Block at first sight provides a way to detect and block new malware within seconds. This protection is enabled by default when certain prerequisite settings are also enabled. In most cases, these prerequisite settings are also enabled by default, so the feature is running without any intervention. Block at first sight provides a way to detect and block new malware within seconds. This protection is enabled by default when certain prerequisite settings are enabled. These settings include cloud-delivered protection, a specified sample submission timeout (usually set to 50), and a file-blocking level of high. In most enterprise organizations, these settings are enabled by default with Microsoft Defender Antivirus deployments.

## Confirm and validate that block at first sight is turned on ## Turn on block at first sight with Microsoft Intune
Block at first sight requires a number of settings to be configured correctly or it will not work. These settings are enabled by default in most enterprise Microsoft Defender Antivirus deployments. > [!TIP]
> Microsoft Intune is now part of Microsoft Endpoint Manager.
### Confirm block at first sight is turned on with Intune 1. In the Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center ([https://endpoint.microsoft.com](https://endpoint.microsoft.com)), navigate to **Devices** > **Configuration profiles**.
1. In Intune, navigate to **Device configuration - Profiles** > *Profile name* > **Device restrictions** > **Microsoft Defender Antivirus**. 2. Select or create a profile using the **Device restrictions** profile type.
> [!NOTE] 3. In the **Configuration settings** for the Device restrictions profile, set or confirm the following settings under **Microsoft Defender Antivirus**:
> The profile you select must be a Device Restriction profile type, not an Endpoint Protection profile type.
2. Verify these settings are configured as follows: - **Cloud-delivered protection**: Enabled
- **File Blocking Level**: High
- **Cloud-delivered protection**: **Enable** - **Time extension for file scanning by the cloud**: 50
- **File Blocking Level**: **High** - **Prompt users before sample submission**: Send all data without prompting
