+# Using a proxy with Delivery Optimization
+
+**Applies to**: Windows 10
+
+When Delivery Optimization downloads content from HTTP sources, it uses the automatic proxy discovery capability of WinHttp to streamline and maximize the support for complex proxy configurations as it makes range requests from the content server. It does this by setting the **WINHTTP_ACCESS_TYPE_AUTOMATIC_PROXY** flag in all HTTP calls.
+
+Delivery Optimization provides a token to WinHttp that corresponds to the user that is signed in currently. In turn, WinHttp automatically authenticates the user against the proxy server set either in Internet Explorer or in the **Proxy Settings** menu in Windows.
+
+For downloads that use Delivery Optimization to successfully use the proxy, you should set the proxy via Windows **Proxy Settings** or the Internet Explorer proxy settings.
+
+Setting the Internet Explorer proxy to apply device-wide will ensure that the device can access the proxy server even when no user is signed in. In this case, the proxy is accessed with the “NetworkService” context if proxy authentication is required.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> We don't recommend that you use `netsh winhttp set proxy ProxyServerName:PortNumber`. Using this offers no auto-detection of the proxy, no support for an explicit PAC URL, and no authentication to the proxy. This setting is ignored by WinHTTP for requests that use auto-discovery (if an interactive user token is used).
+
+If a user is signed in, the system uses the Internet Explorer proxy.
+
+If no user is signed in, even if both the Internet Explorer proxy and netsh configuration are set, the netsh configuration will take precedence over the Internet Explorer proxy. This can result in download failures. For example, you might receive HTTP_E_STATUS_PROXY_AUTH_REQ or HTTP_E_STATUS_DENIED errors.
+
+You can still use netsh to import the proxy setting from Internet Explorer (`netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie `) if your proxy configuration is a static *proxyServerName:Port*. However, the same limitations mentioned previously apply.
+
+### Summary of settings behavior
+
+These tables summarize the behavior for various combinations of settings:
+
+With an interactive user signed in:
+
+|Named proxy set by using: |Delivery Optimization successfully uses proxy |
+|---------|---------|
+|Internet Explorer proxy, current user | Yes |
+|Internet Explorer proxy, device-wide | Yes |
+|netsh proxy | No |
+|Both Internet Explorer proxy (current user) *and* netsh proxy | Yes, Internet Explorer proxy is used |
+|Both Internet Explorer proxy (device-wide) *and* netsh proxy | Yes, Internet Explorer proxy is used |
+
+With NetworkService (if unable to obtain a user token from a signed-in user):
+
+|Named proxy set by using: |Delivery Optimization successfully uses proxy |
+|---------|---------|
+|Internet Explorer proxy, current user | No |
+|Internet Explorer proxy, device-wide | Yes |
+|netsh proxy | Yes |
+|Both Internet Explorer proxy (current user) *and* netsh proxy | Yes, netsh proxy is used |
+|Both Internet Explorer proxy (device-wide) *and* netsh proxy | Yes, netsh proxy is used |
+
+## Setting a device-wide Internet Explorer proxy
+
+You can set a device-wide proxy that will apply to all users including an interactive user, LocalSystem, and NetworkService by using the [Network Proxy CSP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/networkproxy-csp).
+
+Or, if you use Group Policy, you can apply proxy settings to all users of the same device by enabling the **Computer Configuration\ Administrative Templates\ Windows Components\ Internet Explorer\ Make proxy settings per-machine (rather than per-user)** policy.
+
+This policy is meant to ensure that proxy settings apply uniformly to the same computer and do not vary from user to user, so if you enable this policy, users cannot set user-specific proxy settings. They must use the zones created for all users of the computer. If you disable this policy or do not configure it, users of the same computer can establish their own proxy settings.
+
+## Using a proxy with Microsoft Connected Cache
+
+Starting with Windows 10, version 2004, you can use Connected Cache behind a proxy. In older versions, when you set Delivery Optimization to download from Connected Cache, it will bypass the proxy and try to connect directly to the Connected Cache server. This can cause failure to download.
+
+However, you can set the Connected Cache server to use an unauthenticated proxy. For more information, see [Microsoft Connected Cache in Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/core/plan-design/hierarchy/microsoft-connected-cache#prerequisites-and-limitations).

We include information here about a number of different update types you'll hear about, but the two overarching types which you have the most direct control over are *feature updates* and *quality updates*.
-- **Feature updates:** Released twice per year, around March and September. Feature updates add new features and functionality to Windows 10. Because they are delivered frequently (rather than every 3-5 years), they are easier to manage.
+- **Feature updates:** Released twice per year, during the first half and second half of each calendar year. Feature updates add new features and functionality to Windows 10. Because they are delivered frequently (rather than every 3-5 years), they are easier to manage.
- **Quality updates:** Quality updates deliver both security and non-security fixes to Windows 10. Quality updates include security updates, critical updates, servicing stack updates, and driver updates. They are typically released on the second Tuesday of each month, though they can be released at any time. The second-Tuesday releases are the ones that focus on security updates. Quality updates are *cumulative*, so installing the latest quality update is sufficient to get all the available fixes for a specific Windows 10 feature update, including any out-of-band security fixes and any *servicing stack updates* that might have been released previously.
-- **Servicing stack updates:** The "servicing stack" is the code component that actually installs Windows updates. From time to time, the servicing stack itself needs to be updated in order to function smoothly. If you don't install the latest servicing stack update, there's a risk that your device can't be updated with the latest Microsoft security fixes. Servicing stack updates are not necessarily included in *every* monthly quality update, and occasionally are released out of band to address a late-breaking issue. Always install the latest available quality update to catch any servicing stack updates that might have been released. The servicing stack also contains the "component-based servicing stack" (CBS), which is a key underlying component for several elements of Windows deployment, such as DISM, SFC, changing Windows features or roles, and repairing components. The CBS is a small component that typically does not have updates released every month. You can find a list of servicing stack updates at [Latest servicing stack updates](https://portal.msrc.microsoft.com/en-us/security-guidance/advisory/ADV990001). For more detail about servicing stack updates, see [Servicing stack updates](servicing-stack-updates.md).

You don't have to add more languages and features to the image to accomplish the updates, but it's an opportunity to customize the image with more languages, Optional Components, and Features on Demand beyond what is in your starting image. To do this, it's important to make these changes in the correct order: first apply servicing stack updates, followed by language additions, then by feature additions, and finally the latest cumulative update. The provided sample script installs a second language (in this case Japanese (ja-JP)). Since this language is backed by an lp.cab, there's no need to add a Language Experience Pack. Japanese is added to both the main operating system and to the recovery environment to allow the user to see the recovery screens in Japanese. This includes adding localized versions of the packages currently installed in the recovery image.
-Optional Components, along with the .Net feature, can be installed offline, however doing so creates pending operations that require the device to restart. As a result, the call to perform image cleanup would fail. There are two options to avoid this. One option is to skip the image cleanup step, though that will result in a larger install.wim. Another option is to install the .Net and Optional Components in a step after cleanup but before export. This is the option in the sample script. By doing this, you will have to start with the original install.wim (with no pending actions) when you maintain or update the image the next time (for example, the next month).

# Prepare servicing strategy for Windows 10 updates
@@ -29,9 +30,9 @@ In the past, traditional Windows deployments tended to be large, lengthy, and ex
Windows 10 spreads the traditional deployment effort of a Windows upgrade, which typically occurred every few years, over smaller, continuous updates. With this change, you must approach the ongoing deployment and servicing of Windows differently. A strong Windows 10 deployment strategy begins with establishing a simple, repeatable process for testing and deploying each feature update. Here’s an example of what this process might look like:
- **Configure test devices.** Configure test devices in the Windows Insider Program so that Insiders can test feature updates before they’re available to the Semi-Annual Channel. Typically, this would be a small number of test devices that IT staff members use to evaluate pre-release builds of Windows. Microsoft provides current development builds to Windows Insider members approximately every week so that interested users can see the functionality Microsoft is adding. See the section Windows Insider for details on how to enroll in the Windows Insider Program on a Windows 10 device.
-- **Identify excluded devices.** For some organizations, special-purpose devices such as those used to control factory or medical equipment or run ATMs require a stricter, less frequent feature update cycle than the Semi-annual Channel can offer. For those machines, you must install Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB to avoid feature updates for up to 10 years. Identify these devices, and separate them from the phased deployment and servicing cycles to help remove confusion for your administrators and ensure that devices are handled correctly.
+- **Identify excluded devices.** For some organizations, special-purpose devices such as those used to control factory or medical equipment or run ATMs require a stricter, less frequent feature update cycle than the Semi-Annual Channel can offer. For those machines, you must install Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB to avoid feature updates for up to 10 years. Identify these devices, and separate them from the phased deployment and servicing cycles to help remove confusion for your administrators and ensure that devices are handled correctly.
- **Recruit volunteers.** The purpose of testing a deployment is to receive feedback. One effective way to recruit pilot users is to request volunteers. When doing so, clearly state that you’re looking for feedback rather than people to just “try it out” and that there could be occasional issues involved with accepting feature updates right away. With Windows as a service, the expectation is that there should be few issues, but if an issue does arise, you want testers to let you know as soon as possible. When considering whom to recruit for pilot groups, be sure to include members who provide the broadest set of applications and devices to validate the largest number of apps and devices possible.
-- **Update Group Policy.** Each feature update includes new group policies to manage new features. If you use Group Policy to manage devices, the Group Policy Admin for the Active Directory domain will need to download a .admx package and copy it to their [Central Store](https://support.microsoft.com/help/929841/how-to-create-the-central-store-for-group-policy-administrative-templa) (or to the [PolicyDefinitions](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/bb530196.aspx) directory in the SYSVOL of a domain controller if not using a Central Store). Always manage new group polices from the version of Windows 10 they shipped with by using the Remote Server Administration Tools. The ADMX download package is created at the end of each development cycle and then posted for download. To find the ADMX download package for a given Windows build, search for “ADMX download for Windows build xxxx”. For details about Group Policy management, see [How to create and manage the Central Store for Group Policy Administrative Templates in Windows](https://support.microsoft.com/help/3087759/how-to-create-and-manage-the-central-store-for-group-policy-administra)

- **Choose a servicing tool.** Decide which product you’ll use to manage the Windows updates in your environment. If you’re currently using Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager to manage your Windows updates, you can continue using those products to manage Windows 10 updates. Alternatively, you can use Windows Update for Business. In addition to which product you’ll use, consider how you’ll deliver the updates. With Windows 10, multiple peer-to-peer options are available to make update distribution faster. For a comparison of tools, see [Servicing tools](waas-overview.md#servicing-tools).
- **Prioritize applications.** First, create an application portfolio. This list should include everything installed in your organization and any webpages your organization hosts. Next, prioritize this list to identify those that are the most business critical. Because the expectation is that application compatibility with Windows 10 will be high, only the most business critical applications should be tested before the pilot phase; everything else can be tested afterwards. For more information about identifying compatibility issues withe applications, see [Manage Windows upgrades with Upgrade Analytics](../upgrade/manage-windows-upgrades-with-upgrade-readiness.md).
@@ -43,7 +44,7 @@ Windows 10 spreads the traditional deployment effort of a Windows upgrade, which
Each time Microsoft releases a Windows 10 feature update, the IT department should use the following high-level process to help ensure that the broad deployment is successful:
1. **Validate compatibility of business critical apps.** Test your most important business-critical applications for compatibility with the new Windows 10 feature update running on your Windows Insider machines identified in the earlier “Configure test machines” step of the Predeployment strategy section. The list of applications involved in this validation process should be small because most applications can be tested during the pilot phase. For more information about device and application compatibility in Windows 10, see the section Compatibility.
-2. **Target and react to feedback.** With Windows 10, Microsoft expects application and device compatibility to be high, but it’s still important to have targeted groups within both the IT department and business units to verify application compatibility for the remaining applications in your application portfolio. Because only the most business-critical applications are tested beforehand, this will represent the majority of application compatibility testing in your environment. This should not necessarily be a formal process but rather user validation through the use of a particular application. So, the next step is to deploy the feature update to early-adopting IT users and your targeted groups running in the Semi-annual channel that you identified in the “Recruit volunteers” step of the Predeployment strategy section. Be sure to communicate clearly that you’re looking for feedback as soon as possible, and state exactly how users can submit feedback to you. Should an issue arise, have a remediation plan in place to address it.

