The book covers the Defender 365 suite from Defender for Endpoint to Defender for Office 365 with a pitstop to Defender for Vulnerabilities and integration with Sentinel providing how-to guides to implement the solutions, best practices and notes from the field. You will basically learn all about Microsoft 365 Security offering. Each chapter is enriched with simple and precise description of the different settings, screenshots, scripts, KQL queries and concluded by a small quiz to reinforce the learning. Who should benefit from this book?This is only for the chosen ones 😜. If you are a Security professional, using or planning to migrate to M365 ecosystem, student or IT professional - in short everyone - this book is for you! What you would get from tens of hours of documentation review and research is resumed in a single comprehensive book. This is, in my opinion, a clear evidence of Ru and Viktor experience and knowledge and a must have in your library!👏

As a Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) for Office Apps and Services, and from the beginning user and implementer of Office 365 (today Microsoft 365), I like to read materials written by colleagues related to services related to my field of activity and work. This book is one of them.A short section of the Defender's history, i.e. how the names and services changed. These often changes can confuse administrators and even more users and project sponsors who find it difficult to keep track of licensing, financial costs and value for money of such Cloud services.Some options and features are known from the past, the book mentions them and it is not bad to repeat the material or compare your knowledge with the materials in the book. By constantly changing the name of the product, as well as adding many options within the product, I recommend careful reading as well as applying the examples from the book. Here I am referring to deploying Defender for Office 365. Anyone who has used Office 365 before will recognize the service under a new name.The constant upgrade of the service is a challenge, so the book is an indispensable material for every administrator, security guard, as well as for people who want to know more.Useful are, examples for a Full Cloud environment, as well as for a hybrid environment. Examples and scripts will help you.There are beneficial PowerShell and KQL scripts that you can easily apply following the book's content.Setting up and managing Defender for Identity was the most interesting for me. The readers of the book will find bits of advice related to product licensing, as these options are often neglected in practice. Service accounts and roles are carefully explained through each chapter because Zero Trust - Less Privilege is a very important consideration when implementing security.In addition to what I mentioned above, I often use Secure Score to help solidify the security procedures and features found within M365 and Defender. The book contains one chapter related to Secure Score. The indispensable Sentinel was also mentioned, which, if you want to know more about, see the other Packt books where it is covered in more detail.In the endThrough the material, I especially liked the short quiz at the end of each chapter, as well as the accompanying links for those who want to know more.The book is a great help and I recommend it.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
