2023-03-29MC How AffectTo enhance your endpoint security posture, tamper protection will soon be enabled by default in block mode. You can change your tamper protection settings by using a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution such as Intune (recommended), or by modifying settings manually on the Mac (not recommended) with the following command: "sudo mdatp config tamper-protection enforcement-level --value (chosen mode)"
You can also expect to see a banner notification when this update is rolled out.
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on macOS will start respecting the selection for tamper protection applied via the global tamper protection switch under advanced settings in security.microsoft.com. You can choose to enforce (block/audit/disable) your own macOS tamper protection settings by using a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution such as Intune (recommended). If the tamper protection setting was not enforced via MDM, a local administrator can continue to manually change the setting with the following command: "sudo mdatp config tamper-protection enforcement-level --value (chosen mode)"
You can also expect to see a banner notification when this update is rolled out.