Should an issue arise, have a remediation plan in place to address it.
3. **Deploy broadly.** Finally, focus on the large-scale deployment using deployment rings, like the ones discussed in Table 1. Build deployment rings that target groups of computers in your selected update-management product. To reduce risk as much as possible, construct your deployment rings in a way that splits individual departments into multiple rings. This way, if you were to encounter an issue, you don’t prevent any critical business from continuing. By using this method, each deployment ring reduces risk as more and more people have been updated in any particular department.

Because drivers are so important, they are cryptographically signed to ensure they are genuine. Drivers with a *.sys extension that are not properly signed frequently block the upgrade process. Drivers might not be properly signed if you:
+- Disabled driver signature verification (highly not recommended).
+- A catalog file used to sign a driver is corrupt or missing.
+
+ Catalog files (files with a *.cat extension) are used to sign drivers. If a catalog file is corrupt or missing, the driver will appear to be unsigned, even though it should be signed. To restore the catalog file, reinstall the driver or copy the catalog file from another device. You might need to analyze another device to determine the catalog file that is associated with the unsigned driver. All drivers should be signed to ensure the upgrade process works.
+
+To check your system for unsigned drivers:
+
+1. Click **Start**.
+2. Type **command**.
+3. Right-click **Command Prompt** and then left-click **Run as administrator**.
+4. If you are prompted by UAC, click **Yes**.
+5. Type **sigverif** and press ENTER.
+6. The File Signature Verification tool will open. Click **Start**.
+
+ 
+
+7. After the scanning process is complete, if you see **Your files have been scanned and verified as digitally signed** then you have no unsigned drivers. Otherwise, you will see **The following files have not been digitally signed** and a list will be provided with name, location, and version of all unsigned drivers.
+8. To view and save a log file, click **Advanced**, and then click **View Log**. Save the log file if desired.
+9. Locate drivers in the log file that are unsigned, write down the location and file names. Also write down the catalog that is associated to the driver if it is provided. If the name of a catalog file is not provided you might need to analyze another device that has the same driver with sigverif and sigcheck (described below).
+10. The next step is to check that the driver reported as unsigned by sigverif.exe has a problem. In some cases, sigverif.exe might not be successful at locating the catalog file used to sign a driver, even though the catalog file exists. To perform a detailed driver check, download [sigcheck.zip](https://download.sysinternals.com/files/Sigcheck.zip) and extract the tool to a directory on your computer, for example: **C:\sigcheck**.
+
+ [Sigcheck](https://docs.microsoft.com/sysinternals/downloads/sigcheck) is a tool that you can download and use to review digital signature details of a file. To use sigcheck:
+
+11. In the command window, use the **cd** command to switch to the directory where you extracted sigcheck, for example **cd c:\sigcheck**.
+12. Using the list of unsigned drivers and their associated paths that you obtained from the File Signature Verification tool, run sigcheck to obtain details about the driver, including the catalog file used for signing. Type **sigcheck64 -i \** and press ENTER (or sigcheck -i for a 32 bit OS). See the following example:
+ ```
+ C:\Sigcheck>sigcheck64.exe -i c:\windows\system32\drivers\afd.sys

+
+
+13. Optionally, you can generate a list of drivers using driverquery.exe, which is included with Windows. To save a list of signed and unsigned drivers with driverquery, type **driverquery /si > c:\drivers.txt** and press ENTER. See the following example:
+
+ ```cmd

Computers that run Citrix VDA
You may see this message after you upgrade a computer from Windows 10, version 1511 to Windows 10, version 1607. After the second system restart, the system generates this error and then rolls back to the previous version. This problem has also been observed in upgrades to Windows 8.1 and Windows 8.
This problem occurs because the computer has Citrix Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) installed. Citrix VDA installs device drivers and a file system filter driver (CtxMcsWbc). This Citrix filter driver prevents the upgrade from writing changes to the disk, so the upgrade cannot complete and the system rolls back.
**Resolution**
To resolve this problem, install [Cumulative update for Windows 10 Version 1607 and Windows Server 2016: November 8, 2016](https://support.microsoft.com/help/3200970/cumulative-update-for-windows-10-version-1607-and-windows-server-2016).
You can work around this problem in two ways:
**Workaround 1**
1. Use the VDA setup application (VDAWorkstationSetup_7.11) to uninstall Citrix VDA.
2. Run the Windows upgrade again.
3. Reinstall Citrix VDA.
**Workaround 2**
If you cannot uninstall Citrix VDA, follow these steps to work around this problem:
1. In Registry Editor, go to the following subkey:
**HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e967-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\CtxMcsWbc**
2. Change the value of the **Start** entry from **0** to **4**. This change disables the Citrix MCS cache service.
3. Go to the following subkey:

## Managing Multiple Activation Key (MAK) and Retail Activation
You can use a MAK or a retail product key to activate Windows, Windows Server, or Office on an individual computer or a group of computers. VAMT enables two different activation scenarios:
-- **Online activation.** Many enterprises maintain a single Windows system image or Office installation package for deployment across the enterprise. Occasionally there is also a need to use retail product keys in special situations. Online activation enables you to activate over the Internet any products installed with MAK, KMS host, or retail product keys on one or more connected computers within a network. This process requires that each product communicate activation information directly to Microsoft.
-- **Proxy activation.** This activation method enables you to perform volume activation for products installed on client computers that do not have Internet access. The VAMT host computer distributes a MAK, KMS Host key (CSVLK), or retail product key to one or more client products and collects the installation ID (IID) from each client product. The VAMT host sends the IIDs to Microsoft on behalf of the client products and obtains the corresponding Confirmation IDs (CIDs). The VAMT host then installs the CIDs on the client products to complete the activation. Using this method, only the VAMT host computer needs Internet access. You can also activate products installed on computers in a workgroup that is completely isolated from any larger network, by installing a second instance of VAMT on a computer within the workgroup. Then, use removable media to transfer activation data between this new instance of VAMT and the Internet-connected VAMT host.

VAMT can install and activate GVLK (KMS client) keys on client products. GVLKs are the default product keys used by Volume License editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2012 as well as Microsoft Office 2010.

VAMT provides a single, graphical user interface for managing activations, and for performing other activation-related tasks such as:
-- **Adding and removing computers.** You can use VAMT to discover computers in the local environment. VAMT can discover computers by querying AD DS, workgroups, by individual computer name or IP address, or via a general LDAP query.
-- **Discovering products.** You can use VAMT to discover Windows, Windows Server, Office, and select other products installed on the client computers.
-- **Monitoring activation status.** You can collect activation information about each product, including the last 5 characters of the product key being used, the current license state (such as Licensed, Grace, Unlicensed), and the product edition information.
-- **Managing product keys.** You can store multiple product keys and use VAMT to install these keys to remote client products. You can also determine the number of activations remaining for MAKs.
-- **Managing activation data.** VAMT stores activation data in a SQL database. VAMT can export this data to other VAMT hosts or to an archive in XML format.

### Baseline protections
-|Baseline Protections | Description | Security benefits
+|Baseline Protections|Description|Security benefits
|---|---|---|
-| Hardware: **64-bit CPU** | A 64-bit computer is required for the Windows hypervisor to provide VBS. |
-| Hardware: **CPU virtualization extensions**,
plus **extended page tables** | **Requirements**: These hardware features are required for VBS:
One of the following virtualization extensions:
• VT-x (Intel) or
• AMD-V
And:
• Extended page tables, also called Second Level Address Translation (SLAT). | VBS provides isolation of secure kernel from normal operating system. Vulnerabilities and Day 0s in normal operating system cannot be exploited because of this isolation. |
-| Hardware: **Trusted Platform Module (TPM)** | **Requirement**: TPM 1.2 or TPM 2.0, either discrete or firmware.
[TPM recommendations](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/keep-secure/tpm-recommendations) | A TPM provides protection for VBS encryption keys that are stored in the firmware. This helps protect against attacks involving a physically present user with BIOS access. |
-| Firmware: **UEFI firmware version 2.3.1.c or higher with UEFI Secure Boot** | **Requirements**: See the following Windows Hardware Compatibility Program requirement: [System.Fundamentals.Firmware.UEFISecureBoot](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/dn932805.aspx#system-fundamentals-firmware-uefisecureboot)| UEFI Secure Boot helps ensure that the device boots only authorized code. This can prevent boot kits and root kits from installing and persisting across reboots. |
-| Firmware: **Secure firmware update process** | **Requirements**: UEFI firmware must support secure firmware update found under the following Windows Hardware Compatibility Program requirement: [System.Fundamentals.Firmware.UEFISecureBoot](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/windows/hardware/dn932805.aspx#system-fundamentals-firmware-uefisecureboot).| UEFI firmware just like software can have security vulnerabilities that, when found, need to be patched through firmware updates. Patching helps prevent root kits from getting installed. |
-| Software: Qualified **Windows operating system** | **Requirement**: Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016.

### Using information rights management systems
To help address the potential data loss prevention system problems, companies developed information rights management (also known as IRM) systems. Information rights management systems embed protection directly into documents, so that when an employee creates a document, he or she determines what kind of protection to apply. For example, an employee can choose to stop the document from being forwarded, printed, shared outside of the organization, and so on.

+[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 Defender rebranding](../../includes/microsoft-defender.md)]
+
+**Applies to:**
+
+- [Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=2069559)
+
+You can find help here if you encounter issues while migrating from a third-party security solution to Microsoft Defender Antivirus.
+
+## Review event logs
+
+Open the Event viewer app by selecting the **Search** icon in the taskbar, and searching for *event viewer*.
+
+Information about Microsoft Defender Antivirus can be found under **Applications and Services Logs** > **Microsoft** > **Windows** > **Windows Defender**.
+
+From there, select **Open** underneath **Operational**.
+
+Selecting an event from the details pane will show you more information about an event in the lower pane, under the **General** and **Details** tabs.
+
+## Microsoft Defender Antivirus won't start
+
+This issue can manifest in the form of several different event IDs, all of which have the same underlying cause.
+
+### Associated event IDs
+
+ Event ID | Log name | Description | Source
+-|-|-|-
+15 | Application | Updated Windows Defender status successfully to SECURITY_PRODUCT_STATE_OFF. | Security Center
+5007 | Microsoft-Windows-Windows Defender/Operational | Windows Defender Antivirus Configuration has changed. If this is an unexpected event you should review the settings as this may be the result of malware.
**Old value:** Default\IsServiceRunning = 0x0
**New value:** HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Defender\IsServiceRunning = 0x1 | Windows Defender
+5010 | Microsoft-Windows-Windows Defender/Operational | Windows Defender Antivirus scanning for spyware and other potentially unwanted software is disabled. | Windows Defender
+
+### How to tell if Microsoft Defender Antivirus won't start because a third-party antivirus is installed
+
+On a Windows 10 device, if you are not using Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP), and you have a third-party antivirus installed, then Microsoft Defender Antivirus will be automatically turned off. If you are using Microsoft Defender ATP with a third-party antivirus installed, Microsoft Defender Antivirus will start in passive mode, with reduced functionality.
+
+> [!TIP]
+> The scenario just described applies only to Windows 10. Other versions of Windows have [different responses](microsoft-defender-antivirus-compatibility.md) to Microsoft Defender Antivirus being run alongside third-party security software.
+
+#### Use Services app to check if Microsoft Defender Antivirus is turned off
+
+To open the Services app, select the **Search** icon from the taskbar and search for *services*. You can also open the app from the command-line by typing *services.msc*.
+
+Information about Microsoft Defender Antivirus will be listed within the Services app under **Windows Defender** > **Operational**. The antivirus service name is *Windows Defender Antivirus Service*.
+
+While checking the app, you may see that *Windows Defender Antivirus Service* is set to manual — but when you try to start this service manually, you get a warning stating, *The Windows Defender Antivirus Service service on Local Computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs.*
+
+This indicates that Microsoft Defender Antivirus has been automatically turned off to preserve compatibility with a third-party antivirus.
+
+#### Generate a detailed report
+
+You can generate a detailed report about currently active group policies by opening a command prompt in **Run as admin** mode, then entering the following command:
+
+```powershell
+GPresult.exe /h gpresult.html
+```
+
+This will generate a report located at *./gpresult.html*. Open this file and you might see the following results, depending on how Microsoft Defender Antivirus was turned off.
+
+##### Group policy results
+
+##### If security settings are implemented via group policy (GPO) at the domain or local level, or though System center configuration manager (SCCM)
+
+Within the GPResults report, under the heading, *Windows Components/Windows Defender Antivirus*, you may see something like the following entry, indicating that Microsoft Defender Antivirus is turned off.
+
+Policy | Setting | Winning GPO
+-|-|-
+Turn off Windows Defender Antivirus | Enabled | Win10-Workstations
+
+###### If security settings are implemented via Group policy preference (GPP)
+
+Under the heading, *Registry item (Key path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender, Value name: DisableAntiSpyware)*, you may see something like the following entry, indicating that Microsoft Defender Antivirus is turned off.
+
+DisableAntiSpyware | -
+-|-

