Microsoft Defender Antivirus + Blackpoint Overview:

0124/7 monitoring and response


Blackpoint’s SOC actively monitors Microsoft Defender Antivirus alerts. If Defender doesn’t sufficiently contain a threat, Blackpoint analysts immediately neutralize threats by isolating endpoints and terminating processes for unmatched Managed EDR protection.

02Reduces your costs


Pairing free Microsoft Defender Antivirus with Blackpoint’s 24/7 MDR service and EDR agent delivers a highly cost-effective solution without compromising protection. Our around-the-clock SOC further reduces costs by handling detection, triage, and response—so your team can stay focused on growing the business.

03Global agent and policy management


CompassOne allows you to centralize and standardize your Microsoft Defender Antivirus agent management in a single platform. Supporting multi-tenant management and device-specific overrides, you can now easily and efficiently manage free Microsoft Defender Antivirus.

04Eliminates false positives


Blackpoint’s CompassOne platform enables our SOC to filter out the noise from Microsoft Defender Antivirus alerts, focusing only on real threats. You’ll only receive reports on verified security events.

05Auto-orchestrates collection of security metadata


When a Microsoft Defender Antivirus alert triggers, CompassOne automatically pulls device metadata via the Blackpoint agent – no external SOAR or automation needed. Blackpoint’s native AI models triage risk and equip security analysts with instant context to quickly validate threats.

06Asset discovery and visibility


CompassOne ingests Microsoft Defender Antivirus data to enrich platform context and unify visibility. See Defender-detected assets alongside others, enhancing your attack surface awareness.

07Enhanced by the Blackpoint EDR agent


Microsoft Defender Antivirus delivers basic Anti-Virus (AV) protection. Pairing it with the Blackpoint EDR agent adds multiple additional layers of advanced threat detection (lateral spread, privilege account monitoring, abuse of legitimate IT tools, etc.)—alerting on threats Microsoft Defender Antivirus does not detect.

08Simple setup


Install the Blackpoint agent on devices running Microsoft Defender Antivirus, enable the integration in the CompassOne web interface, and sit back. It’s that easy.
