Microsoft Corporation continues to actively implement its software products on “foreign” platforms, including macOS. Starting today, Windows Defender ATP (Windows Defender ATP) antivirus application became available to users of Apple computers. Of course, the name of the antivirus had to be changed - on macOS it is called Microsoft Defender ATP.
True, within the limited preview period, only enterprises using not only Apple computers, but also PCs running the Windows operating system will be able to get Microsoft Defender. The fact is that in order to apply for participation in the program, you must be a Microsoft 365 subscriber and provide an ID, which can be found in the Windows Defender Security Center. Compatible macOS versions are Mojave, High Sierra, and Sierra.
The dedicated application web page says that the company is recruiting a small group to participate in the pre-evaluation. Those registrants who are selected as participants will receive an email notification. Jared Spataro, Vice President for Office and Windows Products at Microsoft, said that Microsoft's success on third-party platforms began with the Office suite, and the company is currently developing this idea. Recall that Windows Defender is the default antivirus in the Windows 10 operating system.
