How to add exclusion in M365 defender for Paths and any URL's to download an executables to deploy/install the apps via Intune and Defender?

Also wanted to add URL like this https:\cdn.xxxx.xxxx.xxxxx to download the apps from the respective providers site/domain on devices via running the script on device.

    Hi You can do this in Microsoft defender Endpoint from going to Settings> Endpoints> Rules > Then select Automation folder Exclusions. See the image belowendpoint -folder exclusions

    You can also do this from intune using policies. - Here is a link https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/configure-exclusions-microsoft-defender-antivirus?view=o365-worldwide#create-a-new-antivirus-policy-with-exclusions-in-intune
