Microsoft Intune and Microsoft Defender work together to help secure your organization’s data while ensuring employee productivity. Join this session to learn about using Intune to pre-emptively deploy Endpoint Security policies, efficiently detect threats within your organization across multiple platforms, and onboard devices with Defender to enable the security signals needed to do all of the above.
This session is part of the Microsoft Technical Takeoff: Windows + Intune. Add it to your calendar, RSVP for event reminders, and post your questions and comments below! This session will also be recorded and available on demand shortly after conclusion of the live event. |

How did we do on our Technical Takeoff Day 1 sessions? Please take this 2-minute survey and let us know your thoughts on this event.
- Paul_WoodwardIron ContributorQuestion. We are using the "MEMAC > Endpoint Security > Manage" space to create policy for AV, Bitlocker encryption, Firewall, etc. Then we are told to use the Security Baselines. Clearly there is massive overlap, and thus conflict, between these sets of policies. Clearly it's not sensible to use both. In my view the Security Baselines are less good, because so many settings in one policy makes them hard to test/troubleshoot. The smaller "Endpoint Security" policies are easier to maintain. But what should we be doing??
- nmidlaneCopper ContributorAgree Paul. Would really help for an overview of when to use MEM Policies, when to use security baselines and when to use the new endpoint security configurations
- LauraArrizza
Microsoft
The guidance is to first use Security Baselines to leverage the built-in setting recommendations that come from security experts across Windows, Defender for Endpoint, Edge, and Windows 365. After deploying the customized Security Baseline policy, you can use Endpoint Security policy templates that span across categories like AV, Firewall, ASR etc. to complement baselines with missing settings that are specific to the scope of security you're looking for. From there, you can leverage the Settings Catalog to add additional settings using the picker experience. We also surface Administrative Templates for settings that may still be need to be added but not available via the other methods. In terms of viewing and addressing conflicts, we have reports to help identify where you may have overlapping settings targeted. Reports like "Assignment failures" and "Device configuration" and the per policy reports allow you to drill down and understand where conflicts may be occurring. Make sure to check out some of the other Ignite sessions for specific discussions on deploying policy across the methods we offer!

Aasawari and I will be checking the discussion channel and replying via the comments section today and through the week!
- Paul_WoodwardIron ContributorGiven these presentations are short, why no Q&A at the end??

We’re happy you’re here with us at the Microsoft Technical Takeoff! Whether you are attending one session or many, please take this 2-minute survey and let us know your thoughts on this event.
- psionCopper ContributorHow does Defender for Endpoint integrate with Defender for Cloud and Sentinel?
- LauraArrizza
Microsoft
You can read up on information related to integrations with Defender for Endpoint with Defender for Cloud and Microsoft Sentinel here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/sentinel/microsoft-365-defender-sentinel-integration and https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/defender-for-cloud/integration-defender-for-endpoint?tabs=windows
- jvanhornCopper ContributorA great question came up. If Az AD is required for MDE but its not supported to Hybrid Join a Domain Controller using Azure AD Sync, how do you complete the requirement and still protect end to end on servers with Domain Controller role?
- LauraArrizza
Microsoft
Currently, devices are not supported to complete a Hybrid Join to Azure Active Directory. Since an Azure Active Directory trust is required, domain controllers aren't currently supported. We're looking at ways to add this support.
- MartinHimkenBrass ContributorIs it planned to bring the ASR rules to MDE management as well (because this isn’t possible on Windows Servers right now)
- LauraArrizza
Microsoft
Yes! The Attack Surface Reduction (ASR) Rules policy template is coming to have support with our Security Settings Management for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint solution. You can use targeting through the policy creation wizard to assign the settings to your device & user groups, which is applicable to Windows 10, 11 and Server platforms.
