<!--Description-->
Available in Windows Update for Business (WUfB) devices running Windows 10, version 1809 and above and installed with October 2020 security update. This policy setting specifies that a WUfB device should skip safeguards.
Safeguard holds prevent a device with a known compatibility issue from being offered a new OS version. The offering will proceed once a fix is issued and is verified on a held device. The aim of safeguards is to protect the device and user from a failed or poor upgrade experience.
The safeguard holds protection is provided by default to all the devices trying to update to a new Windows 10 Feature Update version via Windows Update.
IT admins can, if necessary, opt devices out of safeguard protections using this policy setting or via the “Disable safeguards for Feature Updates” Group Policy.
> [!NOTE]
> Opting out of the safeguards can put devices at risk from known performance issues. We recommend opting out only in an IT environment for validation purposes. Further, you can leverage the Windows Insider Program for Business Release Preview Channel in order to validate the upcoming Windows 10 Feature Update version without the safeguards being applied.
>
> The disable safeguards policy will revert to “Not Configured” on a device after moving to a new Windows 10 version, even if previously enabled. This ensures the admin is consciously disabling Microsoft’s default protection from known issues for each new feature update.
>
> Disabling safeguards does not guarantee your device will be able to successfully update. The update may still fail on the device and will likely result in a bad experience post upgrade as you are bypassing the protection given by Microsoft pertaining to known issues.

# Create a deployment plan
A service management mindset means that the devices in your organization fall into a continuum, with the software update process being constantly planned, deployed, monitored, and optimized. And once this process is used for feature updates, quality updates become a lightweight procedure that is simple and fast to execute, ultimately increasing velocity.

There are basically two strategies for moving deployments from one ring to the next. One is service-based, the other project based.
- "Red button" (service based): Assumes that content is good until proven bad. Content flows until an issue is discovered, at which point the IT administrator presses the “red button” to stop further distribution.
- Green button (project based): Assumes that content is bad until proven good. Once all validation has passed, the IT administrator presses the “green button” to push the content to the next ring.
When it comes to deployments, having manual steps in the process usually impedes update velocity, so a "red button" strategy is better when that is your goal.

## Figure out roles and personnel
Planning and managing a deployment involves a variety of distinct activies and roles best suited to each. As you plan, it's worth figuring out which roles you'll need to carry out the deployment and who should fill them. Different roles are active at various phases of a deployment. Depending on the size and complexity of your organization, some of the roles could be filled by the same person. However, it's best to have an established *process manager*, who will oversee all of the tasks for the deployment.

# Define update strategy with a calendar
Traditionally, organizations treated the deployment of operating system updates (especially feature updates) as a discrete project that had a beginning, a middle, and an end. A release was "built" (usually in the form of an image) and then distributed to users and their devices.
Today, more organizations are treating deployment as a continual process of updates which roll out across the organization in waves. In this approach, an update is plugged into this process and while it runs, you monitor for anomalies, errors, or user impact and respond as issues arise--without interrupting the entire process. Microsoft has been evolving its Windows 10 release cycles, update mechanisms, and relevant tools to support this model. Feature updates are released twice per year, around March and September. All releases of Windows 10 have 18 months of servicing for all editions. Fall releases of the Enterprise and Education editions have an additional 12 months of servicing for specific Windows 10 releases, for a total of 30 months from initial release.

## Calendar approaches
You can use a calendar approach for either a faster twice-per-year cadence or an annual cadence. Depending on company size, installing Windows 10 feature updates less often than once annually risks devices going out of service and becoming vulnerable to security threats, because they will stop receiving the monthly security updates.

This approach provides approximately twelve months of use from each feature update before the next update is due to be installed. By aligning to the Windows 10, version H2 feature update, each release will be serviced for 30 months from the time of availability, giving you more flexibility when applying future feature updates.

This cadence might be most suitable for you if any of these conditions apply:
- You are just starting your journey with the Windows 10 servicing process. If you are unfamiliar with new processes that support Windows 10 servicing, moving from a once every 3-5 year project to a twice a year feature update process can be daunting. This approach gives you time to learn new approaches and tools to reduce effort and cost.

