Introduction
There are differences between Windows Defender and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE)
Windows Defender is the protection component of MDE and is built into Windows. It is available in Windows 10 and Windows 11, and in some versions of Windows Server. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is a unified platform for preventative protection, post-breach detection, automated investigation, and response. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint's cloud-based portal is Microsoft Defender Security Center. Access to the cloud-based portal is not needed in order to manage client settings.
In Configuration Manager you can for example Configure custom client settings for Endpoint Protection, create and deploy antimalware policies or create and deploy Windows Firewall policies.
