Event details

Let's do this! Get an overview of the latest enhancements and improvements in Windows Firewall management and protection. Windows Firewall is a core component of the Windows security platform that helps protect your devices and data from network threats. We'll showcase some of the new and upcoming features that have been added to over the last year, and show how they can help you achieve better security outcomes. We'll cover Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC) Application ID Tagging with Intune Firewall Rules, policy support for network list manager settings, Firewall Rules for ICMP, policy support for log configuration, debugging, reusable settings, and more! We will also give you a sneak peek of what's coming next for Windows Firewall. Join us to learn how to use the latest from Windows Firewall in 2023.

 

This session is part of the Microsoft Technical Takeoff: Windows + Intune. Add it to your calendar, RSVP for event reminders, and post your questions and comments below! This session will also be recorded and available on demand shortly after conclusion of the live event.

    Maybe not totally the right location to ask this, but is there or will there be a possibillity to change network connections from public to private for AAD joined devices?

     

    For example, intune distributed Corporate WiFi profiles will not be marked as Private.

    Is the ability to overwrite/displace(overwrite) GPO Firewall rules on the roadmap for Endpoint Security Firewall?

      Can you provide a bit more information on what you're looking for here? Which source do you want to overwrite group policy?

        Simply, we must remove Active Directory Group Policy Object firewall rules for Intune /Endpoint Security Firewall rules to become applied.

    Will any of the application tagging or other enhancements be applicable to on premise (Either GPO managed or Configuration Manager) scenarios?

      This question is about the WDAC application ID tagging functionality, correct? Are you asking if that will be available in general? The majority of firewall specific changes outlined are currently only supported in the CSP at this time.

    Hello, hoping to hear about some sort of conditional access for the firewall, that would be amazing 🤞. For example allowing connections based on MDE configuration, OS version, Browser version, etc.
