A properly configured Defender ATP instance in a network is a beast to circumvent for attackers. It's a really nice piece of software as far as I'm concerned.

A properly configured Defender ATP instance in a network is a beast to circumvent for attackers. It's a really nice piece of software as far as I'm concerned. Defender on personal systems owned & maintained by a knowledgeable power user, maybe less useful. Still, Defender ATP in the corporate environment is so much, much more than just an anti-virus scanner. There its primary functionality is EDR first, anti-virus distant second. And it works phenomenally.
