Question about licensing ATP

Hello,

 

I have a question, maybe stupid, about licensing of ATP. 

I have "Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection" licenses, applied to users.

But i deploy ATP with SCCM on Devices

 

So i do not really understand how it work for licences.

 

If i deploy it on all my devices, but give licenses only on some users, what will happend ?

 

And if i give a licenses to a user but don't deploy it on his device ?

 

thank you 🙂

Have a nice day !

    AFAIK, SCCM doesn't check for any license on the device.
    So there is no monitoring, but you have to check your licenses for your license agreemen

      Thijs Lecomte thank you for your answer ! 🙂

       

      So if i understand well, there is no check.

      So it's on me to be careful to not overcomit.

       

      If i have for exemple 100 licenses, put this 100 licences over 100 users, but deploy it on 150 computers, it will work on the 150 computers, bu i will be out of legal terms, am i right ?
