[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 835813, member: 32260"] [B]How the hell WD works on Windows Home & Pro?[/B] There are several Microsoft documents and articles about how Windows Defender (WD) works on Windows 10. But most of them are related to Windows Enterprise editions, and usually, authors present the features which are available only on Windows E5. There is only one document I am aware of, which shows the differences between Home, Pro, E3 and E5 editions: [URL unfurl="false"]https://query.prod.cms.rt.microsoft.com/cms/api/am/binary/RE2O8jv[/URL] The link to this document is added to most Microsoft documents about WD, and sometimes it seems to contradict what authors write about WD. From this document, it follows that some advanced WD features are available on Windows Home, even when most people think the opposite. Furthermore, [B][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]there are no essential differences between Home and Pro versions in the Windows Defender Threat Protection[/COLOR][/B], except: Hardware based isolation for Microsoft Edge, Application control powered by the Intelligent Security Graph (requires Microsoft paid software), and Device Control (e.g.: USB). WD was tested on Malware Hub by Evjl's Rain and SeriousHoax on Windows 10 Pro: [URL unfurl="false"]https://malwaretips.com/search/119614/?q=Windows+Defender&t=post&c[child_nodes]=1&c[nodes][0]=104&c[users]=SeriousHoax&o=date[/URL] [URL unfurl="false"]https://malwaretips.com/search/119657/?q=Windows+Defender&t=post&c[child_nodes]=1&c[nodes][0]=104&c[users]=Evjl%27s+Rain&o=date[/URL] [SIZE=4]In the following posts, I will try to present some conclusions about additional WD protection on Windows Home and Pro, which can be applied by using PowerShell or ConfigureDefender.[/SIZE] [COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)][SIZE=4][B]See my next posts in this thread:[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] [B][SIZE=4]Does WD use behavior blocking?[/SIZE][/B] [URL='https://malwaretips.com/threads/how-the-hell-wd-works-on-windows-home.95146/post-835847'][SIZE=4]Update - How the hell WD works on Windows Home & Pro?[/SIZE][/URL] [SIZE=4][B]Do AMSI, PUA protection, ASR rules, and Network Protectio[/B]n[B] work in Windows Home & Pro?
