Re: Defender Update Controls
Oadel57 The Engine and platform updates are monthly and the settings only allow settings within that range. From having a quick look at the settings you don't have the option of setting platform updates 6 monthly, and to be honest you do not want to leave any AV component for that long without an update. You want all 3 of these kept as up to date as possible on an ongoing basis. In this image the client version is your platform, and the Engine version is the Engine. You want both of these updated monthly and the settings allow you to tweak how soon the endpoints will update after the update is made available by Microsoft. What this allows you to do is have a different policy for critical/sensitive/flakey endpoints that you may want to download updates for after they have been applied to other endpoints on your estate to monitor for any issues. Hope this helps.627Views0likes0CommentsRe: Defender Update Controls
Hi Omar. This refers to different components of Microsoft Defender, and each has it's own update channel. You are just picking where those updates come from. For example; If you search in Windows for "Window Security" > go to settings > then select "About" you'll see some of the components and their versions.680Views0likes2CommentsMFA and security defaults with mixed licence levels
Hi all! There is a similar post for this question but it dates back to 2020 and things have changed since then, I'm hoping someone can help me 🙂 My question is, The majority of accounts in AAD have P1 licences, however there are a some using free licences. The P1s have MFA enabled and we want to enable for the free accounts without impacting the settings for the P1's. Is this possible? I know we can turn on security defaults at the tenant level but would this affect the accounts already using MFA? Also does anyone have experience enabling security defaults within a production environment? curious if after enabled all users are forced to enrol within the MFA app on the next login? My understanding is that security defaults only supports MS auth app 2FA. Thanks for any help RobSolved1.4KViews0likes2Comments
