[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 1085054, member: 32260"] In the case of Microsoft Defender, extended behavior-based detections are done in the cloud for files downloaded from the Internet and new files dropped to the disk. Such detections can take several seconds (minutes), so they are skipped for local files. Those files are checked behaviorally by the local resources. The only useful information from that video is that the "Controlled Folder Access" feature can be sometimes bypassed if ransomware is allowed to run. Anyway, Microsoft recommends applying an increased "Cloud Protection Level" (High+) and ASR rules to effectively prevent/detect/block ransomware. Defender's default settings can prevent ransomware by detecting the parent malware but are not focused on the ransomware detection. [/QUOTE]
