S01E41 - Enabling Microsoft Defender Web Protection (Proxy) in the Defender Security Center (I.T)

Published: Jun 10, 2020 by Intune.Training

Steve and Ben drag Adam trough more security stuff. Adam is thrilled.

Microsoft released a new Web protection feature on securitycenter.microsoft.com which uses the 3rd party Cyren web proxy. This does require an E5 License.

Update: 7th July 2020 Web content filtering is now included with a Microsoft Defender ATP license. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-defender-atp/an-update-on-web-content-filtering/ba-p/1505445

Looks like we might have forgotten to enable network protection which can be done either by policy from the Microsoft Defender ATP security baseline or the endpoint protection configuration profile. You can also do this using PowerShell with the following command: Set-MpPreference -EnableNetworkProtection Enabled https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/enable-network-protection https://docs.microsoft.com/mem/intune/protect/security-baseline-settings-defender-atp?pivots=atp-april-2020#microsoft-defender

Nice blog post on this: https://emptydc.com/2020/01/27/block-it/

Prerequisites Before trying out this feature, make sure you have the following:

Windows 10 Enterprise E5 license Access to Microsoft Defender Security Center portal Machines running Windows 10 Anniversary Update (version 1607) or later with the latest MoCAMP update (for Network Protection on Internet Explorer, Edge, Chrome, or Firefox) Machines running Windows 10 May 2019 Update (version 1903) or later (for a better user experience from SmartScreen on Edge). Note that if SmartScreen is not turned on, Network Protection will take over the blocking A valid license with a partner data provider

Sorry about Adam’s keyboard noise and yes, this could be a very short video but we felt like there are people who could use a more in-depth discussion.
