Are there free trial versions of Defender for evaluation/training?

Copper Contributor

Hey everyone,

 

Just making a post to get some info regarding this. I am wanting to play around with defender potentially using a Azure Virtual machine to practise deployment and configuration of Defender on a server as well as playing around with credential guard. I'm also wanting to do this to learn how to ingest Defender logs into Splunk.

 

Does Microsoft offer free trial licenses for this purpose?

 

Thanks for any info!

Assuming you mean Defender for Endpoint, anyone with an Azure tenant, AFAIK, can run a 30 day free trial. I don't think that included MDE for servers though.
