how to enable MDE in security.microsoft.com - missing menu
Hi there, I have an E5+Security license but I don't see the menu for MDE in security.microsoft.com > Settings There should be an 'Endpoints' menu in this list, yes? Licenses assigned to ...
Update:
Defender for Endpoints is part of the M365 E5 license bundle, see here:

felix is correct, the EMS E5 license doesn't include it, see here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/microsoft-365/enterprise-mobility-security/compare-plans-and-pricing
(tip: if your current license cost is around $20 per user, then you likely don't have Defender for Endpoint.)
The menu doesn't show up immediately in the security.microsoft.com portal but once you've clicked on some of the menus you'll get some 'setting things up..' pages and shortly afterwards it should show up.
