• Microsoft Defender ATP for Linux is now generally available

    From OSnews@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jul 5 11:18:52 2020
    To meet our customers where they are and relieve customer challenges in managing multiple security solutions to protect their unique range of platforms and products, we have been working to extend the richness of Microsoft Defender ATP to non-Windows
    platforms. Today we are excited to announce general availability of Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) for Linux!
    Adding Linux into the existing selection of natively supported platforms by Microsoft Defender ATP marks an important moment for all our customers. It makes Microsoft Defender Security Center a truly unified surface for monitoring and managing security
    of the full spectrum of desktop and server platforms that are common across enterprise environments (Windows, Windows Server, macOS, and Linux).

    Defender ATP is an enterprise product, so this news doesn';t mean the end-user program that ships with Windows is coming to Linux. Still, seeing Microsoft embracing Linux left, right, and centre is still a weird sight for someone who still hasn';t
    forgiven Microsoft for their role in killing any chances of BeOS catching on.

    I';m still bitter over that one.
