Windows Defender ATP

It will run on macOS Sierra, High Sierra, and Mojave. It sounds like it works like a typical anti-malware tool. You’ll run quick scans, full scans, custom scans, real-time protection, cloud-delivered protection, and automatic sample submission.

Current Defender ATP customers can apply for a preview. We’re not sure when the product will launch.

    I’m going to trust the security of my Mac to Microsoft … but first I’m going to go read the DCM-5 official definition of “Narcissist Personality Disorder” and then still vote for Trump…
