When we find such an issue, we might apply holds to the updating service to prevent affected devices from installing the update in order to safeguard them from these experiences. We also use holds when a customer, a partner, or Microsoft internal validation finds an issue that would cause severe impact (for example, rollback of the update, data loss, loss of connectivity, or loss of key functionality) and when a workaround is not immediately available.
Safeguard holds prevent a device with a known issue from being offered a new operating system version. We renew the offering once a fix is found and verified. We use holds to ensure customers have a successful experience as their device moves to a new version of Windows 10.
The lifespan of holds varies depending on the time required to investigate and fix an issue. During this time Microsoft works diligently to procure, develop, and validate a fix and then offer it to affected devices. We monitor quality and compatibility data to confirm that a fix is complete before releasing the hold. Once we release the hold, Windows Update will resume offering new operating system versions to devices.
-Safeguard holds only affect devices that use the Window Update service for updates. We encourage IT admins who manage updates to devices through other channels (such as media installations or updates coming from Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)) to remain aware of known issues that might also be present in their environments.

+# Phishing trends and techniques
+
+Phishing attacks are scams that often use social engineering bait or lure content. Legitimate-looking communication, usually email, that links to a phishing site is one of the most common methods used in phishing attacks. The phishing site typically mimics sign in pages that require users to input credentials and account information. The phishing site then captures the sensitive information as soon as the user provides it, giving attackers access to the information.
+
+Below are some of the most common phishing techniques attackers will employ to try to steal information or gain access to your devices.
+
+## Invoice phishing
+
+In this scam, the attacker attempts to lure you with an email stating that you have an outstanding invoice from a known vendor or company. They then provide a link for you to access and pay your invoice. When you access the site, the attacker is poised to steal your personal information and funds.
+
+## Payment/delivery scam
+
+You're asked to provide a credit card or other personal information so that your payment information can be updated with a commonly known vendor or supplier. The update is requested so that you can take delivery of your ordered goods. Generally, you may be familiar with the company and have likely done business with them in the past. However, you aren't aware of any items you have recently purchased from them.
+
+## Tax-themed phishing scams
+
+A common IRS phishing scam is receiving an urgent email letter indicating that you owe money to the IRS. Often the email threatens legal action if you don't access the site in a timely manner and pay your taxes. When you access the site, the attackers can steal your personal credit card or bank information and drain your accounts.
+
+## Downloads
+
+An attacker sends a fraudulent email requesting you to open or download a document attachment, such as a PDF. The attachment often contains a message asking you to sign in to another site, such as email or file sharing websites, to open the document. When you access these phishing sites using your sign-in credentials, the attacker now has access to your information and can gain additional personal information about you.
+
+## Phishing emails that deliver other threats
+
+Phishing emails are often effective, so attackers sometimes use them to distribute [ransomware](ransomware-malware.md) through links or attachments in emails. When run, the ransomware encrypts files and displays a ransom note, which asks you to pay a sum of money to access to your files.
+
+We have also seen phishing emails that have links to [tech support scam](support-scams.md) websites. These websites use various scare tactics to trick you into calling hotlines and paying for unnecessary "technical support services" that supposedly fix contrived device, platform, or software problems.
+
+## Spear phishing
+
+Spear phishing is a targeted phishing attack that involves highly customized lure content. Attackers will typically do reconnaissance work by surveying social media and other information sources about their intended target.
+
+Spear phishing may involve tricking you into logging into fake sites and divulging credentials. I may also lure you into opening documents by clicking on links that automatically install malware. With this malware in place, attackers can remotely manipulate the infected computer.
+
+The implanted malware serves as the point of entry for a more sophisticated attack, known as an advanced persistent threat (APT). APTs are designed to establish control and steal data over extended periods. Attackers may try to deploy more covert hacking tools, move laterally to other computers, compromise or create privileged accounts, and regularly exfiltrate information from compromised networks.
+
+## Whaling
+
+Whaling is a form of phishing directed at high-level or senior executives within specific companies to gain access to their credentials and/or bank information. The content of the email may be written as a legal subpoena, customer complaint, or other executive issue. This type of attack can also lead to an APT attack within an organization.
+
+## Business email compromise
+
+Business email compromise (BEC) is a sophisticated scam that targets businesses who frequently work with foreign suppliers or do money wire transfers. One of the most common schemes used by BEC attackers involves gaining access to a company’s network through a spear phishing attack. The attacker creates a domain similar to the company they're targeting, or spoofs their email to scam users into releasing personal account information for money transfers.

