Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint

It's endpoint protection tool looks after us from virus protection and malware, etcetera. And that's pretty much it really.

Pros

  • It doesn't slow down your machine when it's working. That's sort of the main thing that it does really well.

Cons

  • I'd like to see it extract threat intel from more than one source.
  • Obviously level of cybersecurity gets increased, so your business objectives should be met without any downtime. You don't want to get breached, you want to have a problem, you want to control brand, reputation, etcetera. So this a positive for business objective.
  • Other
Part of an SOE. So it's rolled out anyway, so you've got to use it. So that's pretty much it. It works well on the Microsoft ecosystems
Pretty much using the device level there, using it for malware scanning, rent, food detection, and endpoint detection response.
I'm in my lab five at the moment and it does Macs that it does with Microsoft.