1. Review all of the infrastructure changes that you’ve identified in your plan. It’s important to understand the changes that need to be made and to detail how to implement them. This process prevents problems later on.
2. Validate your changes. You’ll validate the changes for your infrastructure’s components and tools, to help you understand how your changes could affect your production environment.
3. Implement the changes. Once the changes have been validated, you can implement the changes across the wider infrastructure.
You should also look at your organization’s environment’s configuration and outline how you’ll implement any necessary changes previously identified in the plan phase to support the update. Consider what you’ll need to do for the various settings and policies that currently underpin the environment. For example:
- Implement new draft security guidance. New versions of Windows can include new features that improve your environment’s security. Your security teams will want to make appropriate changes to security related configurations.
- Update security baselines. Security teams understand the relevant security baselines and will have to work to make sure all baselines fit into whatever guidance they have to adhere to.
However, your configuration will consist of many different settings and policies. It’s important to only apply changes where they are necessary, and where you gain a clear improvement. Otherwise, your environment might face issues that will slow down the update process. You want to ensure your environment isn’t affected adversely because of changes you make. For example:
1. Review new security settings. Your security team will review the new security settings, to understand how they can best be set to facilitate the update, and to also investigate the potential effects they might have on your environment.
2. Review security baselines for changes. Security teams will also review all the necessary security baselines, to ensure the changes can be implemented, and ensure your environment remains compliant.
3. Implement and validate security settings and baseline changes. Your security teams will then implement all of the security settings and baselines, having addressed any potential outstanding issues.

# Safeguard holds
Microsoft uses quality and compatibility data to identify issues that might cause a Windows 10 feature update to fail or roll back. When find such an issue, we might apply holds to the updating service to prevent affected devices from installing the update in order to safeguard them from these experiences. We also use holds when a customer, a partner, or Microsoft internal validation finds an issue that would cause severe impact (for example, rollback of the update, data loss, loss of connectivity, or loss of key functionality) and when a workaround is not immediately available.
Safeguard holds prevent a device with a known issue from being offered a new operating system version. We renew the offering once a fix is found and verified. We use holds to ensure customers have a successful experience as their device moves to a new version of Windows 10.
The lifespan of holds varies depending on the time required to investigate and fix an issue. During this time Microsoft works diligently to procure, develop, and validate a fix and then offer it to affected devices. We monitor quality and compatibility data to confirm that a fix is complete before releasing the hold. Once we release the hold, Windows Update will resume offering new operating system versions to devices.
Safeguard holds only affect devices that use the Window Update service for updates. We encourage IT admins who manage updates to devices through other channels (such as media installations or updates coming from Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)) to remain aware of known issues that might also be present in their environments.
## Am I affected by a safeguard hold?
IT admins can use [Update Compliance](update-compliance-feature-update-status.md#safeguard-holds) to monitor various update health metrics for devices in their organization, including ones affected by a safeguard hold that prevents them from updating to a newer operating system version.
Queries identify Safeguard IDs for each affected device, giving IT admins a detailed view into the various protections extended to devices. Safeguard IDs for publicly discussed known issues are also included in the [Windows Release Health](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/release-information/status-windows-10-1903) dashboard, where you can easily find information related to publicly available safeguards.
On devices that use Windows Update (but not Windows Update for Business), the **Windows Update** page in the Settings app displays a message stating that an update is on its way, but not ready for the device. Instead of the option to download and install the update, users will see this message:
![Feature update message reading "The Windows 10 May 2020 Update is on its way. Once it's ready for your device, you'll see the update available on this page](images/safeguard-hold-notification.png)
If you see this message, it means one or more holds affect your device. When the issue is fixed and the update is safe to install, we’ll release the hold and the update can resume safely.
## What can I do?
We recommend that you do not attempt to manually update until issues have been resolved and holds released.
> [!CAUTION]
> Opting out of a safeguard hold can put devices at risk from known performance issues. We strongly recommend that you complete robust testing to ensure the impact is acceptable before opting out.
With that in mind, IT admins who stay informed with [Update Compliance](update-compliance-feature-update-status.md#safeguard-holds) and the [Windows Release Health](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/release-information/status-windows-10-1903) dashboard can choose to temporarily [opt-out of the protection of all safeguard holds](safeguard-opt-out.md) and allow an update to proceed. We recommend opting out only in an IT environment and for validation purposes. If you do opt out of a hold, this condition is temporary. Once an update is complete, protection of safeguard holds is reinstated automatically.

