SDSM isn't the only thing that Microsoft has been cooking up for Mac users, with an announcement released on August 25 confirming that Defender for Endpoint has now been updated to include native support for M1 Macs and Apple silicon, so users won't be forced to use the Rosetta 2 emulator to use the software. There's still a great deal of testing that needs to occur within Insider channels before it becomes generally available on macOS, but if you're particularly keen then you can try out the current version of Super Duper Secure Mode on the Microsoft Insider Canary branch. Microsoft hopes Super Duper Secure Mode will be ”something that changes the modern exploit landscape and significantly raises the cost of exploitation for attackers”. Despite this, Microsoft is planning to allow its users to control the feature and where it can be applied in a future update. Super Duper Secure Mode may sound like a name that was made up on the spot, and Microsoft notes that it will likely change to something a little more 'professional' in the future, but the feature has been present on Windows devices for some time, and is already live for testing in Edge Beta, Dev, and Canary (albeit behind an experimental flag).Īs mentioned in the above tweet from Johnathan Norman, the feature will be disabled by default for all Edge Insiders on a handful of websites like FaceBook and YouTube due to issues where SDSM is causing them to break.