+Result: Success |
+**General** |
+Action | Update
+**Properties** |
+Hive | HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
+Key path | SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender
+Value name | DisableAntiSpyware
+Value type | REG_DWORD
+Value data | 0x1 (1)
+
+###### If security settings are implemented via registry key
+
+The report may contain the following text, indicating that Microsoft Defender Antivirus is turned off:
+
+> Registry (regedit.exe)
+>
+> HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender
+> DisableAntiSpyware (dword) 1 (hex)
+
+###### If security settings are set in Windows or your Windows Server image
+
+Your imagining admin might have set the security policy, **[DisableAntiSpyware](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/customize/desktop/unattend/security-malware-windows-defender-disableantispyware)**, locally via *GPEdit.exe*, *LGPO.exe*, or by modifying the registry in their task sequence. You can [configure a Trusted Image Identifier](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/configure-a-trusted-image-identifier-for-windows-defender) for Microsoft Defender Antivirus.
+
+### Turn Microsoft Defender Antivirus back on
+
+Microsoft Defender Antivirus will automatically turn on if no other antivirus is currently active. You'll need to turn the third-party antivirus completely off to ensure Microsoft Defender Antivirus can run with full functionality.
+
+> [!WARNING]

Passive mode allows Microsoft Defender to scan files and update itself, but it will not remediate threats. In addition, behavior monitoring via [Real Time Protection](configure-real-time-protection-microsoft-defender-antivirus.md) is not available under passive mode, unless [Endpoint data loss prevention (DLP)](../microsoft-defender-atp/information-protection-in-windows-overview.md) is deployed.

### Why does my encryption driver break Microsoft Defender Application Guard?
-Microsoft Defender Application Guard accesses files from a VHD mounted on the host that needs to be written during setup. If an encryption driver prevents a VHD from being mounted or from being written to, Microsoft Defender Application Guard will not work, and will result in an error message (*0x80070013 ERROR_WRITE_PROTECT*).
-
-### Why do the network isolation policies in Group Policy and CSP look different?
-
-There is not a one-to-one mapping among all the network isolation policies between CSP and GP. Mandatory network isolation policies to deploy WDAG are different between CSP and GP.
-
-Mandatory network isolation GP policy to deploy WDAG: "DomainSubnets or CloudResources"
-Mandatory network isolation CSP policy to deploy WDAG: "EnterpriseCloudResources or (EnterpriseIpRange and EnterpriseNetworkDomainNames)"
-For EnterpriseNetworkDomainNames, there is no mapped CSP policy.

### Why did Application Guard stop working after I turned off hyperthreading?
-If hyperthreading is disabled (because of an update applied through a KB article or through BIOS settings), there is a possibility that Microsoft Defender Application Guard no longer meets the minimum requirements.
-
-### Why am I getting the error message ("ERROR_VIRTUAL_DISK_LIMITATION")?
-
-Application Guard may not work correctly on NTFS compressed volumes. If this issue persists, try uncompressing the volume.
-
-### Why am I getting the error message ("ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED") after not being able to reach PAC file?
-
-This is a known issue. To mitigate this you need to create two firewall rules.
-For guidance on how to create a firewall rule by using group policy, see:
-- [Create an inbound icmp rule](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/create-an-inbound-icmp-rule)
-- [Open Group Policy management console for Microsoft Defender Firewall](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/open-the-group-policy-management-console-to-windows-firewall-with-advanced-security)
-
-First rule (DHCP Server):
-1. Program path: `%SystemRoot%\System32\svchost.exe`
-2. Local Service: Sid: `S-1-5-80-2009329905-444645132-2728249442-922493431-93864177` (Internet Connection Service (SharedAccess))
-3. Protocol UDP
-4. Port 67
-
-Second rule (DHCP Client)
-This is the same as the first rule, but scoped to local port 68.
-In the Microsoft Defender Firewall user interface go through the following steps:
-1. Right click on inbound rules, create a new rule.
-2. Choose **custom rule**.
-3. Program path: **%SystemRoot%\System32\svchost.exe**.
-4. Protocol Type: UDP, Specific ports: 67, Remote port: any.
-5. Any IP addresses.
-6. Allow the connection.
-7. All profiles.
-8. The new rule should show up in the user interface. Right click on the **rule** > **properties**.
-9. In the **Programs and services** tab, Under the **Services** section click on **settings**. Choose **Apply to this Service** and select **Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) Shared Access**.
-
-### Why can I not launch Application Guard when Exploit Guard is enabled?
-
-There is a known issue where if you change the Exploit Protection settings for CFG and possibly others, hvsimgr cannot launch. To mitigate this issue, go to **Windows Security** > **App and Browser control** > **Exploit Protection Setting**, and then switch CFG to the **use default**.
-
-
-### How can I have ICS in enabled state yet still use Application Guard?
-
-This is a two step process.
-
-Step 1:
-
-Enable Internet Connection sharing by changing the Group Policy setting **Prohibit use of Internet Connection Sharing on your DNS domain network.** This setting is part of the Microsoft security baseline. Change it from **Enabled** to **Disabled**.
-
-Step 2:
-
-1. Disable IpNat.sys from ICS load:
-`System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\DisableIpNat = 1`.
-2. Configure ICS (SharedAccess) to enabled:
-`HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Start = 3`.
-3. Disable IPNAT (Optional):
-`HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\IPNat\Start = 4`.
-4. Restart the device.
-
-### Why doesn't Application Guard work, even though it's enabled through Group Policy?
-
-Application Guard must meet all these prerequisites to be enabled in Enterprise mode: [System requirements for Microsoft Defender Application Guard](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-application-guard/reqs-md-app-guard).
-To understand why it is not enabled in Enterprise mode, check the status of the evaluation to understand what's missing.
-
-For CSP (Intune) you can query the status node by using **Get**. This is described in the [Application Guard CSP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/windowsdefenderapplicationguard-csp). On this page, you will see the **status** node as well as the meaning of each bit. If the status is not 63, you are missing a prerequisite.
-
-For Group Policy you need to look at the registry. See **Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\HVSIGP** Status. The meaning of each bit is the same as the CSP.
-
-### I'm encountering TCP fragmentation issues, and cannot enable my VPN connection. How do I fix this?
-
-WinNAT drops ICMP/UDP messages with packets greater than MTU when using Default Switch or Docker NAT network. Support for this has been added in [KB4571744](https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=4571744). To fix the issue, install the update and enable the fix by following these steps:
-
-1. Ensure that the FragmentAware DWORD is set to 1 in this registry setting: `\Registry\Machine\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winnat`.
-
-2. Reboot the device.
+If hyperthreading is disabled (because of an update applied through a KB article or through BIOS settings), there is a possibility Application Guard no longer meets the minimum requirements.

+[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 Defender rebranding](../../includes/microsoft-defender.md)]
+
+**Applies to:**
+
+- [Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=2069559)
+
+Use the `AssignedIPAddresses()` function in your advanced hunting queries to quickly obtain the latest IP addresses that have been assigned to a device. If you specify a timestamp argument, this function obtains the most recent IP addresses at the specified time.
+
+This function returns a table with the following columns:
+
+Column | Data type | Description
+-|-|-
+`Timestamp` | datetime | Latest time when the device was observed using the IP address
+`IPAddress` | string | IP address used by the device
+`IPType` | string | Indicates whether the IP address is a public or private address
+`NetworkAdapterType` | int | Network adapter type used by the device that has been assigned the IP address. For the possible values, refer to [this enumeration](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/api/system.net.networkinformation.networkinterfacetype)
+`ConnectedNetworks` | int | Networks that the adapter with the assigned IP address is connected to. Each JSON array contains the network name, category (public, private, or domain), a description, and a flag indicating if it's connected publicly to the internet
+
+## Syntax
+
+```kusto
+AssignedIPAddresses(x, y)
+```
+
+## Arguments
+
+- **x**—`DeviceId` or `DeviceName` value identifying the device
+- **y**—`Timestamp` (datetime) value instructing the function to obtain the most recent assigned IP addresses from a specific time. If not specified, the function returns the latest IP addresses.
+
+## Examples
+
+### Get the list of IP addresses used by a device 24 hours ago
+
+```kusto
+AssignedIPAddresses('example-device-name', ago(1d))
+```
+
+### Get IP addresses used by a device and find devices communicating with it
+
+This query uses the `AssignedIPAddresses()` function to get assigned IP addresses for the device (`example-device-name`) on or before a specific date (`example-date`). It then uses the IP addresses to find connections to the device initiated by other devices.
+
+```kusto
+let Date = datetime(example-date);
+let DeviceName = "example-device-name";
+// List IP addresses used on or before the specified date
+AssignedIPAddresses(DeviceName, Date)
+| project DeviceName, IPAddress, AssignedTime = Timestamp
+// Get all network events on devices with the assigned IP addresses as the destination addresses
+| join kind=inner DeviceNetworkEvents on $left.IPAddress == $right.RemoteIP
+// Get only network events around the time the IP address was assigned
+| where Timestamp between ((AssignedTime - 1h) .. (AssignedTime + 1h))

### Queries with process IDs

Process IDs (PIDs) are recycled in Windows and reused for new processes. On their own, they can't serve as unique identifiers for specific processes. To get a unique identifier for a process on a specific device, use the process ID together with the process creation time. When you join or summarize data around processes, include columns for the device identifier (either `DeviceId` or `DeviceName`), the process ID (`ProcessId` or `InitiatingProcessId`), and the process creation time (`ProcessCreationTime` or `InitiatingProcessCreationTime`).
The following example query finds processes that access more than 10 IP addresses over port 445 (SMB), possibly scanning for file shares.

Command lines can vary. When applicable, filter on file names and do fuzzy matching.
There are numerous ways to construct a command line to accomplish a task. For example, an attacker could reference an image file with or without a path, without a file extension, using environment variables, or with quotes. In addition, the attacker could also change the order of parameters or add multiple quotes and spaces.

