Add Privacy Scrub Service to Microsoft Defender?
Microsoft Defender protects accounts against phishing and malware, but attackers increasingly exploit nuisance data broker sites that publish personal information (names, emails, addresses). These sites are scraped to personalize phishing campaigns, making them harder to detect. I propose a premium Defender add‑on that automatically files opt‑out requests with major data brokers (similar to DeleteMe).
Question malware detected Defender for Windows 10
Why did my Microsoft Defender detect a malicious file in AppData\Roaming\Secure\QtWebKit4.dll (Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.C!ml) during a full scan and the Kaspersky Free and Malwarebytes Free scans didn't detect it? Was it maliciously modifying, corrupting, or deleting various files on my PC before detection? I sent it to Virus Total, the hash: 935cd9070679168cfcea6aea40d68294ae5f44c551cee971e69dc32f0d7ce14b Inside the same folder as this DLL, there's another folder with a suspicious file, Caller.exe. I sent it to Virus Total, and only one detection from 72 antivirus programs was found, with the name TrojanPSW.Rhadamanthys. VT hash: d2251490ca5bd67e63ea52a65bbff8823f2012f417ad0bd073366c02aa0b3828

I was involved in a romance scam. I have my computer set up that you need to approve login through my cell phone. Now, I have reason to believe that he is unsuccessfully trying to login to my computer from different isps all over the world. He tries several times a day almost every day. I have enabled all the security ways that I can. Is there any way I can block him without the hassle of changing my email everywhere?New blog post | Entra Identity Governance with Entra Verified ID
I’m excited to announce the integration of Entra Identity Governance Entitlement Management with a very cool technology we recently introduced, Microsoft Entra Verified ID! If you think about what you need to onboard new users including employees, contractors, partners, or other business guests, it often includes verifying identity information and credentials. This process can be tedious and time-consuming, requiring users to fill out redundant online forms or paperwork, ultimately delaying hiring timelines and ramp-up periods.

Read the full blog post: The New Microsoft Security Customer Connection Program (CCP) - Microsoft Community Hub The security community is constantly growing, changing, and learning from each other in order to better position the world against cyber security threats. For years, Microsoft has driven a customer-obsessed development process by hosting two private communities for end-users of Microsoft security products: the Microsoft Cloud Security Private Community and the Microsoft 365 Defender Customer Connection Program. Under a strict confidentiality framework, our engineering teams get direct community feedback and insights for our roadmap plans, new user experience designs, private preview features, and more. Today, we are happy to announce that these two communities have now come together under one team – The Microsoft Security Customer Connection Program.
