## What happens when something is detected?
When EDR in block mode is turned on, and a malicious artifact is detected, the detection results in blocking and remediation actions. You'll see detection status as **Blocked** or **Remediated** as completed actions in the [Action center](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/manage-auto-investigation#review-completed-actions).

### Will EDR in block mode have any impact on a user's antivirus protection?
No. EDR in block mode does not affect third-party antivirus protection running on users' machines. EDR in block mode kicks in if the primary antivirus solution misses something, or if there is a post-breach detection. EDR in block mode works just like Windows Defender Antivirus in passive mode, with the additional steps of blocking and remediating malicious items that are detected.
