Hi @Chris_Jones, & Milad Aslaner,

Has there been any clarification on the Licensing costs for running MDATP on Servers either onPrem or in AWS or Azure?

My simple take on this discussion is that they need to be attached/registered/monitored by ASC to be valid?

And if a Customer is already using MDATO either via M365 E5 or has Windows 10 E5 licenses then they need to check with their account rep to get a "deal"?

Is this the case? Just trying to simplify it for a customer at this end...

Regards,

Dave C