+# How to protect against phishing attacks
Phishing attacks attempt to steal sensitive information through emails, websites, text messages, or other forms of electronic communication. They try to look like official communication from legitimate companies or individuals.
Cybercriminals often attempt to steal usernames, passwords, credit card details, bank account information, or other credentials. They use stolen information for malicious purposes, such as hacking, identity theft, or stealing money directly from bank accounts and credit cards. The information can also be sold in cybercriminal underground markets.
-## What to do if you've been a victim of a phishing scam
-
-If you feel you've been a victim of a phishing attack:
-
-1. Contact your IT admin if you are on a work computer.
-2. Immediately change all passwords associated with the accounts.
-3. Report any fraudulent activity to your bank and credit card company.
-
-### Reporting spam
-
-- **Outlook.com**: If you receive a suspicious email message that asks for personal information, select the check box next to the message in your Outlook inbox. Select the arrow next to **Junk**, and then select **Phishing**.
-
-- **Microsoft Office Outlook**: While in the suspicious message, select **Report message** from the ribbon, and then select **Phishing**.
-
-- **Microsoft**: Create a new, blank email message with the one of the following recipients:
- - Junk: junk@office365.microsoft.com
- - Phishing: phish@office365.microsoft.com
-
- Drag and drop the junk or phishing message into the new message. This will save the junk or phishing message as an attachment in the new message. Don't copy and paste the content of the message or forward the message (we need the original message so we can inspect the message headers). For more information, see [Submit spam, non-spam, and phishing scam messages to Microsoft for analysis](https://docs.microsoft.com/office365/SecurityCompliance/submit-spam-non-spam-and-phishing-scam-messages-to-microsoft-for-analysis).
-
-- **Anti-Phishing Working Group**: phishing-report@us-cert.gov. The group uses reports generated from emails sent to fight phishing scams and hackers. ISPs, security vendors, financial institutions, and law enforcement agencies are involved.
-
-If you’re on a suspicious website:
-
-- **Microsoft Edge**: While you’re on a suspicious site, select the **More (…) icon** > **Help and feedback** > **Report Unsafe site**. Follow the instructions on the webpage that displays to report the website.
-
-- **Internet Explorer**: While you’re on a suspicious site, select the gear icon, point to **Safety**, and then select **Report Unsafe Website**. Follow the instructions on the webpage that displays to report the website.

-## How phishing works
-
-Phishing attacks are scams that often use social engineering bait or lure content. For example, during tax season bait content can be tax-filing announcements that attempt to lure you into providing personal information such as your SSN or bank account information.

-Legitimate-looking communication, usually email, that links to a phishing site is one of the most common methods used in phishing attacks. The phishing site typically mimics sign in pages that require users to input credentials and account information.

+## What to do if you've been a victim of a phishing scam
+
+If you feel you've been a victim of a phishing attack:
+
+1. Contact your IT admin if you are on a work computer
+2. Immediately change all passwords associated with the accounts
+3. Report any fraudulent activity to your bank and credit card company
+
+### Reporting spam
+
+- **Outlook.com**: If you receive a suspicious email message that asks for personal information, select the check box next to the message in your Outlook inbox. Select the arrow next to **Junk**, and then select **Phishing**.
+
+- **Microsoft Office Outlook**: While in the suspicious message, select **Report message** from the ribbon, and then select **Phishing**.
+
+- **Microsoft**: Create a new, blank email message with the one of the following recipients:
+ - Junk: junk@office365.microsoft.com
+ - Phishing: phish@office365.microsoft.com
+
+ Drag and drop the junk or phishing message into the new message. This will save the junk or phishing message as an attachment in the new message. Don't copy and paste the content of the message or forward the message (we need the original message so we can inspect the message headers). For more information, see [Submit spam, non-spam, and phishing scam messages to Microsoft for analysis](https://docs.microsoft.com/office365/SecurityCompliance/submit-spam-non-spam-and-phishing-scam-messages-to-microsoft-for-analysis).
+
+- **Anti-Phishing Working Group**: phishing-report@us-cert.gov. The group uses reports generated from emails sent to fight phishing scams and hackers. ISPs, security vendors, financial institutions, and law enforcement agencies are involved.
+
+### If you’re on a suspicious website
+
+- **Microsoft Edge**: While you’re on a suspicious site, select the **More (…) icon** > **Help and feedback** > **Report Unsafe site**. Follow the instructions on the webpage that displays to report the website.
+
+- **Internet Explorer**: While you’re on a suspicious site, select the gear icon, point to **Safety**, and then select **Report Unsafe Website**. Follow the instructions on the webpage that displays to report the website.