+# Quickly hunt for entity or event information with go hunt
+
+[!INCLUDE [Microsoft 365 Defender rebranding](../../includes/microsoft-defender.md)]
+
+- [Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=2069559)
+
+With the *go hunt* action, you can quickly investigate events and various entity types using powerful query-based [advanced hunting](advanced-hunting-overview.md) capabilities. This action automatically runs an advanced hunting query to find relevant information about the selected event or entity.
+
+The *go hunt* action is available in various sections of the security center whenever event or entity details are displayed. For example, you can use *go hunt* from the following sections:
+
+- In the [incident page](investigate-incidents.md), you can review details about users, devices, and many other entities associated with an incident. When you select an entity, you get additional information as well as various actions you could take on that entity. In the example below, a device is selected, showing details about the device as well the option to hunt for more information about the device.
+
+ 
+
+- In the incident page, you can also access a list of entities under the evidence tab. Selecting one of those entities provides an option to quickly hunt for information about that entity.
+
+ 
+
+- When viewing the timeline for a device, you can select an event in the timeline to view additional information about that event. Once an event is selected, you get the option to hunt for other relevant events in advanced hunting.
+
+ 
+
+Selecting **Go hunt** or **Hunt for related events** passes different queries, depending on whether you've selected an entity or an event.
+
+## Query for entity information
+
+When using *go hunt* to query for information about a user, device, or any other type of entity, the query checks all relevant schema tables for any events involving that entity. To keep the results manageable, the query is scoped to around the same time period as the earliest activity in the past 30 days that involves the entity and is associated with the incident.
+
+Here is an example of the go hunt query for a device:
+
+```kusto
+let selectedTimestamp = datetime(2020-06-02T02:06:47.1167157Z);
+let deviceName = "fv-az770.example.com";
+let deviceId = "device-guid";
+search in (DeviceLogonEvents, DeviceProcessEvents, DeviceNetworkEvents, DeviceFileEvents, DeviceRegistryEvents, DeviceImageLoadEvents, DeviceEvents, DeviceImageLoadEvents, IdentityLogonEvents, IdentityQueryEvents)
+Timestamp between ((selectedTimestamp - 1h) .. (selectedTimestamp + 1h))
+and DeviceName == deviceName
+// or RemoteDeviceName == deviceName
+// or DeviceId == deviceId
+| take 100
+```
+
+### Supported entity types
+
+You can use *go hunt* after selecting any of these entity types:
+
+- Files
+- Users
+- Devices
+- IP addresses
+- URLs
+
+## Query for event information
+
+When using *go hunt* to query for information about a timeline event, the query checks all relevant schema tables for other events around the time of the selected event. For example, the following query lists events in various schema tables that occurred around the same time period on the same device:
+
+```kusto
+// List relevant events 30 minutes before and after selected RegistryValueSet event
+let selectedEventTimestamp = datetime(2020-10-06T21:40:25.3466868Z);
+search in (DeviceFileEvents, DeviceProcessEvents, DeviceEvents, DeviceRegistryEvents, DeviceNetworkEvents, DeviceImageLoadEvents, DeviceLogonEvents)
+ Timestamp between ((selectedEventTimestamp - 30m) .. (selectedEventTimestamp + 30m))
+ and DeviceId == "a305b52049c4658ec63ae8b55becfe5954c654a4"
+| sort by Timestamp desc
+| extend Relevance = iff(Timestamp == selectedEventTimestamp, "Selected event", iff(Timestamp < selectedEventTimestamp, "Earlier event", "Later event"))
+| project-reorder Relevance
+```
+
+## Adjust the query
+
+With some knowledge of the [query language](advanced-hunting-query-language.md), you can adjust the query to your preference. For example, you can adjust this line, which determines the size of the time window:
+
+```kusto
+Timestamp between ((selectedTimestamp - 1h) .. (selectedTimestamp + 1h))
+```
+
+In addition to modifying the query to get more relevant results, you can also:

## Data freshness and update frequency
+
Advanced hunting data can be categorized into two distinct types, each consolidated differently.
- **Event or activity data**—populates tables about alerts, security events, system events, and routine assessments. Advanced hunting receives this data almost immediately after the sensors that collect them successfully transmit them to Microsoft Defender ATP.
- **Entity data**—populates tables with consolidated information about users and devices. This data comes from both relatively static data sources and dynamic sources, such as Active Directory entries and event logs. To provide fresh data, tables are updated with any new information every 15 minutes, adding rows that might not be fully populated. Every 24 hours, data is consolidated to insert a record that contains the latest, most comprehensive data set about each entity.

+
+## Quarantine files
+
+You can deploy the *quarantine* action on files so that they are automatically quarantined when encountered. When selecting this action, you can choose between the following columns to identify which files in your query results to quarantine:
+
+- `SHA1` — In most advanced hunting tables, this is the SHA-1 of the file that was affected by the recorded action. For example, if a file was copied, this would be the copied file.
+- `InitiatingProcessSHA1` — In most advanced hunting tables, this is the file responsible for initiating the recorded action. For example, if a child process was launched, this would be the parent process.
+- `SHA256` — This is the SHA-256 equivalent of the file identified by the `SHA1` column.
+- `InitiatingProcessSHA256` — This is the SHA-256 equivalent of the file identified by the `InitiatingProcessSHA1` column.
+
+To learn more about how quarantine actions are taken and how files can be restored, [read about response actions on files](respond-file-alerts.md).
+
+>[!NOTE]
+>To locate files and quarantine them, the query results should also include `DeviceId` values as device identifiers.
+
+## Take action
+
+To take any of the described actions, select one or more records in your query results and then select **Take actions**. A wizard will guide you through the process of selecting and then submitting your preferred actions.
+
+
+
+## Review actions taken
+
+Each action is individually recorded in the action center, under **Action center** > **History** ([security.microsoft.com/action-center/history](https://security.microsoft.com/action-center/history)). Go to the action center to check the status of each action.

-Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP) offers a wide breadth of visibility on multiple devices. With this kind of optics, the service generates a multitude of alerts. The volume of alerts generated can be challenging for a typical security operations team to individually address. To address this challenge, and to reduce the volume of alerts that must be investigated individually, Microsoft Defender ATP includes automated investigation and remediation capabilities.
+Your security operations team receives an alert whenever a malicious or suspicious artifact is detected by Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Security operations teams face challenges in addressing the multitude of alerts that arise from the seemingly never-ending flow of threats. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint includes automated investigation and remediation capabilities that can help your security operations team address threats more efficiently and effectively.
-Automated investigation leverages various inspection algorithms, and processes used by analysts (such as playbooks) to examine alerts and take immediate remediation action to resolve breaches. Automated investigation and remediation capabilities significantly reduce alert volume, allowing security operations experts to focus on more sophisticated threats and other high value initiatives. The **Automated investigations** list shows all the investigations that were initiated automatically, and includes details, such as status, detection source, and when each investigation was initiated.

## How the automated investigation starts
-When an alert is triggered, a security playbook goes into effect. Depending on the security playbook, an automated investigation can start. For example, suppose a malicious file resides on a device. When that file is detected, an alert is triggered, and the automated investigation process begins. Microsoft Defender ATP checks to see if the malicious file is present on any other devices in the organization. Details from the investigation, including verdicts (*Malicious*, *Suspicious*, and *No threats found*) are available during and after the automated investigation.

-### A few points to keep in mind
-
-- Your level of automation is determined by your device group settings. See [Set up device groups](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-automated-investigations-remediation#set-up-device-groups).
-
-- If your Microsoft Defender ATP tenant was created before August 16, 2020, you have a default device group that is configured for semi-automatic remediation. Any malicious entity that calls for remediation requires an approval and the investigation is added to the **Pending actions** tab in the [Action center](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/auto-investigation-action-center#the-action-center). You can configure your device groups to use full automation so that no user approval is needed.
-
-- If your Microsoft Defender ATP tenant was created on or after August 16, 2020, you have a default device group that is configured for full automation. Remediation actions are taken automatically for entities that are considered to be malicious. Remediation actions that were taken can be viewed on the **History** tab in the [Action center](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/auto-investigation-action-center#the-action-center).
+> If your tenant already has device groups defined, then the automation level settings are not changed for those device groups.

### Required columns in the query results
-To use a query for a custom detection rule, the query must return the `Timestamp`, `DeviceId`, and `ReportId` columns in the results. Simple queries, such as those that don't use the `project` or `summarize` operator to customize or aggregate results, typically return these common columns.

-The sample query below counts the number of unique devices (`DeviceId`) with antivirus detections and uses this count to find only the devices with more than five detections.

+## Step 9: Configure Network Extension
+
+As part of the Endpoint Detection and Response capabilities, Microsoft Defender ATP for Mac inspects socket traffic and reports this information to the Microsoft Defender Security Center portal. The following policy allows the network extension to perform this functionality.
+
+>[!NOTE]
+>JAMF doesn’t have built-in support for content filtering policies, which are a pre-requisite for enabling the network extensions that Microsoft Defender ATP for Mac installs on the device. Furthermore, JAMF sometimes changes the content of the policies being deployed.
+>As such, the following steps provide a workaround that involve signing the configuration profile.
+
+1. Download `netfilter.mobileconfig` from [our GitHub repository](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/mdatp-xplat/master/macos/mobileconfig/profiles/netfilter.mobileconfig) to your device and save it as `com.microsoft.network-extension.mobileconfig`
+
+2. Follow the instructions on [this page](https://www.jamf.com/jamf-nation/articles/649/creating-a-signing-certificate-using-jamf-pro-s-built-in-certificate-authority) to create a signing certificate using JAMF’s built-in certificate authority
+
+3. After the certificate is created and installed to your device, run the following command from the Terminal from a macOS device:
+
+ ```bash
+ $ security cms -S -N "" -i com.microsoft.network-extension.mobileconfig -o com.microsoft.network-extension.signed.mobileconfig
+ ```
+
+ 
+
+4. From the JAMF portal, navigate to **Configuration Profiles** and click the **Upload** button.
+
+ 
+
+5. Select **Choose File** and select `microsoft.network-extension.signed.mobileconfig`.
+
+ 
+
+6. Select **Upload**.
+
+ 
+
+7. After uploading the file, you are redirected to a new page to finalize the creation of this profile.

## Summary
-In enterprise organizations, Microsoft Defender ATP for Mac can be managed through a configuration profile that is deployed by using one of several management tools. Preferences that are managed by your security operations team take precedence over preferences that are set locally on the device. Users in your organization are not able to change preferences that are set through the configuration profile.
+In enterprise organizations, Microsoft Defender ATP for Mac can be managed through a configuration profile that is deployed by using one of several management tools. Preferences that are managed by your security operations team take precedence over preferences that are set locally on the device. Changing the preferences that are set through the configuration profile requires escalated privileges and is not available for users without administrative permissions.
This article describes the structure of the configuration profile, includes a recommended profile that you can use to get started, and provides instructions on how to deploy the profile.

