Defender ATP for Mac - Time Machine
Is anyone on here trying to use Defender ATP for Mac? We are currently in testing, and have found that when the Real-time Protection is enabled, Time Machine backups will fail. Time Machine on our Macs is set to backup across the LAN to a NAS, rather than to local USB drive. The only error I get is that the backup volume could not be accessed. Excluding the backup processes from scanning does not seem to have any effect on the problem. If I turn off the Real-time.. everything work just fine. Any thoughts? Anyone from Microsoft reading these?macOS Remote Desktop client app - automatic logon (no credential prompt)
Sorry if this isn't a good place to post this question. But I'm trying to locate the right place for macOS RDClient feedback now that https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/uservoice-pages-430e1a78-e016-472a-a10f-dc2a3df3450a. I am trying to automate the launch of RD Client without prompting for a credential. The macOS RD client (GUI) allows storing passwords securely in the macOS Keychain and will use them to automatically log on when double-clicked from the bookmarks. On Windows, I understand there is a way to use a little-known "password 51:b:<myEncryptedPassword>" attribute to pass an encrypted string as a password from the .RDP file. AFAICT there is no way to completely automate the RDP logon without password prompt on MacOS, for the following reasons: - No way to pass a password credential (encrypted or otherwise) via https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/remote-desktop-uri - No way to control the RDClient app via AppleScript - Bookmarks within app support saving credentials in Keychain, but there's no way to initiate a connection to a 'bookmark' via the URL scheme (bookmarks are stored in a totally separate SQLite database, and password is not contained within) - https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/pull/9199, so the hidden `password 51:b:myEncryptedPassword` attribute does not work. - No way to save an .RDP file or any shortcut/alias that includes the password (this would be bad for security even if it were possible!) Anyone got an ideas here?