# Opt out of safeguard holds
Safeguard holds prevent a device with a known compatibility issue from being offered a new Windows 10 feature update by using Windows Update. We use safeguard holds to protect the device and user from a failed or poor update experience. We renew the offering once a fix is issued and is verified on an affected device. For more information about safeguard holds, see [Safeguard holds](safeguard-holds.md).
## How can I opt out of safeguard holds?
IT admins can, if necessary, opt devices out of safeguard protections by using the disable safeguards policy. In a Mobile Device Management (MDM) tool, use the **Update/DisableWUfBSafeguards** CSP. In Group Policy, use the **Disable safeguards for Feature Updates** Group Policy. This policy is available to Windows Update for Business devices running Windows 10, version 1809 or later that have installed the October 2020 security update.
> [!CAUTION]
> Opting out of a safeguard hold can put devices at risk from known performance issues.
We recommend opting out only in an IT environment and for validation purposes. You can also validate an upcoming Windows 10 feature update version without the safeguards being applied by using the Release Preview channel of the Windows Insider Program for Business.
Disabling safeguards does not guarantee your device will be able to successfully update. The update might still fail and will likely result in a bad experience since you are bypassing the protection against known issues.
> [!NOTE]
> After a device installs a new Windows 10 version, the **Disable safeguards for Feature Updates** Group Policy will revert to “not configured” even if it was previously enabled. We do this to ensure the admin is consciously disabling Microsoft’s default protection from known issues for each new feature update.

Update Compliance reporting will display the Safeguard IDs for known issues affecting a device in the **DeploymentErrorCode** column. Safeguard IDs for publicly discussed known issues are also included in the Windows Release Health dashboard, where you can easily find information related to publicly available safeguards.
### Opting out of safeguard hold
Microsoft will release a device from a safeguard hold when it has determined it can safely and smoothly install a feature update, but you are ultimately in control of your devices and can opt out if desired.
To opt out, set the registry key as follows:
- Registry Key Path :: **Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion**
- Create New Key :: **502505fe-762c-4e80-911e-0c3fa4c63fb0**
- Name :: **DataRequireGatedScanForFeatureUpdates**
- Type :: **REG_DWORD**
- Value :: **0**
Setting this registry key to **0** will force the device to opt out from *all* safeguard holds. Any other value, or deleting the key, will resume compatibility protection on the device.
### Opt out of safeguard hold
You can [opt out of safeguard protections](safeguard-opt-out.md) by using the **Disable safeguards for Feature Updates** Group Policy. This policy is available to Windows Update for Business devices running Windows 10, version 1809 or later that have installed the October 2020 security update.

This article does not detail how to configure AD DS to store the BitLocker recovery information.
## <a href="" id="bkmk-whatisrecovery"></a>What is BitLocker recovery?
BitLocker recovery is the process by which you can restore access to a BitLocker-protected drive in the event that you cannot unlock the drive normally. In a recovery scenario, you have the following options to restore access to the drive:
- The user can supply the recovery password. If your organization allows users to print or store recovery passwords, the user can type in the 48-digit recovery password that they printed or stored on a USB drive or with your Microsoft Account online. (Saving a recovery password with your Microsoft Account online is only allowed when BitLocker is used on a PC that is not a member of a domain).
- A data recovery agent can use their credentials to unlock the drive. If the drive is an operating system drive, the drive must be mounted as a data drive on another computer for the data recovery agent to unlock it.
- A domain administrator can obtain the recovery password from AD DS and use it to unlock the drive. Storing recovery passwords in AD DS is recommended to provide a way for IT professionals to be able to obtain recovery passwords for drives in their organization if needed. This method requires that you have enabled this recovery method in the BitLocker Group Policy setting **Choose how BitLocker-protected operating system drives can be recovered** located at **Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\BitLocker Drive Encryption\\Operating System Drives** in the Local Group Policy Editor. For more information, see [BitLocker Group Policy settings](bitlocker-group-policy-settings.md).

