ORDR + Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Integration

Frequently asked questions
How does ORDR extend Microsoft Defender for Endpoint to IoT and OT devices?
ORDR's AI-powered asset discovery and classification automatically identifies unagented IoT and OT devices that traditional Defender agents cannot reach, integrating them into unified risk assessment and threat response workflows. This eliminates visibility gaps across managed and unmanaged endpoints in complex device ecosystems.
Can ORDR and Microsoft Defender automate threat response across all connected assets?
Yes. The integration enables automated threat response workflows that simultaneously address threats across all connected assets, from traditional endpoints to legacy IoT/OT devices. This unified approach accelerates incident response and reduces manual remediation time.
What security challenges does the ORDR + Microsoft Defender integration solve?
The integration addresses three critical challenges: eliminating visibility blind spots by discovering unknown devices, reducing risk through unified classification and assessment, and improving incident response by automating threat mitigation across heterogeneous device environments. Organizations gain comprehensive protection across their entire connected asset infrastructure.
