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).

- **Driver updates**: These are updates to drivers applicable to your devices. Driver updates are turned off by default in Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), but for cloud-based update methods, you can control whether they are installed or not.
- **Microsoft product updates:** These are updates for other Microsoft products, such as Office. You can enable or disable Microsoft updates by using policies controlled by various servicing tools.

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).

### Update WinRE
The script assumes that only a single edition is being updated, indicated by Index = 1 (Windows 10 Education Edition). Then the script mounts the image, saves Winre.wim to the working folder, and mounts it. It then applies servicing stack Dynamic Update, since its s are used for updating other s. Since the script is optionally adding Japanese, it adds the language pack to the image, and installs the Japanese versions of all optional packages already installed in Winre.wim. Then, it applies the Safe OS Dynamic Update package.

This script is similar to the one that updates WinRE, but instead it mounts Boot.wim, applies the packages with the latest cumulative update last, and saves. It repeats this for all images inside of Boot.wim, typically two images. It starts by applying the servicing stack Dynamic Update. Since the script is customizing this media with Japanese, it installs the language pack from the WinPE folder on the language pack ISO. Additionally, add font support and text to speech (TTS) support. Since the script is adding a new language, it rebuilds lang.ini, used to identify languages installed in the image. Finally, it cleans and exports Boot.wim, and copies it back to the new media.

To align with the new method of delivering feature updates and quality updates in Windows 10, Microsoft introduced the concept of servicing channels to allow customers to designate how frequently their individual devices are updated. For example, an organization may have test devices that the IT department can update with new features as soon as possible, and then specialized devices that require a longer feature update cycle to ensure continuity.
With that in mind, Windows 10 offers three servicing channels. The [Windows Insider Program](#windows-insider) provides organizations with the opportunity to test and provide feedback on features that will be shipped in the next feature update. The [Semi-Annual Channel](#semi-annual-channel) provides new functionality with twice-per-year feature update releases. Organizations can choose when to deploy updates from the Semi-Annual Channel. The [Long Term Servicing Channel](#long-term-servicing-channel), which is designed to be used only for specialized devices (which typically don't run Office) such as those that control medical equipment or ATM machines, receives new feature releases every two to three years. For details about the versions in each servicing channel, see [Windows 10 release information](https://technet.microsoft.com/windows/release-info.aspx).

## Get to know Windows as a Service (WaaS)
The Windows 10 operating system introduces a new way to build, deploy, and service Windows: Windows as a service. Microsoft has reimagined each part of the process, to simplify the lives of IT pros and maintain a consistent Windows 10 experience for its customers.
These improvements focus on maximizing customer involvement in Windows development, simplifying the deployment and servicing of Windows client computers, and leveling out the resources needed to deploy and maintain Windows over time.

- **The ability to specify what happens when data matches a rule, including whether employees can bypass enforcement.** For example, in Microsoft SharePoint and SharePoint Online, the Microsoft data loss prevention system lets you warn your employees that shared data includes sensitive info, and to share it anyway (with an optional audit log entry).
Unfortunately, data loss prevention systems have their own problems. For example, the more detailed the rule set, the more false positives are created, leading employees to believe that the rules slow down their work and need to be bypassed in order to remain productive, potentially leading to data being incorrectly blocked or improperly released. Another major problem is that data loss prevention systems must be widely implemented to be effective. For example, if your company uses a data loss prevention system for email, but not for file shares or document storage, you might find that your data leaks through the unprotected channels. But perhaps the biggest problem with data loss prevention systems is that it provides a jarring experience that interrupts the employees natural workflow by stopping some operations (such as sending a message with an attachment that the system tags as sensitive) while allowing others, often according to subtle rules that the employee doesnt see and cant understand.

### 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.

For example, if WIP management is set to **Block**, your employees can copy and paste from one protected app to another protected app, but not to personal apps. Imagine an HR person wants to copy a job description from a protected app to the internal career website, an enterprise-protected location, but goofs and tries to paste into a personal app instead. The paste action fails and a notification pops up, saying that the app couldnt paste because of a policy restriction. The HR person then correctly pastes to the career website without a problem.

All apps not on this list are stopped from accessing your enterprise data, depending on your WIP management-mode.

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.
Automated investigation uses various inspection algorithms and processes used by analysts to examine alerts and take immediate action to resolve breaches. These capabilities significantly reduce alert volume, allowing security operations to focus on more sophisticated threats and other high-value initiatives. The [Action center](auto-investigation-action-center.md) keeps track of all the investigations that were initiated automatically, along with details, such as investigation status, detection source, and any pending or completed actions.

## 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.

## How threats are remediated
Depending on how you set up the device groups and their level of automation, each automated investigation either requires user approval (default) or automatically remediates threats.

