ISG relies on Microsoft’s vast security intelligence and machine learning analytics to help classify applications as having known good reputation. When users download applications on a system with WDAC enabled with the ISG authorization option specified, the reputation of the downloaded file, commonly an installer, is used to determine whether to run the installer and then that original reputation information is passed along to any files that were written by the installer. When any of these files try to execute after they are installed, the reputation data is used to help make the right policy authorization decision.

When any of these files try to execute after they are installed, the reputation data is used to help make the right policy authorization decision.
After that initial download and installation, the WDAC component will check for the presence of the positive reputation information when evaluating other application execution control rules specified in the policy. If there are no deny rules present for the file, it will be authorized based on the known good reputation classification.
The reputation data on the client is rechecked periodically and enterprises can also specify that any cached reputation results are flushed on reboot.
>[!NOTE]
->Admins needs to ensure that there is a WDAC policy in place to allow the system to boot and run any other authorized applications that may not be classified as being known good by the Intelligent Security Graph, for example custom line-of-business (LOB) apps. Since the Intelligent Security Graph is powered by global prevalence data, internal LOB apps may not be recognized as being known good. Other mechanisms like managed installer and explicit rules will help cover internal applications. Both Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager and Microsoft Intune can be used to create and push a WDAC policy to your client machines.

### Ensure that the Intelligent Security Graph option is enabled in the WDAC policy XML
-In order to enable trust for executables based on classifications in the ISG, the **Enabled:Intelligent Security Graph authorization** option must be specified in the WDAC policy. This can be done with the Set-RuleOption cmdlet. In addition, it is recommended from a security perspective to also enable the **Enabled:Invalidate EAs on Reboot** option to invalidate the cached ISG results on reboot to force rechecking of applications against the ISG. Caution is advised if devices will regularly transition to and from environments that may not be able to access the ISG. The following example shows both options being set.
