Tenant attach: Antivirus policy supports exclusions merge - When a tenant attached device is targeted with two or more antivirus policies, the settings for antivirus exclusions will merge before being applied to the client.

Cloud attach brings together Configuration Manager and Intune into a single console called Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center.

New CMG deployments use TLS 1.2 - Starting in this release, new deployments of the cloud management gateway (CMG) by default enable the option to Enforce TLS 1.2. This change doesn't affect existing deployments. While not recommended, if you need to use the less secure TLS protocol versions, you can still disable this option.
