few ways you can check, in the Microsoft 365 Defender portal
Check to see if there are any alerts being generated by the Defender for identity by filtering by "detection source" and "MDI"
Check the advanced Hunting section to view the Identityinfo, IdentityLogonEvents, IdentityqueryEvents and IdentityDirectoryEvents if you are receiving information that's another sign that its working
Check Settings > Identities > Sensors Tab > check health of your sensors
Check Settings > Identities > Health Issues > check for health alerts
If logging isnt present when you query the advanced hunting table, then I would say u have some issues
It also could be if config has been applied correctly, you have a very quiet environment (which is a good thing)

After implementing this, our users are complaining opening network files such as adobe and excel is very slow. Have you experience this? Please advise.

Never experienced slow connectivity, do you have by chance a network engineer who can inspect the traffic ingress/egress?

- hatommy118Sep 25, 2023Copper ContributorRunning the below commands doesn't trigger any alerts, while doing the simulations of an attack. Any ideas why this is?
