Windows Defender Detection Notifications

Adam Matthews

To enable better reporting via RMM, it would be nice to enable notifications for Defender detections. Including those which are low-severity or automatically remediated.

Agreed! 100% would love to heave reports for any defender notifications.

I learned that PUA defender notifications are not reviewed by Huntress so it would be great to have automated email notifications or PSA notifications when there is a defender detection that is not reviewed so I can manually investigate. Although the best course of action would be for all detections to be reviewed by Huntress threat ops

Agreed here, we had a trojan blocked today but would have never known if we didnt happen to log in and browse the site....kind of a big miss to me that we could not know there was an attack if defender was the only one blocking/fighting it.

Seeing issues where the same detection is repeated on a daily basis and there is no alert. This really needs to be implemented.

Dan Parzanese: I’ve have the team look into this for you, but I’m willing to bet you’re benefiting from the human managed aspect of Managed Antivirus. We see false positives with all AVs and it wouldn’t surprise me to see the team isn’t bothering/creating more work for you.

Should hear a proper comment back here shortly ;)