+Block at first sight only uses the cloud protection backend for executable files and non-portable executable files that are downloaded from the Internet, or that originate from the Internet zone. A hash value of the .exe file is checked via the cloud backend to determine if the file is a previously undetected file.
If the cloud backend is unable to make a determination, Microsoft Defender Antivirus locks the file and uploads a copy to the cloud. The cloud performs additional analysis to reach a determination before it either allows the file to run or blocks it in all future encounters, depending on whether it determines the file to be malicious or safe.
In many cases, this process can reduce the response time for new malware from hours to seconds.

Microsoft Defender Offline is an antimalware scanning tool that lets you boot and run a scan from a trusted environment. The scan runs from outside the normal Windows kernel so it can target malware that attempts to bypass the Windows shell, such as viruses and rootkits that infect or overwrite the master boot record (MBR).

Microsoft Defender Application Guard (Application Guard) works with Group Policy to help you manage your organization's computer settings. By using Group Policy, you can configure a setting once, and then copy it onto many computers. For example, you can set up multiple security settings in a GPO, which is linked to a domain, and then apply all those settings to every computer in the domain.

+# Onboard Windows 10 multi-session devices in Windows Virtual Desktop
+6 minutes to read
+
+Applies to:
+- Windows 10 multi-session running on Windows Virtual Desktop (WVD)
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Welcome to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, the new name for Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection. Read more about this and other updates here. We'll be updating names in products and in the docs in the near future.
+
+> [!WARNING]
+> Microsoft Defender for Endpoint support for Windows Virtual Desktop multi-session scenarios is currently in Preview and limited up to 25 concurrent sessions per host/VM. However, single session scenarios on Windows Virtual Desktop are fully supported.
+
+Microsoft Defender for Endpoint supports monitoring both VDI as well as Windows Virtual Desktop sessions. Depending on your organization's needs, you might need to implement VDI or Windows Virtual Desktop sessions to help your employees access corporate data and apps from an unmanaged device, remote location, or similar scenario. With Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, you can monitor these virtual machines for anomalous activity.
+
+ ## Before you begin
+Familiarize yourself with the [considerations for non-persistent VDI](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-endpoints-vdi#onboard-non-persistent-virtual-desktop-infrastructure-vdi-devices-1). While [Windows Virtual Desktop](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/virtual-desktop/overview) does not provide non-persistence options, it does provide ways to use a golden Windows image that can be used to provision new hosts and redeploy machines. This increases volatility in the environment and thus impacts what entries are created and maintained in the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint portal, potentially reducing visibility for your security analysts.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Depending on your choice of onboarding method, devices can appear in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint portal as either:
+> - Single entry for each virtual desktop
+> - Multiple entries for each virtual desktop
+
+Microsoft recommends onboarding Windows Virtual Desktop as a single entry per virtual desktop. This ensures that the investigation experience in the Microsoft Defender Endpoint portal is in the context of one device based on the machine name. Organizations that frequently delete and re-deploy WVD hosts should strongly consider using this method as it prevents multiple objects for the same machine from being created in the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint portal. This can lead to confusion when investigating incidents. For test or non-volatile environments, you may opt to choose differently.
+
+Microsoft recommends adding the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint onboarding script to the WVD golden image. This way, you can be sure that this onboarding script runs immediately at first boot. It is executed as a startup script at first boot on all the WVD machines that are provisioned from the WVD golden image. However, if you are using one of the gallery images without modification, place the script in a shared location and call it from either local or domain group policy.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The placement and configuration of the VDI onboarding startup script on the WVD golden image configures it as a startup script that runs when the WVD starts. It is NOT recommended to onboard the actual WVD golden image. Another consideration is the method used to run the script. It should run as early in the startup/provisioning process as possible to reduce the time between the machine being available to receive sessions and the device onboarding to the service. Below scenarios 1 & 2 take this into account.
+
+### Scenarios
+There are several ways to onboard a WVD host machine:
+
+- Run the script in the golden image (or from a shared location) during startup.
+- Use a management tool to run the script.
+
+#### *Scenario 1: Using local group policy*
+This scenario requires placing the script in a golden image and uses local group policy to run early in the boot process.
+
+Use the instructions in [Onboard non-persistent virtual desktop infrastructure VDI devices](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-endpoints-vdi#onboard-non-persistent-virtual-desktop-infrastructure-vdi-devices-1).