+# Make the switch from a non-Microsoft endpoint solution to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
+
+If you are planning to switch from a non-Microsoft endpoint protection solution to [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection), and you're looking for help, you're in the right place. Use this article as a guide to plan your migration.
+
+> [!TIP]
+> - If you're currently using McAfee Endpoint Security (McAfee), see [Migrate from McAfee to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](mcafee-to-microsoft-defender-migration.md).
+> - If you're currently using Symantec Endpoint Protection (Symantec), see [Migrate from Symantec to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](symantec-to-microsoft-defender-atp-migration.md).
+
+## The migration process
+
+When you switch to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, you follow a process that can be divided into three phases, as described in the following table:
+
+|Phase |Description |
+|--|--|
+|[](switch-to-microsoft-defender-prepare.md)
[Prepare for your migration](switch-to-microsoft-defender-prepare.md) |During [the **Prepare** phase](switch-to-microsoft-defender-prepare.md), you update your organization's devices, get Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, plan your roles and permissions, and grant access to the Microsoft Defender Security Center. You also configure your device proxy and internet settings to enable communication between your organization's devices and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. |
+|[](switch-to-microsoft-defender-setup.md)
[Set up Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](switch-to-microsoft-defender-setup.md) |During [the **Setup** phase](switch-to-microsoft-defender-setup.md), you enable Microsoft Defender Antivirus and make sure it's in passive mode, and you configure settings & exclusions for Microsoft Defender Antivirus, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, and your existing endpoint protection solution. You also create device groups, collections, and organizational units. Finally, you configure your antimalware policies and real-time protection settings.|
+|[](switch-to-microsoft-defender-onboard.md)
[Onboard to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](switch-to-microsoft-defender-onboard.md) |During [the **Onboard** phase](switch-to-microsoft-defender-onboard.md), you onboard your devices to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint and verify that those devices are communicating with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Last, you uninstall your existing endpoint protection solution and make sure that protection through Microsoft Defender Antivirus & Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is in active mode. |
+
+## What's included in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint?
+
+In this migration guide, we focus on [next-generation protection](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/microsoft-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10) and [endpoint detection and response](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/overview-endpoint-detection-response) capabilities as a starting point for moving to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. However, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint includes much more than antivirus and endpoint protection. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is a unified platform for preventative protection, post-breach detection, automated investigation, and response. The following table summarizes features and capabilities in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.
+
+| Feature/Capability | Description |
+|---|---|
+| [Threat & vulnerability management](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/next-gen-threat-and-vuln-mgt) | Threat & vulnerability management capabilities help identify, assess, and remediate weaknesses across your endpoints (such as devices). |
+| [Attack surface reduction](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/overview-attack-surface-reduction) | Attack surface reduction rules help protect your organization's devices and applications from cyberthreats and attacks. |
+| [Next-generation protection](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-antivirus/windows-defender-antivirus-in-windows-10) | Next-generation protection includes Microsoft Defender Antivirus to help block threats and malware. |
+| [Endpoint detection and response](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/overview-endpoint-detection-response) | Endpoint detection and response capabilities detect, investigate, and respond to intrusion attempts and active breaches. |
+| [Advanced hunting](advanced-hunting-overview.md) | Advanced hunting capabilities enable your security operations team to locate indicators and entities of known or potential threats. |
+| [Behavioral blocking and containment](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/behavioral-blocking-containment) | Behavioral blocking and containment capabilities help identify and stop threats, based on their behaviors and process trees even when the threat has started execution. |
+| [Automated investigation and remediation](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/automated-investigations) | Automated investigation and response capabilities examine alerts and take immediate remediation action to resolve breaches. |
+| [Threat hunting service](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/microsoft-threat-experts) (Microsoft Threat Experts) | Threat hunting services provide security operations teams with expert level monitoring and analysis, and to help ensure that critical threats aren't missed. |

[Phase 3: Onboard](switch-to-microsoft-defender-onboard.md) |
+|--|--|--|
+|*You are here!*| | |
+
+
+**Welcome to the Prepare phase of [switching to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](switch-to-microsoft-defender-migration.md#the-migration-process)**.
+
+This migration phase includes the following steps:
+1. [Get and deploy updates across your organization's devices](#get-and-deploy-updates-across-your-organizations-devices)
+2. [Get Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](#get-microsoft-defender-for-endpoint).
+3. [Grant access to the Microsoft Defender Security Center](#grant-access-to-the-microsoft-defender-security-center).
+4. [Configure device proxy and internet connectivity settings](#configure-device-proxy-and-internet-connectivity-settings).
+
+## Get and deploy updates across your organization's devices
+
+As a best practice, keep your organization's devices and endpoints up to date. Make sure your existing endpoint protection and antivirus solution is up to date, and that the operating systems and apps your organization is also have the latest updates. Doing this now can help prevent problems later as you migrate to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint and Microsoft Defender Antivirus.
+
+### Make sure your existing solution is up to date
+
+Keep your existing endpoint protection solution up to date, and make sure that your organization's devices have the latest security updates.
+
+Need help? See your solution provider's documentation.
+
+### Make sure your organization's devices are up to date
+
+Need help updating your organization's devices? See the following resources:
+
+|OS | Resource |
+|:--|:--|
+|Windows |[Microsoft Update](https://www.update.microsoft.com) |
+|macOS | [How to update the software on your Mac](https://support.apple.com/HT201541)|
+|iOS |[Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch](https://support.apple.com/HT204204)|
+|Android |[Check & update your Android version](https://support.google.com/android/answer/7680439) |
+|Linux | [Linux 101: Updating Your System](https://www.linux.com/training-tutorials/linux-101-updating-your-system) |
+
+## Get Microsoft Defender for Endpoint
+
+Now that you've updated your organization's devices, the next step is to get Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, assign licenses, and make sure the service is provisioned.
+
+1. Buy or try Microsoft Defender for Endpoint today. [Start a free trial or request a quote](https://aka.ms/mdatp).
+
+2. Verify that your licenses are properly provisioned. [Check your license state](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/production-deployment#check-license-state).
+
+3. As a global administrator or security administrator, set up your dedicated cloud instance of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. See [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint setup: Tenant configuration](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/production-deployment#tenant-configuration).
+
+4. If endpoints (such as devices) in your organization use a proxy to access the internet, see [Microsoft Defender for Endpoint setup: Network configuration](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/production-deployment#network-configuration).
+
+At this point, you are ready to grant access to your security administrators and security operators who will use the Microsoft Defender Security Center ([https://aka.ms/MDATPportal](https://aka.ms/MDATPportal)).
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The Microsoft Defender Security Center is sometimes referred to as the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint portal, and can be accessed at [https://aka.ms/MDATPportal](https://aka.ms/MDATPportal).
+
+## Grant access to the Microsoft Defender Security Center
+
+The Microsoft Defender Security Center ([https://aka.ms/MDATPportal](https://aka.ms/MDATPportal)) is where you access and configure features and capabilities of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. To learn more, see [Overview of the Microsoft Defender Security Center](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/use).
+
+Permissions to the Microsoft Defender Security Center can be granted by using either basic permissions or role-based access control (RBAC). We recommend using RBAC so that you have more granular control over permissions.
+
+1. Plan the roles and permissions for your security administrators and security operators. See [Role-based access control](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/prepare-deployment#role-based-access-control).
+
+2. Set up and configure RBAC. We recommend using [Intune](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/intune/fundamentals/what-is-intune) to configure RBAC, especially if your organization is using a combination of Windows 10, macOS, iOS, and Android devices. See [setting up RBAC using Intune](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/intune/fundamentals/role-based-access-control).
+
+ If your organization requires a method other than Intune, choose one of the following options:
+ - [Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/core/servers/deploy/configure/configure-role-based-administration)
+ - [Advanced Group Policy Management](https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoft-desktop-optimization-pack/agpm)
+ - [Windows Admin Center](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-server/manage/windows-admin-center/overview)
+
+3. Grant access to the Microsoft Defender Security Center. (Need help? See [Manage portal access using RBAC](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/rbac)).
+
+## Configure device proxy and internet connectivity settings
+
+To enable communication between your devices and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, configure proxy and internet settings. The following table includes links to resources you can use to configure your proxy and internet settings for various operating systems and capabilities:

+
+
+**Welcome to the Setup phase of [switching to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint](switch-to-microsoft-defender-migration.md#the-migration-process)**. This phase includes the following steps:
+1. [Enable Microsoft Defender Antivirus and confirm it's in passive mode](#enable-microsoft-defender-antivirus-and-confirm-its-in-passive-mode).
+2. [Get updates for Microsoft Defender Antivirus](#get-updates-for-microsoft-defender-antivirus).

+6. [Set up your device groups, device collections, and organizational units](#set-up-your-device-groups-device-collections-and-organizational-units).
+7. [Configure antimalware policies and real-time protection](#configure-antimalware-policies-and-real-time-protection).
+
+## Enable Microsoft Defender Antivirus and confirm it's in passive mode
+
+On certain versions of Windows, such as Windows Server, Microsoft Defender Antivirus might have been uninstalled or disabled when your McAfee solution was installed. This is because Microsoft Defender Antivirus does not enter passive or disabled mode when you install a third-party antivirus product, such as McAfee. (To learn more about this, see [Microsoft Defender Antivirus compatibility](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/microsoft-defender-antivirus-compatibility).)
+
+This step of the migration process includes the following tasks:
+- [Setting DisableAntiSpyware to false on Windows Server](#set-disableantispyware-to-false-on-windows-server)
+- [Reinstalling Microsoft Defender Antivirus on Windows Server](#reinstall-microsoft-defender-antivirus-on-windows-server);
+- [Setting Microsoft Defender Antivirus to passive mode on Windows Server](#set-microsoft-defender-antivirus-to-passive-mode-on-windows-server)
+- [Enabling Microsoft Defender Antivirus on your Windows client devices](#enable-microsoft-defender-antivirus-on-your-windows-client-devices); and
+- [Confirming that Microsoft Defender Antivirus is set to passive mode](#confirm-that-microsoft-defender-antivirus-is-in-passive-mode).
+
+### Set DisableAntiSpyware to false on Windows Server
+
+The [DisableAntiSpyware](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/customize/desktop/unattend/security-malware-windows-defender-disableantispyware) registry key was used in the past to disable Microsoft Defender Antivirus, and deploy another antivirus product, such as McAfee. In general, you should not have this registry key on your Windows devices and endpoints; however, if you do have `DisableAntiSpyware` configured, here's how to set its value to false:
+
+1. On your Windows Server device, open Registry Editor.
+
+2. Navigate to `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows Defender`.
+
+3. In that folder, look for a DWORD entry called **DisableAntiSpyware**.
+
+ - If you do not see that entry, you're all set.
+
+ - If you do see **DisableAntiSpyware**, proceed to step 4.
+
+4. Right-click the DisableAntiSpyware DWORD, and then choose **Modify**.
+
+5. Set the value to `0`. (This sets the registry key's value to *false*.)
+
+> [!TIP]
+> To learn more about this registry key, see [DisableAntiSpyware](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/customize/desktop/unattend/security-malware-windows-defender-disableantispyware).
+
+### Reinstall Microsoft Defender Antivirus on Windows Server
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The following procedure applies only to endpoints or devices that are running the following versions of Windows:
+> - Windows Server 2019
+> - Windows Server, version 1803 (core-only mode)
+> - Windows Server 2016
+
+1. As a local administrator on the endpoint or device, open Windows PowerShell.
+
+2. Run the following PowerShell cmdlets:
+
+ `Dism /online /Get-FeatureInfo /FeatureName:Windows-Defender-Features`
+
+ `Dism /online /Get-FeatureInfo /FeatureName:Windows-Defender`
+
+3. To verify Microsoft Defender Antivirus is running, use the following PowerShell cmdlet:
+
+ `Get-Service -Name windefend`
+
+> [!TIP]
+> Need help? See [Microsoft Defender Antivirus on Windows Server 2016 and 2019](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/microsoft-defender-antivirus-on-windows-server-2016).
+
+### Set Microsoft Defender Antivirus to passive mode on Windows Server
+
+Because your organization is still using your existing endpoint protection solution, you must set Microsoft Defender Antivirus to passive mode. That way, your existing solution and Microsoft Defender Antivirus can run side by side until you have finished onboarding to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.
+
+1. Open Registry Editor, and then navigate to
+ `Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Windows Advanced Threat Protection`.
+
+2. Edit (or create) a DWORD entry called **ForceDefenderPassiveMode**, and specify the following settings:
+
+ - Set the DWORD's value to **1**.
+
+ - Under **Base**, select **Hexadecimal**.
+
+> [!NOTE]

