Meet Microsoft Defender for Business
Small and mid-sized businesses face the same threat landscape as large corporations—often with fewer in-house resources. A single breach can halt operations, erode customer trust, and trigger costly fines.
Microsoft Defender for Business (often shortened to MS Defender for Business or simply Defender for Business) is Microsoft’s AI‑powered endpoint security solution built for organizations with up to 300 users. It unifies next-generation protection, Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), threat & vulnerability management, and automated investigation and remediation in one easy‑to‑manage platform — across Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS devices.
By combining automated remediation, behavioral AI, and a single pane of glass for security operations, Microsoft Defender Business empowers lean IT teams to neutralize ransomware, malware, and zero-day attacks before they disrupt your business.
With AIdriven threat protection and automated security responses, you can focus on growth—while Defender for Business handles the threats.
