The Volume Activation Management Tool (VAMT) enables network administrators and other IT professionals to automate and centrally manage the Windows®, Microsoft® Office®, and select other Microsoft products volume and retail activation process. VAMT can manage volume activation using Multiple Activation Keys (MAKs) or the Windows Key Management Service (KMS). VAMT is a standard Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in and can be installed on any computer that has one of the following Windows operating systems: Windows® 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10,Windows Server 2008 R2, or Windows Server 2012.

## 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.

## Managing Key Management Service (KMS) Activation
-In addition to MAK or retail activation, you can use VAMT to perform volume activation using the Key Management Service (KMS). 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 treats a KMS Host key (CSVLK) product key identically to a retail-type product key; therefore, the experience for product key entry and activation management are identical for both these product key types.

-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 doesn’t see and can’t 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.

+# Troubleshoot Microsoft Defender Antivirus while migrating from a third-party solution
+
+[!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 | -
+-|-
+Winning GPO | Win10-Workstations
+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]
+> Solutions suggesting that you edit the *Windows Defender* start values for *wdboot*, *wdfilter*, *wdnisdrv*, *wdnissvc*, and *windefend* in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services are unsupported, and may force you to re-image your system.
+
+Passive mode is available if you start using Microsoft Defender ATP and a third-party antivirus together with Microsoft Defender Antivirus. 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.
+
+Another feature, known as [limited periodic scanning](limited-periodic-scanning-microsoft-defender-antivirus.md), is available to end-users when Microsoft Defender Antivirus is set to automatically turn off. This feature allows Microsoft Defender Antivirus to scan files periodically alongside a third-party antivirus, using a limited number of detections.
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Limited periodic scanning is not recommended in enterprise environments. The detection, management and reporting capabilities available when running Microsoft Defender Antivirus in this mode are reduced as compared to active mode.

### 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.

If an encryption driver prevents a VHD from being mounted or from being written to, Microsoft Defender Application Guard will not work and result in an error message (`0x80070013 ERROR_WRITE_PROTECT`).
### 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.

-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.

-> Regarding automation levels and default settings:
-> - If your tenant already has device groups defined, the automation level settings are not changed for those device groups.
-> - If your tenant was onboarded to Microsoft Defender ATP *before* August 16, 2020, and you have not defined a device group, your organization's default setting is **Semi - require approval for any remediation**.
-> - If your tenant was onboarded to Microsoft Defender ATP *before* August 16, 2020, and you do have a device group defined, you also have an **Ungrouped devices (default)** device group that is set to **Semi - require approval for any remediation**.
-> - If your tenant was onboarded to Microsoft Defender ATP *on or after* August 16, 2020, and you have not defined a device group, your orgnaization's default setting is **Full - remediate threats automatically**.
-> - If your tenant was onboarded to Microsoft Defender ATP *on or after* August 16, 2020, and you do have a device group defined, you also have an **Ungrouped devices (default)** device group that is set to **Full - remediate threats automatically**.
-> - To change an automation level, **[edit your device groups](configure-automated-investigations-remediation.md#set-up-device-groups)**.

-
-### 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.

+
+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`

+ ```bash
+ $ security cms -S -N "" -i com.microsoft.network-extension.mobileconfig -o com.microsoft.network-extension.signed.mobileconfig

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.

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.

The Suspect subscription collects additional events to help build context for system activity and can quickly be updated to accommodate new events and/or scenarios as needed without impacting baseline operations.
This implementation helps differentiate where events are ultimately stored. Baseline events can be sent to devices with online analytical capability, such as Security Event Manager (SEM), while also sending events to a MapReduce system, such as HDInsight or Hadoop, for long-term storage and deeper analysis. Events from the Suspect subscription are sent directly to a MapReduce system due to volume and lower signal/noise ratio, they are largely used for host forensic analysis.

This works for apps which may be unsigned or even signed apps when you don't want to trust all apps that may share the same signing certificate.
The basic process is to generate a catalog file for each app using Package Inspector, then sign the catalog files using the DGSS or a custom PKI. Use the Add-SignerRule PowerShell cmdlet as shown above to authorize the catalog signing certificate in the supplemental policy. After that, IT Pros can use the standard Intune app deployment process outlined above.

IT Pros also have the choice of deleting a supplemental policy through Intune.

-> This feature currently has a known bug which occurs when an S mode supplemental policy is deleted through Intune, in which the policy is not immediately removed from the devices to which it was deployed. A fix is expected in the 2D update in late February 2020. In the meantime, IT Pros are recommended to update their policy with the below 'empty' policy which makes no changes to S mode.

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.

## 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. AppLocker is a legacy technology which will continue to receive security fixes but 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.
-## 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.

@@ -86,7 +86,7 @@ The following table identifies and defines terms used throughout this guide.
| 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 "Isolated domain" 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.
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. |

| 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).
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.|
