Can I install Anti Virus Software on My Microsoft Teams Room
Can I install Anti-Virus software on my Teams Room device? or would it break it? I am putting it in a separate VLAN and changing the default admin password. I am also thinking of installing antivirus software. Would this cause problem? What other security recommendations can I put in place?
- It is already installed. It is also already hardened. It is not "just Windows" on a Teams Room Device.
Treat it as you would a thermostat or a printer. - Hello, You can find some guidance here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/rooms/security
"Even though end users can't put files on a Teams Rooms hard drive, Microsoft Defender is still enabled. Teams Rooms performance is tested with Microsoft Defender. Disabling this or adding endpoint security software can lead to unpredictable results and potential system degradation."
