Passive mode is enabled if you are enrolled in Windows Defender ATP because [the service requires common information sharing from the Windows Defender AV service](../windows-defender-atp/defender-compatibility-windows-defender-advanced-threat-protection.md) in order to properly monitor your devices and network for intrusion attempts and attacks.
Automatic disabled mode is enabled so that if the protection offered by a third-party antivirus product goes out of date, is not updated, or stops providing real-time protection from viruses, malware, and other threats, Windows Defender AV will automatically enable itself to ensure antivirus protection is maintained on the endpoint.
