Windows Defender is a free anti-malware tool from Microsoft which can be used to improve your computer system security.

Windows Defender Antivirus is an antimalware solution that provides security and virus protection. Every Azure Stack infrastructure component (Hyper-V hosts and virtual machines) is protected with Windows Defender Antivirus. For up-to-date protection, you need periodic updates to Windows Defender Antivirus definitions, engine, and platform. How updates are applied depends on your configuration.

Connected scenario

The Azure Stack Hub update resource provider downloads antimalware definitions and engine updates multiple times per day. Each Azure Stack infrastructure component gets the update from the update resource provider and applies the update automatically.

Microsoft Defender For Windows 10

For those Azure Stack Hub deployments that are connected to the public Internet, apply the monthly Azure Stack update. The monthly Azure Stack Hub update includes Windows Defender Antivirus platform updates for the month.

Disconnected scenario

For those Azure Stack Hub deployments that are not connected to the public Internet (e.g. air-gapped data centers), starting with the 1910 release, customers have the ability to apply the antimalware definitions and engine updates as they are published.

To apply the updates to your Azure Stack Hub solution, you first have to download them from the Microsoft site (links below) and subsequently, import them into a storage blob container under your updateadminaccount. A scheduled task scans the blob container every 30 minutes and, if new Defender definitions and engine updates are found, it applies them to the Azure Stack Hub infrastructure.

For those disconnected deployments that are not yet on 1910 or later, or that don't have the ability to download Defender definitions and engine updates on a daily basis, the monthly Azure Stack Hub update includes Windows Defender Antivirus definitions, engine, and platform updates for the month.
