Defender for Endpoint issues on Apple Silicon Macs (Issue: Action Needed)
Hi y'all, We are using Defender for Endpoint on our Intel Macs without a hitch (both corp & BYOD devices). Now we are trying to have BYOD Apple Silicon Macs deployed with Defender for Endpoint. ...

Seems like the fix got released today, expect updates to roll out...
"Fixed a regression introduced in version 101.61.69 where the status menu icon was sometimes showing an error icon, even though no action was required from the end user"
Not in our organization. And we're running 12.3.1.
The only time the checkmark is there is when Defender gets installed initially for us. As soon as you reboot or get an update of it, it becomes an X.

pmonfette-ns Good day make sure to follow this article and primarily look at step# 7. You have to grant full access to sshd-keygen-wrapper, Microsoft Defender ATP & Microsoft Security Defender extensions.
Finally you have to run this Sudo bash -x MicrosoftDefenderATPOnboardingMacOs.sh.
I am confident your issue will be solved.

We are struggling with the constant Mac versus Windows battle and now Microsoft is dropping the ball and our Mac haters are on fire. Sigh. - Yes, can confirm this. Tried with affected MacBooks. The checkmark is back on all MacBooks with the latest version.
