Hello, I would like to ask about the availability and licensing model for the full version of Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence (MDTI) in my tenant.

  1. When will the full MDTI experience be available for use in my tenant?

  3. If I already have Microsoft 365 E5, will any additional steps or actions be required on my side to enable or activate the full MDTI features?
