Hi Doug,

At LeTourneau we do have cloud protection enabled (what MS used to call MAPS, 
https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/microsoftsecure/2015/01/14/maps-in-the-cloud-how-can-it-help-your-enterprise/). We 
also have a limited rollout of Windows Defender Exploit Guard Network Protection which similarly helps. Jose, over at 
IU mentioned WDEG in his email to the SECURITY list from this past Monday.

However, I was unable to download the test file linked because we have a SonicWall with Gateway Antivirus that appears 
to have blocked it before it ever made it down to the client :)

Hi All,

Have you tested SCEP cloud protection which is enabled in antimalware policies?

If SCEP cloud protection was working correctly you would not have been able to download the file.

In my testing it only worked correctly once. But three other times I was able to download the file.

Please download the test file from here using Chrome and see if Defender detects it.

Hi there,

This is my first post and am asking for insight.
SCEP supports the following policies for protection.

  *   Antimalware Policies
  *   Windows Defender FireWall Policies
  *   Windows Defender Exploit Guard
  *   Windows Defender Application Guard
I'm just now testing deployment of antimalware policies and have started internet research on the others listed above.

I would like to know if others have deployed any of the SCEP solution in a managed manner. Also I would like to share 
questions and thoughts about the solution as well.

Thanks,
Doug
