Defender Updates - Windows Update and in-app update the same
I'm having trouble understanding the update process of windows defender. There are 2 update locations and I don't see what the difference is - or if they are one and the same thing. 1. Windows Security => Virus & threat protection => Protection updates These updates can be scheduled to download and install using the defender group policy settings. 2. Windows Update Is always showing a "Security Intelligance-Update" missing/waiting for install (we do not auto-install updates on our servers). So my questions are: - Are both of those the same thing? The name suggests this to be the case - If yes, how can we just use the in-app updater without triggering windows update for the security intelligence updates? - If no, how can we auto install security intelligence updates without also auto installing all other windows updates? Thanks in advance
