Ransomware Protection and Rollback
Behavior Monitoring and Machine Learning
Single management console
Incident response automation
Targeted attack detection
Enhanced Tamper Protection
Suspicious Behavior Detection
Advanced Deep Learning mechanism

Threat Protection:

Atomically submit malware samples

 

If you could share a documentation where I can see these features, I will truly appreciate it.

Yes to all of the above, but note that some features will also depend on the license (E3 vs E5) type that you purchase. You and your users will get a lot more security tooling and available options if you have the E5 license.

M365Maps.com is your friend in getting a decent look at the tooling and available options to you depending on the license you require. Here is a link to the P1 vs P2 options (visual guide)

Also, here is the Microsoft documentation on MDE (Microsoft Defender for Endpoint)