+
+Follow the instructions for a single entry for each device.
+
+#### *Scenario 2: Using domain group policy*
+This scenario uses a centrally located script and runs it using a domain-based group policy. You can also place the script in the golden image and run it in the same way.
+
+**Download the WindowsDefenderATPOnboardingPackage.zip file from the Windows Defender Security Center**
+1. Open the VDI configuration package .zip file (WindowsDefenderATPOnboardingPackage.zip)
+ - In the Microsoft Defender Security Center navigation pane, select **Settings** > **Onboarding**.
+ - Select Windows 10 as the operating system.
+ - In the **Deployment method** field, select VDI onboarding scripts for non-persistent endpoints.
+ - Click **Download package** and save the .zip file.
+2. Extract the contents of the .zip file to a shared, read-only location that can be accessed by the device. You should have a folder called **OptionalParamsPolicy** and the files **WindowsDefenderATPOnboardingScript.cmd** and **Onboard-NonPersistentMachine.ps1**.
+
+**Use Group Policy management console to run the script when the virtual machine starts**
+1. Open the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC), right-click the Group Policy Object (GPO) you want to configure and click **Edit**.
+1. In the Group Policy Management Editor, go to **Computer configuration** \> **Preferences** \> **Control panel settings**.
+1. Right-click **Scheduled tasks**, click **New**, and then click **Immediate Task** (At least Windows 7).
+1. In the Task window that opens, go to the **General** tab. Under **Security options** click **Change User or Group** and type SYSTEM. Click **Check Names** and then click OK. NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM appears as the user account the task will run as.
+1. Select **Run whether user is logged on or not** and check the **Run with highest privileges** check box.
+1. Go to the **Actions** tab and click **New**. Ensure that **Start a program** is selected in the Action field.
+Enter the following:
+
+> Action = "Start a program"
+> Program/Script = C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
+> Add Arguments (optional) = -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -command "& \\Path\To\Onboard-NonPersistentMachine.ps1"
+
+Click **OK** and close any open GPMC windows.
+
+#### *Scenario 3: Onboarding using management tools*
+
+If you plan to manage your machines using a management tool, you can onboard devices with Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.
+
+For more information, see: [Onboard Windows 10 devices using Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-endpoints-sccm)
+
+> [!WARNING]
+> If you plan to use [Attack Surface reduction Rules](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/attack-surface-reduction), please note that rule “[Block process creations originating from PSExec and WMI commands](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/attack-surface-reduction#block-process-creations-originating-from-psexec-and-wmi-commands)" should not be used as it is incompatible with management through Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager because this rule blocks WMI commands the Configuration Manager client uses to function correctly.
+
+> [!TIP]
+> After onboarding the device, you can choose to run a detection test to verify that the device is properly onboarded to the service. For more information, see [Run a detection test on a newly onboarded Microsoft Defender for Endpoint device](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/run-detection-test).
+
+#### Tagging your machines when building your golden image
+
+As part of your onboarding, you may want to consider setting a machine tag to be able to differentiate WVD machines more easily in the Microsoft Security Center. For more information, see
+[Add device tags by setting a registry key value](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/machine-tags#add-device-tags-by-setting-a-registry-key-value).
+
+#### Other recommended configuration settings
+
+When building your golden image, you may want to configure initial protection settings as well. For more information, see [Other recommended configuration settings](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-endpoints-gp#other-recommended-configuration-settings).
+
+In addition, if you are using FSlogix user profiles, we recommend you exclude the following files from always-on protection:
+
+**Exclude Files:**
+
+> %ProgramFiles%\FSLogix\Apps\frxdrv.sys
+> %ProgramFiles%\FSLogix\Apps\frxdrvvt.sys
+> %ProgramFiles%\FSLogix\Apps\frxccd.sys
+> %TEMP%\*.VHD
+> %TEMP%\*.VHDX
+> %Windir%\TEMP\*.VHD
+> %Windir%\TEMP\*.VHDX
+> \\storageaccount.file.core.windows.net\share\*\*.VHD
+> \\storageaccount.file.core.windows.net\share\*\*.VHDX
+
+**Exclude Processes:**
+
+> %ProgramFiles%\FSLogix\Apps\frxccd.exe
+> %ProgramFiles%\FSLogix\Apps\frxccds.exe
+> %ProgramFiles%\FSLogix\Apps\frxsvc.exe
+
+#### Licensing requirements
+
+Windows 10 Multi-session is a client OS. Licensing requirements for Microsoft Defender for endpoint can be found at: [Licensing requirements](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/minimum-requirements#licensing-requirements).

Cybersecurity weaknesses identified in your organization are mapped to actionable security recommendations and prioritized by their impact. Prioritized recommendations help shorten the time to mitigate or remediate vulnerabilities and drive compliance.
Each security recommendation includes actionable remediation steps. To help with task management, the recommendation can also be sent using Microsoft Intune and Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager. When the threat landscape changes, the recommendation also changes as it continuously collects information from your environment.