+
+### Enable Microsoft Defender Antivirus on your Windows client devices
+
+Because your organization has been using a non-Microsoft antivirus solution, Microsoft Defender Antivirus is most likely disabled on your organization's Windows devices. This step of the migration process involves enabling Microsoft Defender Antivirus.
+
+To enable Microsoft Defender Antivirus, we recommend using Intune. However, you can any of the methods that are listed in the following table:
+
+|Method |What to do |
+|---------|---------|
+|[Intune](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/intune/fundamentals/tutorial-walkthrough-endpoint-manager)
**NOTE**: Intune is now Microsoft Endpoint Manager. |1. Go to the [Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2109431) and sign in.
2. Select **Devices** > **Configuration profiles**, and then select the profile type you want to configure.
If you haven't yet created a **Device restrictions** profile type, or if you want to create a new one, see [Configure device restriction settings in Microsoft Intune](https://docs.microsoft.com/intune/device-restrictions-configure).
3. Select **Properties**, and then select **Configuration settings: Edit**.
4. Expand **Microsoft Defender Antivirus**.
5. Enable **Cloud-delivered protection**.
6. In the **Prompt users before sample submission** dropdown, select **Send all samples automatically**.
7. In the **Detect potentially unwanted applications** dropdown, select **Enable** or **Audit**.
8. Select **Review + save**, and then choose **Save**.
For more information about Intune device profiles, including how to create and configure their settings, see [What are Microsoft Intune device profiles?](https://docs.microsoft.com/intune/device-profiles).|
+|Control Panel in Windows |Follow the guidance here: [Turn on Microsoft Defender Antivirus](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/intune/user-help/turn-on-defender-windows).
**NOTE**: You might see *Windows Defender Antivirus* instead of *Microsoft Defender Antivirus* in some versions of Windows. |
+|[Advanced Group Policy Management](https://docs.microsoft.com/microsoft-desktop-optimization-pack/agpm/)
or
[Group Policy Management Console](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/use-group-policy-microsoft-defender-antivirus) |1. Go to `Computer configuration > Administrative templates > Windows components > Microsoft Defender Antivirus`.
2. Look for a policy called **Turn off Microsoft Defender Antivirus**.
3. Choose **Edit policy setting**, and make sure that policy is disabled. This enables Microsoft Defender Antivirus.
**NOTE**: You might see *Windows Defender Antivirus* instead of *Microsoft Defender Antivirus* in some versions of Windows. |
+
+### Confirm that Microsoft Defender Antivirus is in passive mode
+
+Microsoft Defender Antivirus can run alongside your existing endpoint protection solution if you set Microsoft Defender Antivirus to passive mode. You can use either Command Prompt or PowerShell to perform this task, as described in the following table:
+
+|Method |What to do |
+|---------|---------|
+|Command Prompt |1. On a Windows device, open Command Prompt as an administrator.
2. Type `sc query windefend`, and then press Enter.
3. Review the results to confirm that Microsoft Defender Antivirus is running in passive mode. |
+|PowerShell |1. On a Windows device, open Windows PowerShell as an administrator.
2. Run the [Get-MpComputerStatus](https://docs.microsoft.com/powershell/module/defender/Get-MpComputerStatus) cmdlet.
3. In the list of results, look for **AntivirusEnabled: True**. |
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> You might see *Windows Defender Antivirus* instead of *Microsoft Defender Antivirus* in some versions of Windows.
+
+## Get updates for Microsoft Defender Antivirus
+
+Keeping Microsoft Defender Antivirus up to date is critical to assure your devices have the latest technology and features needed to protect against new malware and attack techniques, even if Microsoft Defender Antivirus is running in [passive mode](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/microsoft-defender-antivirus-compatibility).
+
+There are two types of updates related to keeping Microsoft Defender Antivirus up to date:
+- Security intelligence updates
+- Product updates
+
+To get your updates, follow the guidance in [Manage Microsoft Defender Antivirus updates and apply baselines](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/manage-updates-baselines-microsoft-defender-antivirus).
+
+## Add Microsoft Defender for Endpoint to the exclusion list for your existing solution
+
+This step of the setup process involves adding Microsoft Defender for Endpoint to the exclusion list for your existing endpoint protection solution and any other security products your organization is using.
+
+> [!TIP]
+> To get help configuring exclusions, refer to your solution provider's documentation.
+
+The specific exclusions to configure depend on which version of Windows your endpoints or devices are running, and are listed in the following table:
+
+|OS |Exclusions |
+|--|--|
+|- Windows 10, [version 1803](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/release-information/status-windows-10-1803) or later (See [Windows 10 release information](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/release-information))
- Windows 10, version 1703 or [1709](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/release-information/status-windows-10-1709) with [KB4493441](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4493441) installed

+
+## Add your existing solution to the exclusion list for Microsoft Defender Antivirus
+
+During this step of the setup process, you add your existing solution to the Microsoft Defender Antivirus exclusion list.
+
+When you add [exclusions to Microsoft Defender Antivirus scans](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/configure-exclusions-microsoft-defender-antivirus), you should add path and process exclusions. Keep the following points in mind:
+- Path exclusions exclude specific files and whatever those files access.
+- Process exclusions exclude whatever a process touches, but does not exclude the process itself.
+- If you list each executable (.exe) as both a path exclusion and a process exclusion, the process and whatever it touches are excluded.
+- List your process exclusions using their full path and not by their name only. (The name-only method is less secure.)
+
+You can choose from several methods to add your exclusions to Microsoft Defender Antivirus, as listed in the following table:
+
+|Method | What to do|

+### Find a file hash using CMPivot
+
+CMPivot is an in-console utility for Configuration Manager. CMPivot provides access to the real-time state of devices in your environment. It immediately runs a query on all currently connected devices in the target collection and returns the results. To learn more, see [CMPivot overview](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/core/servers/manage/cmpivot-overview).
+
+To use CMPivot to get your file hash, follow these steps:
+
+1. Review the [prerequisites](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/core/servers/manage/cmpivot#prerequisites).
+
+2. [Start CMPivot](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/core/servers/manage/cmpivot#start-cmpivot).
+
+3. Connect to Configuration Manager (`SCCM_ServerName.DomainName.com`).
+
+4. Select the **Query** tab.
+
+5. In the **Device Collection** list, and choose **All Systems (default)**.
+
+6. In the query box, type the following query:
+
+```kusto
+File(c:\\windows\\notepad.exe)
+| project Hash
+```
+> [!NOTE]
+> In the query above, replace *notepad.exe* with the your third-party security product process name.
+
+## Set up your device groups, device collections, and organizational units
+
+| Collection type | What to do |
+|--|--|
+|[Device groups](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/machine-groups) (formerly called machine groups) enable your security operations team to configure security capabilities, such as automated investigation and remediation.
Device groups are also useful for assigning access to those devices so that your security operations team can take remediation actions if needed.
Device groups are created in the Microsoft Defender Security Center. |1. Go to the Microsoft Defender Security Center ([https://aka.ms/MDATPportal](https://aka.ms/MDATPportal)).
2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose **Settings** > **Permissions** > **Device groups**.
3. Choose **+ Add device group**.
4. Specify a name and description for the device group.
5. In the **Automation level** list, select an option. (We recommend **Full - remediate threats automatically**.) To learn more about the various automation levels, see [How threats are remediated](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/automated-investigations#how-threats-are-remediated).
6. Specify conditions for a matching rule to determine which devices belong to the device group. For example, you can choose a domain, OS versions, or even use [device tags](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/machine-tags).
7. On the **User access** tab, specify roles that should have access to the devices that are included in the device group.
8. Choose **Done**. |
+|[Device collections](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/core/clients/manage/collections/introduction-to-collections) enable your security operations team to manage applications, deploy compliance settings, or install software updates on the devices in your organization.
Device collections are created by using [Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/). |Follow the steps in [Create a collection](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/core/clients/manage/collections/create-collections#bkmk_create). |
+|[Organizational units](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory-domain-services/create-ou) enable you to logically group objects such as user accounts, service accounts, or computer accounts. You can then assign administrators to specific organizational units, and apply group policy to enforce targeted configuration settings.
Organizational units are defined in [Azure Active Directory Domain Services](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory-domain-services). | Follow the steps in [Create an Organizational Unit in an Azure Active Directory Domain Services managed domain](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory-domain-services/create-ou). |
+
+## Configure antimalware policies and real-time protection
+
+Using Configuration Manager and your device collection(s), configure your antimalware policies.
+
+- See [Create and deploy antimalware policies for Endpoint Protection in Configuration Manager](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/protect/deploy-use/endpoint-antimalware-policies).
+
+- While you create and configure your antimalware policies, make sure to review the [real-time protection settings](https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/configmgr/protect/deploy-use/endpoint-antimalware-policies#real-time-protection-settings) and [enable block at first sight](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/configure-block-at-first-sight-microsoft-defender-antivirus).
+
+> [!TIP]
+> You can deploy the policies before your organization's devices on onboarded.

Web content filtering is part of [Web protection](web-protection-overview.md) capabilities in Microsoft Defender ATP. It enables your organization to track and regulate access to websites based on their content categories. Many of these websites, while not malicious, might be problematic because of compliance regulations, bandwidth usage, or other concerns.
-You can configure policies across your device groups to block certain categories, effectively preventing users within specified device groups from accessing URLs that are associated with the category. For any category that's not blocked, they are automatically audited. That means your users will be able to access the URLs without disruption, and you will continue to gather access statistics to help create a more custom policy decision. If an element on the page you’re viewing is making calls to a resource that is blocked, your users will see a block notification.

### Implementation considerations
Implementation of this policy setting is dependent on your operational environment. You should consider threat vectors, deployed operating systems, and deployed apps, for example:
+
- The likelihood of an account theft or a DoS attack is based on the security design for your systems and environment. You should set the account lockout threshold in consideration of the known and perceived risk of those threats.
+
- When negotiating encryption types between clients, servers, and domain controllers, the Kerberos protocol can automatically retry account sign-in attempts that count toward the threshold limits that you set in this policy setting. In environments where different versions of the operating system are deployed, encryption type negotiation increases.
+
- Not all apps that are used in your environment effectively manage how many times a user can attempt to sign-in. For instance, if a connection drops repeatedly when a user is running the app, all subsequent failed sign-in attempts count toward the account lockout threshold.

+> A lockout threshold policy will apply to both local member computer users and domain users, in order to allow mitigation of issues as described under "Vulnerability". The built-in Administrator account, however, whilst a highly privileged account, has a different risk profile and is excluded from this policy. This ensures there is no scenario where an administrator cannot sign in to remediate an issue. As an administrator, there are additional mitigation strategies available, such as a strong password. See also [Appendix D: Securing Built-In Administrator Accounts in Active Directory](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-server/identity/ad-ds/plan/security-best-practices/appendix-d--securing-built-in-administrator-accounts-in-active-directory).

### Vulnerability
Brute force password attacks can use automated methods to try millions of password combinations for any user account. The effectiveness of such attacks can be almost eliminated if you limit the number of failed sign-in attempts that can be performed.
However, a DoS attack could be performed on a domain that has an account lockout threshold configured. An attacker could programmatically attempt a series of password attacks against all users in the organization. If the number of attempts is greater than the account lockout threshold, the attacker might be able to lock every account without needing any special privileges or being authenticated in the network.

+> [!NOTE]

+
### Countermeasure
Because vulnerabilities can exist when this value is configured and when it is not configured, two distinct countermeasures are defined. Organizations should weigh the choice between the two, based on their identified threats and the risks that they want to mitigate. The two countermeasure options are:
+
- Configure the **Account lockout threshold** setting to 0. This configuration ensures that accounts will not be locked, and it will prevent a DoS attack that intentionally attempts to lock accounts. This configuration also helps reduce Help Desk calls because users cannot accidentally lock themselves out of their accounts. Because it does not prevent a brute force attack, this configuration should be chosen only if both of the following criteria are explicitly met:
+
- The password policy setting requires all users to have complex passwords of 8 or more characters.
- A robust audit mechanism is in place to alert administrators when a series of failed sign-ins occur in the environment.
+
- Configure the **Account lockout threshold** policy setting to a sufficiently high value to provide users with the ability to accidentally mistype their password several times before the account is locked, but ensure that a brute force password attack still locks the account.
[Windows security baselines](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-security-baselines) recommend configuring a threshold of 10 invalid sign-in attempts, which prevents accidental account lockouts and reduces the number of Help Desk calls, but does not prevent a DoS attack.
+
Using this type of policy must be accompanied by a process to unlock locked accounts. It must be possible to implement this policy whenever it is needed to help mitigate massive lockouts caused by an attack on your systems.

