Defender for endpoint 2

Hi,

 

We have assigned our users the Defender for Endpoint 2 license and also configured Endpoint Security Antivirus on Endpoint Manager. Does defender for Endpoint 2 licence conflict with Endpoint Security Antivirus or do they work together?

 

  • Hi,
    No it will not conflict. Once the devices are onboarded to the Endpoint for Defender portal, you can directly manage the devices from there and because you already have the Endpoint Manager for some policies (I assumes), those will also continue to work without a conflict.
    With the Plan 2 license you will get more features for MDE management.