For more information, see [BitLocker Group Policy settings](bitlocker-group-policy-settings.md).
### What causes BitLocker recovery?
The following list provides examples of specific events that will cause BitLocker to enter recovery mode when attempting to start the operating system drive:
- On PCs that use BitLocker Drive Encryption, or on devices such as tablets or phones that use [BitLocker Device Encryption](bitlocker-device-encryption-overview-windows-10.md) only, when an attack is detected, the device will immediately reboot and enter into BitLocker recovery mode. To take advantage of this functionality Administrators can set the **Interactive logon: Machine account lockout threshold** Group Policy setting located in **\\Computer Configuration\\Windows Settings\\Security Settings\\Local Policies\\Security Options** in the Local Group Policy Editor, or use the **MaxFailedPasswordAttempts** policy of [Exchange ActiveSync](/Exchange/clients/exchange-activesync/exchange-activesync) (also configurable through [Microsoft Intune](https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/enterprise-mobility-security/microsoft-intune)), to limit the number of failed password attempts before the device goes into Device Lockout.
- On devices with TPM 1.2, changing the BIOS or firmware boot device order causes BitLocker recovery. However, devices with TPM 2.0 do not start BitLocker recovery in this case. TPM 2.0 does not consider a firmware change of boot device order as a security threat because the OS Boot Loader is not compromised.
- Having the CD or DVD drive before the hard drive in the BIOS boot order and then inserting or removing a CD or DVD.
- Failing to boot from a network drive before booting from the hard drive.
- Docking or undocking a portable computer. In some instances (depending on the computer manufacturer and the BIOS), the docking condition of the portable computer is part of the system measurement and must be consistent to validate the system status and unlock BitLocker. This means that if a portable computer is connected to its docking station when BitLocker is turned on, then it might also need to be connected to the docking station when it is unlocked. Conversely, if a portable computer is not connected to its docking station when BitLocker is turned on, then it might need to be disconnected from the docking station when it is unlocked.
- Changes to the NTFS partition table on the disk including creating, deleting, or resizing a primary partition.
- Entering the personal identification number (PIN) incorrectly too many times so that the anti-hammering logic of the TPM is activated. Anti-hammering logic is software or hardware methods that increase the difficulty and cost of a brute force attack on a PIN by not accepting PIN entries until after a certain amount of time has passed.
- Turning off the support for reading the USB device in the pre-boot environment from the BIOS or UEFI firmware if you are using USB-based keys instead of a TPM.
- Turning off, disabling, deactivating, or clearing the TPM.
- Upgrading critical early startup components, such as a BIOS or UEFI firmware upgrade, causing the related boot measurements to change.
- Forgetting the PIN when PIN authentication has been enabled.
- Updating option ROM firmware.
- Upgrading TPM firmware.
- Adding or removing hardware; for example, inserting a new card in the computer, including some PCMIA wireless cards.
- Removing, inserting, or completely depleting the charge on a smart battery on a portable computer.
- Changes to the master boot record on the disk.
- Changes to the boot manager on the disk.
- Hiding the TPM from the operating system. Some BIOS or UEFI settings can be used to prevent the enumeration of the TPM to the operating system. When implemented, this option can make the TPM hidden from the operating system. When the TPM is hidden, BIOS and UEFI secure startup are disabled, and the TPM does not respond to commands from any software.
- Using a different keyboard that does not correctly enter the PIN or whose keyboard map does not match the keyboard map assumed by the pre-boot environment. This can prevent the entry of enhanced PINs.
- Modifying the Platform Configuration Registers (PCRs) used by the TPM validation profile. For example, including **PCR\[1\]** would result in BitLocker measuring most changes to BIOS settings, causing BitLocker to enter recovery mode even when non-boot critical BIOS settings change.
- On PCs that use BitLocker Drive Encryption, or on devices such as tablets or phones that use [BitLocker Device Encryption](bitlocker-device-encryption-overview-windows-10.md) only, when an attack is detected, the device will immediately reboot and enter into BitLocker recovery mode. To take advantage of this functionality Administrators can set the **Interactive logon: Machine account lockout threshold** Group Policy setting located in **\\Computer Configuration\\Windows Settings\\Security Settings\\Local Policies\\Security Options** in the Local Group Policy Editor, or use the **MaxFailedPasswordAttempts** policy of [Exchange ActiveSync](/Exchange/clients/exchange-activesync/exchange-activesync) (also configurable through [Microsoft Intune](https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/enterprise-mobility-security/microsoft-intune)), to limit the number of failed password attempts before the device goes into Device Lockout.

