Microsoft Defender for Business

Add security to the various stages of your data work, on both computers and mobile devices. Reduce the security risks associated with endpoints and user identities, with fewer phishing and other scam messages and concerns such as devices falling into the wrong hands.

Microsoft Defender for Business helps you effectively block various security risks

Critical business data moves in the cloud, and protecting it at the endpoint and user level is essential. With various types of phishing and scams involving user IDs and endpoints on the rise, strong protection creates peace of mind and security for both the company’s IT infrastructure and its employees.

Mobile device protection, in particular, is very haphazard in many organisations – if you feel a twinge in your heart, Microsoft Defender for Business is probably the right service for you.

Microsoft Defender for Business is a service that protects both user identities and endpoints. And the best part: if you already have Microsoft 365 Business Premium, Defender for Business is already included in your contract!

The Microsoft 365 E3 license includes Defender for Endpoint P1. The E3 license can be extended if you want to use the most comprehensive version of the solution, the Defender for Endpoint P2 license.

What kind of company is Defender for Business right for?

We agree with the IT professionals interviewed in the IT 2024 survey: security belongs to everyone and should be developed in almost every company.

The reason is simple: every business is likely to be the target of a data breach or phishing attempt at some point. Obvious scam messages can be easy to ignore, but unfortunately, the devious ways of the crooks are getting more and more insidious.

Fortunately, security solutions are also evolving rapidly, with solutions from Microsoft, for example, providing effective and easy-to-implement protection for Windows and other operating systems.

What exactly is Microsoft Defender for Business?

It’s a security solution to protect your Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS devices in the cloud. It tells you in advance which devices or applications contain potential security threats and what you should do about them – even before anything bad happens.

Defender is powered by learning AI, so your business will also benefit from Microsoft’s extensive threat intelligence.

Microsoft Defender for Office 365 helps you protect your O365 cloud services

Defender for Endpoint, therefore, protects your organisation’s devices. In addition, it is also important to ensure the security of cloud services and to effectively block, for example, phishing attempts.

Defender for Office 365 provides extensive protection for cloud services in your Microsoft environment, including Teams, OneDrive, SharePoint and e-mail. It’s both a smart and extensive way to get your Office 365 security in order.

You can get Defender for Office 365 quickly: it takes about one day to get up and running, and it’s already included with your Microsoft 365 Business Premium license.

How fast can I start using Microsoft Defender for Business?

Typically, the implementation takes a few person-workdays. If you already have Intune device management in place, the implementation will take about two working days. The final amount of work and price depends on the whole: the number of devices and the initial situation. The Defender license is included with valid Microsoft 365 Business Premium subscriptions.
