Microsoft Defender
Is the improved performance of Microsoft Defender a myth? Should we necessarily be using a 3rd party AV?

[QUOTE="Andy Ful, post: 968839, member: 32260"] You have never been to this theater.(y) If you are looking for evidence then look at the tests on Malware Hub. Even without any AV (only properly configured SRP) the results were like in (almost) perfect theater. You can compare them with the test results of VS, if you need a reference point. Anyway, you are right that classic SRP was not designed to mitigate modern threats in the business environment. The danger comes from the attacks with admin rights via lateral movement. Furthermore, SRP and Windows policies are not well designed to stop the highly targeted attacks. Lastly, most people do not know how to configure SRP for optimal protection (you are not the only one). Properly configured SRP + simple hardening (like blocking SMB protocols and remote features) is still very efficient when a few computers are connected to the home router (no lateral movement).
