In addition, the launch brings with it a new Threat and Vulnerability Management (TVM) feature in preview mode. Alas, there's no word on whether general users will get a consumer version in the future. It should also, theoretically, make life easier for IT admins that handle both Windows and Mac systems. With that in mind, it seems Microsoft may be on to something with its Defender cross-platform expansion. With a rise in malware incidents in recent years, macOS is starting to look decidedly less immune to attacks than it once did. And like Office for Mac, Defender will tap into Microsoft's AutoUpdate software to ensure it gets the latest features and fixes on time.
It packs the same preventative protection, post-breach detection and automated investigation and response tools as its Windows counterpart. Of course, it no longer makes sense to call it Windows Defender, so now it's Microsoft Defender.īusinesses can access an early preview of the Defender ATP for Mac starting today on devices running macOS Mojave, macOS High Sierra, or macOS Sierra.
Just days after launching Windows Defender extensions for Chrome and Firefox, Microsoft is bringing its antivirus software to more platforms, starting with the Mac.
