MicrosoftMicrosoft Defender ATP now in preview on Windows 10 Enterprise multi-session
We are happy to announce on Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (MDATP) support on Windows Virtual Desktop enabling both single and multi-session scenarios.
The support for Multi-use...
Thanks - apologies as MDATP is a new product and I am yet to get my trial activation email - so not really skilled in understanding how it works on physical devices.
What if we put the session host in Azure Security Center - I believe VM protection in Azure Security covers MDATP? Would that cover all user sessions connecting to the host?
Its all a bit confusing!!

Microsoftlimaecho No worries, we are happy to help. Once the device (or VM) is enrolled all users that connect benefit from MDATP. This can be through MDATP or ASC.
The Microsoft Defender for Endpoints (FKA Microsoft Defender ATP) licensing is getting quite complex now. Just to confirm, what would be valid options for WVD:
- Per user (for up to five concurrent devices):
- Windows 10 Enterprise E5
- Windows 10 Education A5
- Microsoft 365 E5 (M365 E5) which includes Windows 10 Enterprise E5
- Microsoft 365 E5 Security
- Microsoft 365 A5 (M365 A5)
- Microsoft Defender for Endpoints standalone retail (via CSP)
Per server (Session Host? --> also valid for WVD multi-session, up to 25 users??)
- Azure Security Center Standard plan (per node)
- Microsoft Defender for Servers, one per covered Server (via CSP + extra license requirement for a minimum of 50 licenses for products like Windows 10 E5 / Microsoft 365 E5 / Microsoft 365 E5 Security etc.)
Can someone comment on this? Thanks!
