Windows: how Defender management works

On Windows, Cybermatic manages the Microsoft Defender engine that's already on the box.

  1. 1Supported: Windows 10 and 11, Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022, and 2025.
  2. 2In Active mode the agent keeps real-time protection ON — if something disables it, it's re-enabled within the hour and you'll see it in the device status.
  3. 3Defender's threat detections are collected, AI-triaged, and appear on Detections within 15 minutes of firing.
  4. 4Signature freshness and last-scan times show on each device row.
  5. 5No second antivirus is installed — no conflicts, no agents fighting over files.