> [!NOTE]
> Some computers have BIOS settings that skip measurements to certain PCRs, such as **PCR\[2\]**. Changing this setting in the BIOS would cause BitLocker to enter recovery mode because the PCR measurement will be different.
- Moving the BitLocker-protected drive into a new computer.
- Upgrading the motherboard to a new one with a new TPM.
- Losing the USB flash drive containing the startup key when startup key authentication has been enabled.
- Failing the TPM self-test.
- Having a BIOS, UEFI firmware, or an option ROM component that is not compliant with the relevant Trusted Computing Group standards for a client computer. For example, a non-compliant implementation may record volatile data (such as time) in the TPM measurements, causing different measurements on each startup and causing BitLocker to start in recovery mode.
- Changing the usage authorization for the storage root key of the TPM to a non-zero value.

> [!NOTE]
> Before you begin recovery, we recommend that you determine what caused recovery. This might help prevent the problem from occurring again in the future. For instance, if you determine that an attacker has modified your computer by obtaining physical access, you can create new security policies for tracking who has physical presence. After the recovery password has been used to recover access to the PC, BitLocker will reseal the encryption key to the current values of the measured components.

Recovery has been described within the context of unplanned or undesired behavior, but you can also cause recovery as an intended production scenario, in order to manage access control. For example, when you redeploy desktop or laptop computers to other departments or employees in your enterprise, you can force BitLocker into recovery before the computer is given to a new user.

### <a href="" id="bkmk-selfrecovery"></a>Self-recovery
In some cases, users might have the recovery password in a printout or a USB flash drive and can perform self-recovery. We recommend that your organization create a policy for self-recovery. If self-recovery includes using a password or recovery key stored on a USB flash drive, the users should be warned not to store the USB flash drive in the same place as the PC, especially during travel, for example if both the PC and the recovery items are in the same bag it would be very easy for access to be gained to the PC by an unauthorized user. Another policy to consider is having users contact the Helpdesk before or after performing self-recovery so that the root cause can be identified.
### <a href="" id="bkmk-recoveryretrieval"></a>Recovery password retrieval
If the user does not have a recovery password in a printout or on a USB flash drive, the user will need to be able to retrieve the recovery password from an online source. If the PC is a member of a domain the recovery password can be backed up to AD DS. However, this does not happen by default, you must have configured the appropriate Group Policy settings before BitLocker was enabled on the PC. BitLocker Group Policy settings can be found in the Local Group Policy Editor or the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) under **Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\BitLocker Drive Encryption**. The following policy settings define the recovery methods that can be used to restore access to a BitLocker-protected drive if an authentication method fails or is unable to be used.
- **Choose how BitLocker-protected operating system drives can be recovered**
- **Choose how BitLocker-protected fixed drives can be recovered**
- **Choose how BitLocker-protected removable drives can be recovered**

When a volume is unlocked using a recovery password, an event is written to the event log and the platform validation measurements are reset in the TPM to match the current configuration. Unlocking the volume means that the encryption key has been released and is ready for on-the-fly encryption
when data is written to the volume, and on-the-fly decryption when data is read from the volume. After the volume is unlocked, BitLocker behaves the same way, regardless of how the access was granted.
If you notice that a computer is having repeated recovery password unlocks, you might want to have an administrator can perform post-recovery analysis to determine the root cause of the recovery and refresh BitLocker platform validation so that the user no longer needs to enter a recovery password each time that the computer starts up.