-# WannaCrypt ransomware worm targets out-of-date systems
-
-
-On May 12, 2017 we detected a new ransomware that spreads like a worm by leveraging vulnerabilities that have been previously fixed. While security updates are automatically applied in most computers, some users and enterprises may delay deployment of patches. Unfortunately, the ransomware, known as [WannaCrypt](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Ransom:Win32/WannaCrypt), appears to have affected computers that have not applied the patch for these vulnerabilities. While the attack is unfolding, we remind users to install [MS17-010](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms17-010.aspx) if they have not already done so.
-
-Microsoft antimalware diagnostic data immediately picked up signs of this campaign. Our expert systems gave us visibility and context into this new attack as it happened, allowing [Microsoft Defender Antivirus](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/keep-secure/windows-defender-in-windows-10) to deliver real-time defense. Through automated analysis, machine learning, and predictive modeling, we were able to rapidly protect against this malware.
-
-In this blog, we provide an early analysis of the end-to-end ransomware attack. Please note this threat is still under investigation. The attack is still active, and there is a possibility that the attacker will attempt to react to our detection response.
-
-## Attack vector
-
-Ransomware threats do not typically spread rapidly. Threats like WannaCrypt (also known as WannaCry, WanaCrypt0r, WCrypt, or WCRY) usually leverage social engineering or email as primary attack vector, relying on users downloading and executing a malicious payload. However, in this unique case, the ransomware perpetrators used publicly available exploit code for the patched SMB 'EternalBlue' vulnerability, [CVE-2017-0145](http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2017-0145), which can be triggered by sending a specially crafted packet to a targeted SMBv1 server. This vulnerability was fixed in security bulletin [MS17-010](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms17-010.aspx), which was released on March 14, 2017.
-
-WannaCrypt's spreading mechanism is borrowed from [well-known](https://packetstormsecurity.com/files/142464/MS17-010-SMBv1-SrvOs2FeaToNt-OOB-Remote-Code-Execution.html) [public SMB exploits](https://github.com/RiskSense-Ops/MS17-010), which armed this regular ransomware with worm-like functionalities, creating an entry vector for machines still unpatched even after the fix had become available.
-
-The exploit code used by WannaCrypt was designed to work only against unpatched Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 (or earlier OS) systems, so Windows 10 PCs are not affected by this attack.
-
-We haven't found evidence of the exact initial entry vector used by this threat, but there are two scenarios that we believe are highly possible explanations for the spread of this ransomware:
-
-- Arrival through social engineering emails designed to trick users to run the malware and activate the worm-spreading functionality with the SMB exploit
-- Infection through SMB exploit when an unpatched computer is addressable from other infected machines
-
-## Dropper
-
-The threat arrives as a dropper Trojan that has the following two components:
-
-1. A component that attempts to exploit the SMB CVE-2017-0145 vulnerability in other computers
-2. The ransomware known as WannaCrypt
-
-The dropper tries to connect the following domains using the API `InternetOpenUrlA()`:
-
-- www[.]iuqerfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea[.]com
-- www[.]ifferfsodp9ifjaposdfjhgosurijfaewrwergwea[.]com
-
-If connection to the domains is successful, the dropper does not infect the system further with ransomware or try to exploit other systems to spread; it simply stops execution. However, if the connection fails, the threat proceeds to drop the ransomware and creates a service on the system.
-
-In other words, unlike in most malware infections, **IT Administrators should NOT block these domains**. Note that the malware is not proxy-aware, so a local DNS record may be required. This does not need to point to the Internet, but can resolve to any accessible server which will accept connections on TCP 80.
-
-
-
-The threat creates a service named *mssecsvc2.0*, whose function is to exploit the SMB vulnerability in other computers accessible from the infected system:
-```
-Service Name: mssecsvc2.0
-Service Description: (Microsoft Security Center (2.0) Service)
-Service Parameters: '-m security'
-```
-
- 
-
-## WannaCrypt ransomware
-
-The ransomware component is a dropper that contains a password-protected .zip archive in its resource section. The document encryption routine and the files in the .zip archive contain support tools, a decryption tool, and the ransom message. In the samples we analyzed, the password for the .zip archive is 'WNcry@2ol7'.
-
-When run, WannaCrypt creates the following registry keys:
-
-- *HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\\\ = '\\tasksche.exe'*
-- *HKLM\SOFTWARE\WanaCrypt0r\\wd = '\'*
-
-It changes the wallpaper to a ransom message by modifying the following registry key:
-
-- *HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\Wallpaper: '\\\@WanaDecryptor@.bmp'*
-
-It creates the following files in the malware's working directory:
-

-WannaCrypt may also create the following files:
-
-- *%SystemRoot%\tasksche.exe*
-- *%SystemDrive%\intel\\\\tasksche.exe*
-- *%ProgramData%\\\\tasksche.exe*
-
-It may create a randomly named service that has the following associated ImagePath: `cmd.exe /c '\tasksche.exe'`.
-
-It then searches the whole computer for any file with any of the following file name extensions: *.123, .jpeg , .rb , .602 , .jpg , .rtf , .doc , .js , .sch , .3dm , .jsp , .sh , .3ds , .key , .sldm , .3g2 , .lay , .sldm , .3gp , .lay6 , .sldx , .7z , .ldf , .slk , .accdb , .m3u , .sln , .aes , .m4u , .snt , .ai , .max , .sql , .ARC , .mdb , .sqlite3 , .asc , .mdf , .sqlitedb , .asf , .mid , .stc , .asm , .mkv , .std , .asp , .mml , .sti , .avi , .mov , .stw , .backup , .mp3 , .suo , .bak , .mp4 , .svg , .bat , .mpeg , .swf , .bmp , .mpg , .sxc , .brd , .msg , .sxd , .bz2 , .myd , .sxi , .c , .myi , .sxm , .cgm , .nef , .sxw , .class , .odb , .tar , .cmd , .odg , .tbk , .cpp , .odp , .tgz , .crt , .ods , .tif , .cs , .odt , .tiff , .csr , .onetoc2 , .txt , .csv , .ost , .uop , .db , .otg , .uot , .dbf , .otp , .vb , .dch , .ots , .vbs , .der' , .ott , .vcd , .dif , .p12 , .vdi , .dip , .PAQ , .vmdk , .djvu , .pas , .vmx , .docb , .pdf , .vob , .docm , .pem , .vsd , .docx , .pfx , .vsdx , .dot , .php , .wav , .dotm , .pl , .wb2 , .dotx , .png , .wk1 , .dwg , .pot , .wks , .edb , .potm , .wma , .eml , .potx , .wmv , .fla , .ppam , .xlc , .flv , .pps , .xlm , .frm , .ppsm , .xls , .gif , .ppsx , .xlsb , .gpg , .ppt , .xlsm , .gz , .pptm , .xlsx , .h , .pptx , .xlt , .hwp , .ps1 , .xltm , .ibd , .psd , .xltx , .iso , .pst , .xlw , .jar , .rar , .zip , .java , .raw.*
-
-WannaCrypt encrypts all files it finds and renames them by appending *.WNCRY* to the file name. For example, if a file is named *picture.jpg*, the ransomware encrypts and renames the file to *picture.jpg.WNCRY*.
-
-This ransomware also creates the file @Please_Read_Me@.txt in every folder where files are encrypted. The file contains the same ransom message shown in the replaced wallpaper image (see screenshot below).
-
-After completing the encryption process, the malware deletes the volume shadow copies by running the following command:
-`cmd.exe /c vssadmin delete shadows /all /quiet & wmic shadowcopy delete & bcdedit /set {default} bootstatuspolicy ignoreallfailures & bcdedit /set {default} recoveryenabled no & wbadmin delete catalog -quiet`
-
-It then replaces the desktop background image with the following message:
-
-
-
-It also runs an executable showing a ransom note which indicates a $300 ransom in Bitcoins as well as a timer:
-
- 
-
-The text is localized into the following languages: Bulgarian, Chinese (simplified), Chinese (traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, and Vietnamese.
-
-The ransomware also demonstrates the decryption capability by allowing the user to decrypt a few random files, free of charge. It then quickly reminds the user to pay the ransom to decrypt all the remaining files.
-
- 
-
-## Spreading capability
-
-The worm functionality attempts to infect unpatched Windows machines in the local network. At the same time, it also executes massive scanning on Internet IP addresses to find and infect other vulnerable computers. This activity results in large SMB traffic from the infected host, which can be observed by SecOps personnel, as shown below.
-
-
-
-The Internet scanning routine randomly generates octets to form the IPv4 address. The malware then targets that IP to attempt to exploit CVE-2017-0145. The threat avoids infecting the IPv4 address if the randomly generated value for first octet is 127 or if the value is equal to or greater than 224, in order to skip local loopback interfaces. Once a vulnerable machine is found and infected, it becomes the next hop to infect other machines. The vicious infection cycle continues as the scanning routing discovers unpatched computers.
-
-When it successfully infects a vulnerable computer, the malware runs kernel-level shellcode that seems to have been copied from the public backdoor known as DOUBLEPULSAR, but with certain adjustments to drop and execute the ransomware dropper payload, both for x86 and x64 systems.

-## Protection against the WannaCrypt attack
-
-To get the latest protection from Microsoft, upgrade to [Windows 10](https://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-10-upgrade). Keeping your computers [up-to-date](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/mmpc/help/updatefaqs.aspx) gives you the benefits of the latest features and proactive mitigations built into the latest versions of Windows.
-
-We recommend customers that have not yet installed the security update [MS17-010](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms17-010.aspx) do so as soon as possible. Until you can apply the patch, we also recommend two possible workarounds to reduce the attack surface:
-
-- Disable SMBv1 with the steps documented at [Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 2696547](https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2696547) and as [recommended previously](https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/filecab/2016/09/16/stop-using-smb1/)
-- Consider adding a rule on your router or firewall to block incoming SMB traffic on port 445
-
-[Microsoft Defender Antivirus](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/keep-secure/windows-defender-in-windows-10) detects this threat as [Ransom:Win32/WannaCrypt](https://www.microsoft.com/security/portal/threat/encyclopedia/Entry.aspx?Name=Ransom:Win32/WannaCrypt) as of the *1.243.297.0* update. Microsoft Defender Antivirus uses cloud-based protection, helping to protect you from the latest threats.
-
-For enterprises, use [Device Guard](https://technet.microsoft.com/itpro/windows/keep-secure/device-guard-deployment-guide) to lock down devices and provide kernel-level virtualization-based security, allowing only trusted applications to run, effectively preventing malware from running.
-
-Use [Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection](https://blogs.office.com/2015/04/08/introducing-exchange-online-advanced-threat-protection/), which has machine learning capability that blocks dangerous email threats, such as the emails carrying ransomware.
-

## Windows Defender Application Control
-WDAC was introduced with Windows 10 and allows organizations to control what drivers and applications are allowed to run on their Windows 10 clients. WDAC was designed as a security feature under the [servicing criteria](https://www.microsoft.com/msrc/windows-security-servicing-criteria) defined by the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC).

WDAC was designed as a security feature under the [servicing criteria](https://www.microsoft.com/msrc/windows-security-servicing-criteria) defined by the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC).
WDAC policies apply to the managed computer as a whole and affects all users of the device. WDAC rules can be defined based on:
-- Attributes of the codesigning certificate(s) used to sign an app and its binaries;
-- Attributes of the app's binaries that come from the signed metadata for the files, such as Original Filename and version, or the hash of the file;
-- The reputation of the app as determined by Microsoft's Intelligent Security Graph;
-- The identity of the process that initiated the installation of the app and its binaries (managed installer);
-- The path from which the app or file is launched (beginning with Windows 10 version 1903);
-- The process that launched the app or binary.

