Can this skill be used with third-party antivirus software?

No, this skill is specifically designed for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. Note that Defender often enters passive mode when a third-party AV is detected, which may disable some features.

How can I avoid blocking legitimate business applications?

The skill provides instructions for using 'Audit mode' to monitor the impact of rules before switching to 'Block mode,' allowing you to identify necessary exclusions.

What are Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) rules?

ASR rules are security settings that block specific behaviors commonly used by malware, such as Office applications launching child processes or scripts executing obfuscated code.

Does it support enterprise deployment via Intune?

Yes, the skill includes detailed deployment paths for Intune, covering ASR profiles, Antivirus profiles, and Endpoint Protection configurations.
