Microsoft Intune connection

Am I missing license? Also, we have another EDR and don't have any plan to use Defender for endpoint but seeing this option in MDE, what's the benefit and how will this help with MDI.

    The connection with Intune service is needed if you plan to leverage risk signal from Defender on to Intune managed devices.

      does this take into account conditional policies and evaluate risk based detections

        Yes it does once you enable evaluation of MDE risk as part of device compliance policies in Intune.