1. What BitLocker protection mode is in effect (TPM, TPM + PIN, TPM + startup key, startup key only)? Which PCR profile is in use on the PC?
2. Did the user merely forget the PIN or lose the startup key? If a token was lost, where might the token be?
3. If TPM mode was in effect, was recovery caused by a boot file change?
4. If recovery was caused by a boot file change, is this due to an intended user action (for example, BIOS upgrade), or to malicious software?
5. When was the user last able to start the computer successfully, and what might have happened to the computer since then?
6. Might the user have encountered malicious software or left the computer unattended since the last successful startup?

To help you answer these questions, use the BitLocker command-line tool to view the current configuration and protection mode (for example, **manage-bde -status**). Scan the event log to find events that help indicate why recovery was initiated (for example, if boot file change occurred). Both of these capabilities can be performed remotely.

This prevents the computer from going into recovery mode. However if changes were made when BitLocker protection was on you can simply log on to the computer using the recovery password and the platform validation profile will be updated so that recovery will not occur the next time.

## Windows RE and BitLocker Device Encryption
Windows Recovery Environment (RE) can be used to recover access to a drive protected by [BitLocker Device Encryption](bitlocker-device-encryption-overview-windows-10.md). If a PC is unable to boot after two failures, Startup Repair will automatically start. When Startup Repair is launched automatically due to boot failures, it will only execute operating system and driver file repairs, provided that the boot logs or any available crash dump point to a specific corrupted file. In Windows 8.1 and later, devices that include firmware to support specific TPM measurements for PCR\[7\] the TPM can validate that Windows RE is a trusted operating environment and will unlock any BitLocker-protected drives if Windows RE has not been modified. If the Windows RE environment has been modified, for example the TPM has been disabled, the drives will stay locked until the BitLocker recovery key is provided. If Startup Repair is not able to be run automatically from the PC and instead Windows RE is manually started from a repair disk, the BitLocker recovery key must be provided to unlock the BitLocker–protected drives.
## BitLocker recovery screen
During BitLocker recovery, Windows can display a custom recovery message and hints that identify where a key can be retrieved from. These improvements can help a user during BitLocker recovery.
### Custom recovery message
BitLocker Group Policy settings in Windows 10, version 1511, let you configure a custom recovery message and URL on the BitLocker recovery screen, which can include the address of the BitLocker self-service recovery portal, the IT internal website, or a phone number for support.

BitLocker metadata has been enhanced in Windows 10, version 1903 to include information about when and where the BitLocker recovery key was backed up. This information is not exposed through the UI or any public API. It is used solely by the BitLocker recovery screen in the form of hints to help a user locate a volume's recovery key. Hints are displayed on the recovery screen and refer to the location where key has been saved. Hints are displayed in both the modern (blue) and legacy (black) recovery screen. This applies to both the bootmanager recovery screen and the WinRE unlock screen.

### BitLocker key package
If the recovery methods discussed earlier in this document do not unlock the volume, you can use the BitLocker Repair tool to decrypt the volume at the block level. The tool uses the BitLocker key package to help recover encrypted data from severely damaged drives. You can then use this recovered data to salvage encrypted data, even after the correct recovery password has failed to unlock the damaged volume.

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.
Watch the following video to see how automated investigation and remediation works:
> [!VIDEO https://www.microsoft.com/videoplayer/embed/RE4bOeh]
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 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 takes action to remediate threats.
As alerts are triggered, and an automated investigation runs, a verdict is generated for each piece of evidence investigated. Verdicts can be *Malicious*, *Suspicious*, or *No threats found*.
> [!NOTE]
> Microsoft Defender for Endpoint tenants created on or after August 16, 2020 have **Full - remediate threats automatically** selected by default. You can keep the default setting, or change it according to your organizational needs. To change your settings, [adjust your device group settings](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-automated-investigations-remediation#set-up-device-groups).
As verdicts are reached, automated investigations can result in one or more remediation actions. Examples of remediation actions include sending a file to quarantine, stopping a service, removing a scheduled task, and more. (See [Remediation actions](manage-auto-investigation.md#remediation-actions).)
You can configure the following levels of automation:
Depending on the [level of automation](automation-levels.md) set for your organization, remediation actions can occur automatically or only upon approval by your security operations team.
|Automation level | Description|
|---|---|
|**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.

