## How feedback-loop blocking works
When a suspicious behavior or file is detected, such as by [Microsoft Defender Antivirus](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-antivirus/windows-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10), information about that artifact is sent to multiple classifiers. The rapid protection loop engine inspects and correlates the information with other signals to arrive at a decision as to whether to block a file. All of this happens very quickly. It results in rapid blocking of confirmed malware, and drives protection across the entire ecosystem.

With rapid protection in place, an attack can be stopped on a device, other devices in the organization, and devices in other organizations, as an attack attempts to broaden its foothold.
