Event details
Hello, can you please give me a tip about licenses? If I have a customer with the following infrastructure (just an example):
- 2 DomainControllers
- 4 MemberServer
- 8 ServiceAccounts
- 16 Users
How many licenses do I need? How can I use them and for which object/user?
Thank You
- To be fully compliant with licensing, you need a Defender for Identity license for each human being protected in the environment. This could be with an M365 E5 license, M365 E5 Security license, or standalone Defender for Identity license. In your example, it would be 16 licenses - but please check with your license vendor if you have more specific questions, as this is purely based on my interpretation on the data you've provided 🙂
when the customer has no E5 security subscription you probably need 16 🙂 stand alone SKU for MDI
- If the customer want to use E5. How to deply the license to the DC's?
- You do not need to apply them, just be sure you are compliant
