This video shows how Microsoft Defender helps disrupt active attacks, provide customizable telemetry, and simplify secure deployment across diverse environments. Watch the video to see how you can protect critical assets more effectively.
What is Microsoft Defender endpoint protection?
Microsoft Defender endpoint protection is a security solution designed to help organizations protect their devices, users, and critical assets from modern cyberattacks. It focuses on simplifying endpoint security while strengthening protection.
With Microsoft Defender, you can:
- Defend critical assets during an attack using attack disruption capabilities that proactively intervene when suspicious activity is detected.
- Protect a diverse device estate with deployment options that are designed to be both simplified and secure, even in complex environments.
- Gain better visibility into what’s happening on your endpoints through customizable telemetry data collection.
In short, it helps you rethink how you secure endpoints by combining strong protection with easier management.
How does attack disruption in Microsoft Defender work?
Attack disruption in Microsoft Defender is designed to help your team respond faster and more effectively when an attack is underway.
During an active incident, Defender can:
- Proactively defend critical assets by detecting malicious behavior and taking automated actions to contain or block it.
- Limit attacker movement across your environment by disrupting suspicious processes and connections before they spread further.
- Support incident response by surfacing relevant telemetry and alerts so your security team can quickly understand what’s happening and what to do next.
This approach helps you reimagine incident handling—from purely reactive to more proactive and automated defense.
What makes deployment and telemetry in Microsoft Defender different?
Microsoft Defender is built to make endpoint protection easier to roll out and manage, especially in organizations with a wide range of devices.
Key benefits include:
- Simplified, secure deployment: Defender is designed to be deployed efficiently across diverse estates, helping you onboard endpoints without adding unnecessary complexity.
- Customizable telemetry data collection: You can tailor what telemetry is collected from endpoints, giving you flexibility to balance visibility, performance, and compliance needs.
- Better operational insight: With the right telemetry in place, your security and IT teams gain clearer insight into endpoint activity, which supports faster detection and response.
Together, these capabilities help you reshape how you manage endpoint security—from initial rollout to ongoing monitoring and improvement.
