Microsoft is previewing a new automatic device isolation capability in Defender for Endpoint’s auto attack disruption tool to help security pros contain cyber attacks in progress on their IT networks.
The company announced the capability earlier this month in a column about new features in Defender. There’s no word on when automatic device isolation will be in full production.
However, a new SANS Institute research paper warns that, in certain conditions, an attacker could leverage the new function to disable all user accounts.
The lesson, said Johannes Ullrich, the institute’s dean of research, is that autonomous AI action tools have to be tuned and tested like any other automation capability.
“Automatic isolation and attack disruption are not new concepts,” Ullrich said in an email, “but ideas like these have been used in the past in open source and commercial tools. This feature is most important in organizations with under-resourced IT security teams, as it automates attack respons

Microsoft is preparing to make a significant change to the Secure Boot system in Windows that will impact operations for both clients and servers.
In a nutshell: The Secure Boot certificates that Microsoft issued 15 years ago are being replaced by newer ones, with the older certificates set to expire beginning in June. To continue to receive the most up-to-date security protections for the Windows boot-up process, individual users and IT administrators alike need to make sure their Windows devices have the new Secure Boot certificates installed.
Have questions? Of course you do. Here are answers to eight key questions about the Secure Boot certificate updates.
What is Secure Boot?
Secure Boot is a security feature that verifies that all firmware-based software is signed by a trusted certificate when Windows starts up. If something doesn’t match, it gets blocked. This all happens immediately on boot, before Windows or anything else loads.
Secure Boot is a part of the UEFI firmware stand
