What is Microsoft Defender for Endpoint?

Presented as an epicenter for comprehensive endpoint security, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint helps users rapidly stop attacks, scale security resources, and evolve defenses across operating systems and network devices.

Rapidly stops threats: Protects against sophisticated threats such as ransomware and nation-state attacks.

Scales security: Puts time back in the hands of defenders to prioritize risks and elevate the organization's security posture.

Evolves the organization's defenses: Goes beyond endpoint silos and mature the organization's security based on a foundation for extended detection and response (XDR) and Zero Trust.