# Automation levels in automated investigation and remediation capabilities
Automated investigation and remediation (AIR) capabilities in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint can be configured to one of several levels of automation. Your automation level affects whether remediation actions following AIR investigations are taken automatically or only upon approval.
- *Full automation* (recommended) means remediation actions are taken automatically on artifacts determined to be malicious.
- *Semi-automation* means some remediation actions are taken automatically, but other remediation actions await approval before being taken. (See the table in [Levels of automation](#levels-of-automation).)
- All remediation actions, whether pending or completed, are tracked in the Action Center ([https://securitycenter.windows.com](https://securitycenter.windows.com)).
> [!TIP]
> For best results, we recommend using full automation when you [configure AIR](configure-automated-investigations-remediation.md). Data collected and analyzed over the past year shows that customers who are using full automation had 40% more high-confidence malware samples removed than customers who are using lower levels of automation. Full automation can help free up your security operations resources to focus more on your strategic initiatives.
## Levels of automation
The following table describes each level of automation and how it works.
|Automation level | Description|
|:---|:---|
|**Full - remediate threats automatically** <br/>(also referred to as *full automation*)| With full automation, remediation actions are performed automatically. All remediation actions that are taken can be viewed in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md) on the **History** tab. If necessary, a remediation action can be undone.<br/><br/>***Full automation 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.* |
|**Semi - require approval for any remediation** <br/>(also referred to as *semi-automation*)| With this level of semi-automation, approval is required for *any* remediation action. Such pending actions can be viewed and approved in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md), on the **Pending** tab.<br/><br/>*This level of semi-automation is selected by default for tenants that were created before August 16, 2020 with Microsoft Defender ATP, with no device groups defined.*|
|**Semi - require approval for core folders remediation** <br/>(also a type of *semi-automation*) | With this level of semi-automation, approval is required for any remediation actions needed on files or executables that are in core folders. Core folders include operating system directories, such as the **Windows** (`\windows\*`).<br/><br/>Remediation actions can be taken automatically on files or executables that are in other (non-core) folders. <br/><br/>Pending actions for files or executables in core folders can be viewed and approved in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md), on the **Pending** tab. <br/><br/>Actions that were taken on files or executables in other folders can be viewed in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md), on the **History** tab. |
|**Semi - require approval for non-temp folders remediation** <br/>(also a type of *semi-automation*)| With this level of semi-automation, approval is required for any remediation actions needed on files or executables that are *not* in temporary folders. <br/><br/>Temporary folders can include the following examples: <br/>- `\users\*\appdata\local\temp\*`<br/>- `\documents and settings\*\local settings\temp\*` <br/>- `\documents and settings\*\local settings\temporary\*`<br/>- `\windows\temp\*`<br/>- `\users\*\downloads\*`<br/>- `\program files\` <br/>- `\program files (x86)\*`<br/>- `\documents and settings\*\users\*`<br/><br/>Remediation actions can be taken automatically on files or executables that are in temporary folders. <br/><br/>Pending actions for files or executables that are not in temporary folders can be viewed and approved in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md), on the **Pending** tab.<br/><br/>Actions that were taken on files or executables in temporary folders can be viewed and approved in the [Action Center](auto-investigation-action-center.md), on the **History** tab. |
|**No automated response** <br/>(also referred to as *no automation*) | With no automation, 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. However, other threat protection features, such as [protection from potentially unwanted applications](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-antivirus/detect-block-potentially-unwanted-apps-microsoft-defender-antivirus), can be in effect, depending on how your antivirus and next-generation protection features are configured.<br/><br/>***Using the *no automation* option is not recommended**, because it reduces the security posture of your organization's devices. [Consider setting up your automation level to full automation (or at least semi-automation)](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/machine-groups)*. |
## Important points about automation levels
- Full automation has proven to be reliable, efficient, and safe, and is recommended for all customers. Full automation frees up your critical security resources so they can focus more on your strategic initiatives.
- New tenants (which include tenants that were created on or after August 16, 2020) with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint are set to full automation by default.
- If your security team has defined device groups with a level of automation, those settings are not changed by the new default settings that are rolling out.
- You can keep your default automation settings, or change them according to your organizational needs. To change your settings, [set your level of automation](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/configure-automated-investigations-remediation#set-up-device-groups).
