[MrJgd]

Great explanation. Thank you Andy Malone.

[alaminnegash]

[heirsofgodmandate]

hey Andy, Thanks for serving us with your skillset. Please can you do a video on MDO?

[mmiltenburg]

Andy, nice overview. One little tip: mind the use of the word 'again'.
(You don't want to count the number of times you say 'again')

[SuperWinning]

Good video. I follow your video a lot.
Could you make a video to show how to manage/Create Metrics for Alert in Defender for Endpoint?

[syednawazayan]

Hi Andy
Thanks for the Video
Do we need to install an Agent on Device to get the logs and Alerts in Windows Defender Endpoints Console?

[sirduverville]

good explanation for Microsoft 365 Defender, would you consider a video for exclusion configuration and how to manage exclusions in MS 365 Defender?

Hello thank you, taking time to explain this. I'm still a little confused though. For someone like myself who has a small office setup. How or what would be the best practice of using and administering Mircrosoft Defender per machine?

[NecroMorrius]

Thanks did the excellent video. I have recently moved to E5 licensing and I’m invested in switching on defender for Endpoint. However I have several thousand devices already enrolled in endpoint manager. When I turn on the connection between endpoint manager and defender for endpoint will that cause any problems with my current devices? it implies it will start using the defender metrics for threat level, and we do have conditional access policies tied to threat level.

Does this apply to domain joined computers? Can I use this if we don't intend to go hybrid joined the computers yet?

[AnwarKhan-bzjt]

Hi Andy, Looks like there are couple of changes since last year. Could you please make an updated video ?

[vegasjosejavier]

Hey Andy, happy new year! I was trying to test M365 enterprise E5 but it doesn't seem to be a trial for that... only for M365 business plans. I remember you provided a link once, was it for enterprise or for business plans?

[djelieattieh]

Hello thanks for the video, the defender for endpoint should be installed on all devices in the organization?

[bobcd]

should Defender or any endpoint be part of a home users internet security now?

[JustSaying]

It could also help if you can explain how licensing is applied. Like is this per user or per device? Thanks Andy

[MrJsysco]

Can you run Defender without Azure or cloud access? Thanks!

How to remove an android Device from ms defender?

[andrewford]

Great video, it's a real shame that MS moves shit around and rebrands so often that these videos quickly become out of date.