+AppLocker policies can only be configured on and applied to devices that are running on the supported versions and editions of the Windows operating system. For more info, see [Requirements to Use AppLocker](applocker/requirements-to-use-applocker.md).
AppLocker policies can be deployed using Group Policy or MDM.
## Choose when to use WDAC or AppLocker
-Although either AppLocker or WDAC can be used to control application execution on Windows 10 clients, the following factors can help you decide when to use each of the technologies.
+Generally, it is recommended that customers who are able to implement application control using WDAC rather than AppLocker do so. WDAC is undergoing continual improvements and will be getting added support from Microsoft management platforms. Although AppLocker will continue to receive security fixes, it will not undergo new feature improvements.
-### WDAC is best when:
-
-- You are adopting application control primarily for security reasons.
-- Your application control policy can be applied to all users on the managed computers.
-- All of the devices you wish to manage are running Windows 10.
-
-### AppLocker is best when:
+In some cases, however, AppLocker may be the more appropriate technology for your organization. AppLocker is best when:
- You have a mixed Windows operating system (OS) environment and need to apply the same policy controls to Windows 10 and earlier versions of the OS.
-- You need to apply different policies for different users or groups on a shared computer.
-- You are using application control to help users avoid running unapproved software, but you do not require a solution designed as a security feature.
-- You do not wish to enforce application control on application files such as DLLs or drivers.
+- You need to apply different policies for different users or groups on shared computers.
+- You do not want to enforce application control on application files such as DLLs or drivers.
-## When to use both WDAC and AppLocker together
-
-AppLocker can also be deployed as a complement to WDAC to add user- or group-specific rules for shared device scenarios where its important to prevent some users from running specific apps.
-As a best practice, you should enforce WDAC at the most restrictive level possible for your organization, and then you can use AppLocker to fine-tune the restrictions to an even lower level.

+# Best practices for configuring Windows Defender Firewall
+
+**Applies to**
+
+- Windows operating systems including Windows 10
+
+- Windows Server Operating Systems
+
+Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security provides host-based, two-way
+network traffic filtering and blocks unauthorized network traffic flowing into
+or out of the local device. Configuring your Windows Firewall based on the
+following best practices can help you optimize protection for devices in your
+network. These recommendations cover a wide range of deployments including home
+networks and enterprise desktop/server systems.
+
+To open Windows Firewall, go to the **Start** menu, select **Run**,
+type **WF.msc**, and then select **OK**. See also [Open Windows Firewall](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/open-windows-firewall-with-advanced-security).
+
+## Keep default settings
+
+When you open the Windows Defender Firewall for the first time, you can see the default settings applicable to the local computer. The Overview panel displays security settings for each type of network to which the device can connect.
+
+
+
+*Figure 1: Windows Defender Firewall*
+
+1. **Domain profile**: Used for networks where there is a system of account authentication against a domain controller (DC), such as an Azure Active Directory DC
+
+2. **Private profile**: Designed for and best used
+ in private networks such as a home network
+
+3. **Public profile**: Designed with higher security in mind
+ for public networks like Wi-Fi hotspots, coffee shops, airports, hotels, or stores
+
+View detailed settings for each profile by right-clicking the top-level **Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security** node in the left pane and then selecting **Properties**.
+
+Maintain the default settings in Windows Defender
+Firewall whenever possible. These settings have been designed to secure your device for use in most network scenarios. One key example is the default Block behavior for Inbound connections.
+
+
+
+*Figure 2: Default inbound/outbound settings*
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> To maintain maximum security, do not change the default Block setting for inbound connections.
+
+For more on configuring basic firewall settings, see [Turn on Windows Firewall and Configure Default Behavior](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/turn-on-windows-firewall-and-configure-default-behavior) and [Checklist: Configuring Basic Firewall Settings](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/checklist-configuring-basic-firewall-settings).
+
+## Understand rule precedence for inbound rules
+
+In many cases, a next step for administrators will be to customize these profiles using rules (sometimes called filters) so that they can work with user apps or other types of software. For example, an administrator or user may choose to add a rule to accommodate a program, open a port or protocol, or allow a predefined type of traffic.
+
+This can be accomplished by right-clicking either **Inbound Rules** or **Outbound Rules**, and selecting **New Rule**. The interface for adding a new rule looks like this:
+
+
+
+*Figure 3: Rule Creation Wizard*
+
+> [!NOTE]
+>This article does not cover step-by-step rule
+configuration. See the [Windows Firewall with Advanced Security Deployment
+Guide](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/windows-firewall-with-advanced-security-deployment-guide)
+for general guidance on policy creation.
+
+In many cases, allowing specific types of inbound traffic will be required for
+applications to function in the network. Administrators should keep the following rule precedence behaviors in mind when
+allowing these inbound exceptions.
+
+1. Explicitly defined allow rules will take precedence over the default block setting.
+
+2. Explicit block rules will take precedence over any conflicting allow rules.
+
+3. More specific rules will take precedence over less specific rules, except in the case of explicit block rules as mentioned in 2. (For example, if the parameters of rule 1 includes an IP address range, while the parameters of rule 2 include a single IP host address, rule 2 will take precedence.)
+
+Because of 1 and 2, it is important that, when designing a set of policies, you make sure that there are no other explicit block rules in place that could inadvertently overlap, thus preventing the traffic flow you wish to allow.
+
+A general security best practice when creating inbound rules is to be as specific as possible. However, when new rules must be made that use ports or IP addresses, consider using consecutive ranges or subnets instead of individual addresses or ports where possible. This avoids creation of multiple filters under the hood, reduces complexity, and helps to avoid performance degradation.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> Windows Defender Firewall does not support traditional weighted, administrator-assigned rule ordering. An effective policy set with expected behaviors can be created by keeping in mind the few, consistent, and logical rule behaviors described above.
+
+## Create rules for new applications before first launch
+
+### Inbound allow rules
+
+When first installed, networked applications and services issue a listen call specifying the protocol/port information required for them to function properly. As there is a default block action in Windows Defender Firewall, it is necessary to create inbound exception rules to allow this traffic. It is common for the app or the app installer itself to add this firewall rule. Otherwise, the user (or firewall admin on behalf of the user) needs to manually create a rule.
+
+If there are no active application or administrator-defined allow rule(s), a dialog box will prompt the user to either allow or block an application's packets the first time the app is launched or tries to communicate in the network.
+
+- If the user has admin permissions, they will be prompted. If they respond *No* or cancel the prompt, block rules will be created. Two rules are typically created, one each for TCP and UDP traffic.
+
+- If the user is not a local admin, they will not be prompted. In most cases, block rules will be created.
+
+In either of the scenarios above, once these rules are added they must be deleted in order to generate the prompt again. If not, the traffic will continue to be blocked.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The firewall's default settings are designed for security. Allowing all inbound connections by default introduces the network to various threats. Therefore, creating exceptions for inbound connections from third-party software should be determined by trusted app developers, the user, or the admin on behalf of the user.
+
+
+### Known issues with automatic rule creation
+
+When designing a set of firewall policies for your network, it is a best practice to configure allow rules for any networked applications deployed on the host. Having these rules in place before the user first launches the application will help ensure a seamless experience.
+
+The absence of these staged rules does not necessarily mean that in the end an application will be unable to communicate on the network. However, the behaviors involved in the automatic creation of application rules at runtime requires user interaction.
+
+To determine why some applications are blocked from communicating in the network, check for the following:
+
+1. A user with sufficient privileges receives a query notification advising them that the application needs to make a change to the firewall policy. Not fully understanding the prompt, the user cancels or dismisses the prompt.
+
+2. A user lacks sufficient privileges and is therefore not prompted to allow the application to make the appropriate policy changes.
+
+3. Local Policy Merge is disabled, preventing the application or network service from creating local rules.
+
+
+
+*Figure 4: Dialog box to allow access*
+
+See also [Checklist: Creating Inbound Firewall Rules](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/checklist-creating-inbound-firewall-rules).
+
+## Establish local policy merge and application rules
+
+Firewall rules can be deployed:
+1. Locally using the Firewall snap-in (**WF.msc**)
+2. Locally using PowerShell
+3. Remotely using Group Policy if the device is a member of an Active Directory Name, System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM), or Intune (using workplace join)
+
+Rule merging settings control how rules from different policy sources can be combined. Administrators can configure different merge behaviors for Domain, Private, and Public profiles.
+
+The rule merging settings either allow or prevent local admins from creating their own firewall rules in addition to those obtained from Group Policy.
+
+
+
+*Figure 5: Rule merging setting*
+
+> [!TIP]
+> In the firewall [configuration service provider](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/firewall-csp), the
+equivalent setting is *AllowLocalPolicyMerge*. This setting can be found under each respective profile node, *DomainProfile*, *PrivateProfile*, and *PublicProfile*.
+
+If merging of local policies is disabled, centralized deployment of rules is required for any app that needs inbound connectivity.
+
+Admins may disable *LocalPolicyMerge* in high security environments to maintain tighter control over endpoints. This can impact some apps and services that automatically generate a local firewall policy upon installation as discussed above. For these types of apps and services to work, admins should push rules centrally via group policy (GP), Mobile Device
+Management (MDM), or both (for hybrid or co-management environments).
+
+[Firewall CSP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/firewall-csp) and [Policy CSP](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider) also have settings that can affect rule merging.
+
+As a best practice, it is important to list and log such apps, including the network ports used for communications. Typically, you can find what ports must be open for a given service on the app's website. For more complex or customer application deployments, a more thorough analysis may be needed using network packet capture tools.
+
+In general, to maintain maximum security, admins should only push firewall exceptions for apps and services determined to serve legitimate purposes.
+
+
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> The use of wildcard patterns, such as *C:\*\\teams.exe* is not
+supported in application rules. We currently only support rules created using the full path to the application(s).
+
+## Know how to use "shields up" mode for active attacks
+
+An important firewall feature you can use to mitigate damage during an active attack is the "shields up" mode. It is an informal term referring to an easy method a firewall administrator can use to temporarily increase security in the face of an active attack.
+
+Shields up can be achieved by checking **Block all
+incoming connections, including those in the list of allowed apps** setting found in either the Windows Settings app or the legacy file *firewall.cpl*.
+
+
+
+*Figure 6: Windows settings App/Windows Security/Firewall Protection/Network Type*
+
+
+
+*Figure 7: Legacy firewall.cpl*
+
+By default, the Windows Defender Firewall will block everything unless there is an exception rule created. This setting overrides the exceptions.
+
+For example, the Remote Desktop feature automatically creates firewall rules when enabled. However, if there is an active exploit using multiple ports and services on a host, you can, instead of disabling individual rules, use the shields up mode to block all inbound connections, overriding previous exceptions, including the rules for Remote Desktop. The Remote Desktop rules remain intact but remote access will not work as long as shields up is activated.
+
+Once the emergency is over, uncheck the setting to restore regular network traffic.
+
+## Create outbound rules
+
+What follows are a few general guidelines for configuring outbound rules.
+
+- The default configuration of Blocked for Outbound rules can be
+ considered for certain highly secure environments. However, the Inbound rule configuration should never be changed in a way that Allows traffic by default.
+
+- It is recommended to Allow Outbound by default for most deployments for the sake of simplification around app deployments, unless the enterprise prefers tight security controls over ease-of-use.
+
+- In high security environments, an inventory of all enterprise-spanning apps must be taken and logged by the administrator or administrators. Records must include whether an app used requires network connectivity. Administrators will need to create new rules specific to each app that needs network connectivity and push those rules centrally, via group policy (GP), Mobile Device Management (MDM), or both (for hybrid or co-management environments).
+
+For tasks related to creating outbound rules, see [Checklist: Creating Outbound Firewall Rules](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-firewall/checklist-creating-outbound-firewall-rules).
+
+## Document your changes
+
+When creating an inbound or outbound rule, you should specify details about the app itself, the port range used, and important notes like creation date. Rules must be well-documented for ease of review both by you and other admins. We highly encourage taking the time to make the work of reviewing your firewall rules at a later date easier. And *never* create unnecessary holes in your firewall.