You can configure the following levels of automation:
|Automation level | Description|
|---|---|
|**Full - remediate threats automatically** | All remediation actions are performed automatically.<br/><br/>***This option is recommended** and is selected by default for Microsoft Defender ATP tenants that were created on or after August 16, 2020, and that have no device groups defined. <br/>If you do have a device group defined, you will also have a device group called **Ungrouped devices (default)**, which will be set to **Full - remediate threats automatically**.*|
|**Semi - require approval for core folders remediation** | An approval is required on files or executables that are in the operating system directories such as Windows folder and Program files folder. <br/><br/> Files or executables in all other folders are automatically remediated, if needed.|
|**Semi - require approval for non-temp folders remediation** | An approval is required on files or executables that are not in temporary folders. <br/><br/> Files or executables in temporary folders, such as the user's download folder or the user's temp folder, are automatically be remediated (if needed).|
|**Semi - require approval for any remediation** | An approval is needed for any remediation action. <br/><br/>*This option is selected by default for Microsoft Defender ATP tenants that were created before August 16, 2020, and that have no device groups defined. <br/>If you do have a device group defined, you will also have a device group called **Ungrouped devices (default)**, which will be set to **Semi - require approval for any remediation**.*|
|**No automated response** | Devices do not get any automated investigations run on them. <br/><br/>***This option is not recommended**, because it fully disables automated investigation and remediation capabilities, and reduces the security posture of your organization's devices.* |
|**Full - remediate threats automatically** | All remediation actions are performed automatically. Remediation actions that were taken can be viewed in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md), on the **History** tab.<br/><br/>***This option is recommended** and is selected by default for tenants that were created on or after August 16, 2020 with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, with no device groups defined yet.* <br/><br/>*If you do have a device group defined, you will also have a device group called **Ungrouped devices (default)**, which will be set to **Full - remediate threats automatically**.* |
|**Semi - require approval for core folders remediation** | Approval is required for remediation actions on files or executables that are in core folders. Pending actions can be viewed and approved in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md). <br/><br/>Remediation actions can be taken automatically on files or executables that are in other (non-core) folders. Core folders include operating system directories, such as the **Windows** (`\windows\*`). |
|**Semi - require approval for non-temp folders remediation** | Approval is required for remediation actions on files or executables that are not in temporary folders. Pending actions can be viewed and approved in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md).<br/><br/> Remediation actions can be taken automatically on files or executables that are in temporary folders.

|**No automated response** | Automated investigation does not run on your organization's devices. As a result, no remediation actions are taken or pending as a result of automated investigation. <br/><br/>***This option is not recommended**, because it reduces the security posture of your organization's devices.

### 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).
- Your level of automation is determined by your device group settings. To learn more, 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 for Endpoint tenant was created before August 16, 2020, then you have a default device group that is configured for semi-automatic remediation. In this case, some or all remediation actions for malicious entities require approval. Such actions are listed on 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 set your [device groups](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-automated-investigations-remediation#set-up-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 Microsoft Defender for Endpoint tenant was created on or after August 16, 2020, then you have a default device group that is configured for full automation. In this case, remediation actions are taken automatically for entities that are considered to be malicious. Such actions are listed 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).

## 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.

| Certificate-based isolation | A way to add devices that cannot use Kerberos V5 authentication to an isolated domain, by using an alternate authentication technique. Every device in the isolated domain and the devices that cannot use Kerberos V5 are provided with a device certificate that can be used to authenticate with each other. Certificate-based isolation requires a way to create and distribute an appropriate certificate (if you choose not to purchase one from a commercial certificate provider).|
| Domain isolation | A technique for helping protect the devices in an organization by requiring that the devices authenticate each other's identity before exchanging information, and refusing connection requests from devices that cannot authenticate. Domain isolation takes advantage of Active Directory domain membership and the Kerberos V5 authentication protocol available to all members of the domain. Also see &quot;Isolated domain&quot; in this table.|
| Encryption zone | A subset of the devices in an isolated domain that process sensitive data. Devices that are part of the encryption zone have all network traffic encrypted to prevent viewing by non-authorized users. Devices that are part of the encryption zone also typically are subject to the access control restrictions of server isolation.|
| Firewall rule | A rule in Windows Defender Firewall that contains a set of conditions used to determine whether a network packet is allowed to pass through the firewall.<br/>By default, the firewall rules in Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows 8, Windows 7, and Windows Vista block unsolicited inbound network traffic. Likewise, by default, all outbound network traffic is allowed. The firewall included in previous versions of Windows only filtered inbound network traffic. |
| Firewall rule | A rule in Windows Defender Firewall that contains a set of conditions used to determine whether a network packet is allowed to pass through the firewall.<br/>By default, the firewall rules in Windows Server 2016. Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, and Windows Vista block unsolicited inbound network traffic. Likewise, by default, all outbound network traffic is allowed. The firewall included in previous versions of Windows only filtered inbound network traffic. |
| Internet Protocol security (IPsec) | A set of industry-standard, cryptography-based protection services and protocols. IPsec protects all protocols in the TCP/IP protocol suite except Address Resolution Protocol (ARP).|
| IPsec policy | A collection of connection security rules that provide the required protection to network traffic entering and leaving the device. The protection includes authentication of both the sending and receiving device, integrity protection of the network traffic exchanged between them, and can include encryption.|
| Isolated domain | An Active Directory domain (or an Active Directory forest, or set of domains with two-way trust relationships) that has Group Policy settings applied to help protect its member devices by using IPsec connection security rules. Members of the isolated domain require authentication on all unsolicited inbound connections (with exceptions handled by the other zones).<br/>In this guide, the term *isolated domain* refers to the IPsec concept of a group of devices that can share authentication. The term *Active Directory domain* refers to the group of devices that share a security database by using Active Directory.|
