Settings for Microsoft Defender Antivirus policy for tenant attached devices in Microsoft Intune

  • Artikkeli

View the Microsoft Defender Antivirus settings you can manage with the Microsoft Defender Antivirus Policy (ConfigMgr) profile from Intune. The profile is available when you configure Intune Endpoint security Antivirus policy, and the policy deploys to devices you manage with Configuration Manager when you've configured the tenant attach scenario. (Path in the Microsoft Intune admin center: Endpoint security > Antivirus > + Create Policy > Platform = Windows (ConfigMgr) > Profile = Microsoft Defender Antivirus.)

Cloud protection
