I've bought an electronic version. Really, it's a lot of details that you can't get in the official documentation, many interesting ideas, points. Musthave for security administrator/consultant.

My initial thoughts when reading the book were that it's a fountain of MDE knowledge and can cater to both beginners interested in MDE and experts interested in other ideas/tips for configuring MDE.I particularly enjoyed the book's two sections on Understanding Endpoint Detection and Response, which explore the components of EDR and its enhanced features. The section on Managing and Maintaining the Security Posture allows the book to be a continuous reference point for maintaining your MDE environment and continuously monitoring its health.In conclusion, it's a great book; if you're looking for a book on Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, buy it :)

Rather than a cookie cutter approach that merely defines the process of implementing various settings and rules, this book starts out with the history of various exploits, thus explaining why the resultant MDE rules are important, then goes on to explain these settings in detail and context. This makes it easier to understand the why / how relationship for a successful implementation of Defender versus a work that explains what each rule does and how to configure it, but lacks context that allows the reader to understand how these rules compliment each other.Additionaly, the guidance for the actual implementation of MDE is second to none in detail, with sage advice to enable the deployment of accurate and effective rulesets, thus minimizing any unforseen issues that could have substantial business impact.From mitigating performance issues, to implementing MDE across all platforms, this book has it all and I am happy to 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.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
