Microsoft Defender ATP Servers Licensing
Hi, I have gone through the below article but still am confused on the licensing model for servers if I need to onboard them on MDATP. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/security/threat-prote...
AFAIK, the M365 Security license is for clients only. For servers, you need to standalone license or onboard them to ASC
Thijs Lecomte Yes, that was my understanding as well.
However recently I raised ticket with Microsoft Support to confirm on the same and a guy from the Convergys (Microsoft vendor) who was assigned the ticket told me that licensing for servers will be covered under Volume License pack of M365 E5. Not sure if this is correct.
- I would double check with your Microsoft account manager just to be sure.
Otherwise, document that ticket in order to 'cover your **bleep**' later.
I don't think that's correct, but I am not a licensing expert so don't quote me on itThijs Lecomte Yeah will need to check with someone from Microsoft only.
