Microsoft Security Operations Analyst Associate SC-200 Practice Question
You administer Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) for Contoso. All corporate laptops are onboarded, but you suspect that several Windows Server computers connected to the same subnets are still unmanaged. You want MDE to identify these computers by passively listening to network traffic from onboarded devices and list them in the device inventory with the status Unmanaged. In the Microsoft 365 Defender portal, which capability should you turn on?
The capability that discovers unmanaged devices by analyzing network traffic observed from already-onboarded endpoints is called Endpoint discovery (also referred to in the portal as Network discovery). When the feature is enabled under Settings > Endpoints > Discovery, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint inspects traffic such as ARP, DHCP, DNS, and NetBIOS to find devices that are not yet onboarded and adds them to the inventory with the Unmanaged tag. Other features such as Attack surface reduction rules, Live response, and Threat & Vulnerability Management perform different security functions and do not discover devices that lack the MDE sensor.
