Jan 29, 2013 Yes you read that correctly! Up until recently, there was no way to open a Microsoft Access database directly on a Mac. However, there are, at the time of writing, five apps, all available from the Mac App Store, which allow you to open and view data in Access database tables. Below is a summary of the apps. 2018-1-15 目前来说，macOS和Microsoft都没有提供一个单独的软件能够像Access for Windows那样的集成化全功能软件编辑Access数据库。根据需求不同，可能可以使用下面的两种方式读取Access数据： 在Mac上第三方的软件一般都是只能读取Access的数据，而不能.
This topic describes how to install, configure, update, and use Microsoft Defender ATP for Mac.
Caution
Running other third-party endpoint protection products alongside Microsoft Defender ATP for Mac is likely to lead to performance problems and unpredictable side effects. If non-Microsoft endpoint protection is an absolute requirement in your environment, you can still safely take advantage of MDATP for Mac EDR functionality after configuring MDATP for Mac antivirus functionality to run in Passive mode.

Installation instructions
There are several methods and deployment tools that you can use to install and configure Microsoft Defender ATP for Mac.

Command-line tool:
System requirements
The three most recent major releases of macOS are supported.
- 10.15 (Catalina), 10.14 (Mojave), 10.13 (High Sierra)
- Disk space: 650 MB
Beta versions of macOS are not supported. macOS Sierra (10.12) support ended on January 1, 2020.
After you've enabled the service, you may need to configure your network or firewall to allow outbound connections between it and your endpoints.
Network connections
The following table lists the services and their associated URLs that your network must be able to connect to. You should ensure that there are no firewall or network filtering rules that would deny access to these URLs, or you may need to create an allow rule specifically for them.
| Service location | DNS record |
|---|---|
| Common URLs for all locations | x.cp.wd.microsoft.com cdn.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com eu-cdn.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com wu-cdn.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com officecdn-microsoft-com.akamaized.net crl.microsoft.com events.data.microsoft.com |
| European Union | europe.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com eu-v20.events.data.microsoft.com usseu1northprod.blob.core.windows.net usseu1westprod.blob.core.windows.net |
| United Kingdom | unitedkingdom.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com uk-v20.events.data.microsoft.com ussuk1southprod.blob.core.windows.net ussuk1westprod.blob.core.windows.net |
| United States | unitedstates.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com us-v20.events.data.microsoft.com ussus1eastprod.blob.core.windows.net ussus1westprod.blob.core.windows.net |
Microsoft Defender ATP can discover a proxy server by using the following discovery methods:
- Web Proxy Auto-discovery Protocol (WPAD)
- Manual static proxy configuration
If a proxy or firewall is blocking anonymous traffic, make sure that anonymous traffic is permitted in the previously listed URLs.
To test that a connection is not blocked, open https://x.cp.wd.microsoft.com/api/report and https://cdn.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com/ping in a browser.
If you prefer the command line, you can also check the connection by running the following command in Terminal:
The output from this command should be similar to the following:
OK https://x.cp.wd.microsoft.com/api/report
OK https://cdn.x.cp.wd.microsoft.com/ping
Caution
We recommend that you keep System Integrity Protection (SIP) enabled on client machines. SIP is a built-in macOS security feature that prevents low-level tampering with the OS, and is enabled by default.
Once Microsoft Defender ATP is installed, connectivity can be validated by running the following command in Terminal:
