Microsoft[Announcement] Azure Defender integration with MDE for Windows Server 2019
StanislavBelov Hi Stanislav, is there any information on how this (technically) works? What are the components communicating? What about the MDE.Windows extension? etc. At this moment, I have several Windows Server 2019 with Azure Defender plan for Servers enabled. The MicrosoftMonitoringAgent extension has been rolled out automatically but the automatic onboarding to Defender for Endpoint doesn't seem to start. Even after waiting 24 hours. When I browse to https://securitycenter.windows.com/ it simply says 'Your subscription has expired'. Unfortunately, with the current documentation, I can't tell where this goes wrong and how to troubleshoot. Do you have any input or guidance on this?
MicrosoftHi Gertjan,
From my experience once integration is enabled and the first server gets onboarded to ASC, the MDE tenant gets provisioned and it might take sometimes longer than 24h before you can access the MDE portal. I have seen that error myself several times especially with newly (trial) created subscriptions. Just give it some more time. If it still does not work after 2-3 days please raise a support ticket.
Gertjan Jongeneel this issue still happens, any news?
