Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on Mac is Retiring Support of MacOS Catalina
Microsoft Defender for Endpoint on Mac is retiring support for macOS Catalina (10.15) due to the release of a newer version of macOS later this year. As a result, organizations with macOS devices in their environments should ensure that any devices still running Catalina are updated to a more recent version to avoid losing protection. The change will take effect after mid-December, and any macOS Catalina devices running Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (Mac) will remain protected until the agent expiration, but will fail to update and log an error in /Library/Logs/Microsoft/autoupdate.log. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint currently supports macOS versions Ventures (13), Monterey (12), and Big Sur (11). Stay up-to-date with incremental changes across versions of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint by monitoring the "What's new on Mac" page.
