During Microsoft Ignite, Microsoft announced Defender ATP EDR capabilities for Mac is available in preview.

It’s great to see Microsoft extends the EDR capabilities to cross-platform

1. **Rich investigation experience **– including machine timeline, process creation, file creation, network connections and, of course, the popular Advanced Hunting.
2. **Optimized performance** – enhanced CPU utilization in compilation procedures and large software deployments.
3. **In-context AV detections** – just like with Windows, get insight into where a threat came from and how the malicious process or activity was created.
