Does WDAC work side by side Cortex XDR Pro on a fat client?

L4 Transporter

Hello dear community, 

as I know microsoft defender is deactivated by Cortex XDR Pro. 

Do you know, if it is possible to use WDAC side by side with Cortex XDR Pro? Is there a relationship between deactivated defender and wdac?

Hello Rob,

Thank you for writing to live community!

 

This is not recommended. You can disable Windows security center integration to make Windows Defender work using below settings:

But defender being the native OS AV will take charge of prevention actions in general. Hence, any anti-exploits module can create compatibility issues.

 

Hope this helps!

Hello @aspatil,

 

thank you for writing back. I don't want to activate defender, I want to activate MDAC/WDAC. Isn't it working without defender?
