Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management Reviews

I usually use it in Defender for endpoint side, such as within the 365 Defender umbrella, Defender for Vulnerability Management. 

I onboard devices of the organization with the help of Intune or MDM Management. I take care of scanning and doing vulnerability assessments, looking for any future or upcoming vulnerabilities on the devices for the endpoint perspective. 

Additionally, I use the attack surface reduction rules to take care of Defender for endpoint security.

The most valuable aspect is the kind of assessment results I get, and the recommendations provided in Microsoft products really help in taking care of the resources. I can fix vulnerabilities and see the current state of the security posture of those devices or particular resources. The recommendations, scores, and steps to remediate actions are highly useful.

The typical use case for Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management is that my clients need to know about cybersecurity frameworks such as NIST 800-53 or SOC Type 3, Type 2, which includes Vulnerability Management. In our customer environment, they use most of their products from Microsoft, particularly the Vulnerability Management engine to find out vulnerable information.

Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management provides us with CV information regarding which CV is currently associated with the devices, and it shows us the recommended plan, along with vulnerabilities and remediation options, which is one of my favorite parts.

My clients usually have M365 E5 subscriptions, which include Defender for Endpoint Plan 2, making it clear that they utilize Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management.

The main use cases for Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management among my customers are endpoint protection, identity protection, and vulnerability assessment of software.

My customers mostly use this tool in the IT and ITES industries.

The most useful feature in Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management is asset discovery.

Regarding Threat Intelligence in Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management, people should subscribe separately as it is an add-on. I have not applied it to Threat Intelligence but we refer to it as vulnerability exploits; CV priority will be present.

The main advantage of Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management is that it can locate and prevent most threats even when the endpoints are not connected to the corporate network, as long as the internet is available.

Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management is capable of continuously monitoring and assessing vulnerabilities without requiring periodic scans.

Risk prioritization in Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management will be very useful for large organizations and large deployments because they prioritize the risk, allowing me to apply the patches in a very structured and more important way. I can keep the less important patches on hold for a time period, but for most important, critical patches, the risk is prioritized, and I will be able to address that first.

The benefits my customers have gained from Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management include a single point of visibility of entire risk exposure, complete assessment of risk assessment from the cloud, real-time assessment, and the ability to immediately remediate the risk by applying patches.

I am using Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management for integration purposes with Office 365. I am utilizing multiple executive products, and the integration with Microsoft makes it easy to manage.

A valuable feature is the ease of management and integration with Microsoft products. I appreciate that I can click on a server in the Defender Console, notice a risk, and retrieve all necessary information. Speed is a key feature as it is very quick to administer and allows for manual configuration from the portal.

I handle security, and Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management assesses our systems, applications, virtual machines, laptops, operating systems, Linux, Unix, and network devices 24/7. It checks if packages and applications are up to date and notifies us of vulnerabilities.

Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management is versatile and assesses vulnerabilities, providing detailed information on CVEs, their categories, and exploit statuses. It automatically notifies my teams and me about vulnerabilities via email. Additionally, it closes alerts with justifications based on historical data, thanks to integrated AI capabilities.

Cybersecurity, threat intelligence, and vulnerability protection are critical to my business. I implemented this solution to ensure I have the best protection for my endpoints.

The integration with Sentinel has been one of the most valuable features for my organization. It helps streamline my operations and enhance my security posture significantly.

We use Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management to improve our security posture. We are Microsoft partners, which provides us with special privileges and discounts.

Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management provides regular advisories and recommendations that help improve our security posture. It offers steps to configure changes, like applying conditional access for new staff based on their activity. The advisory feature is beneficial as it tells us how to improve security by recommending specific actions.
