An integrated threat protection solution designed to detect, investigate, and respond to cyber threats across Microsoft 365 services.
Hello Mr X,
I’m Segunfunmi, an Independent Advisor and Microsoft user like you. Thanks for posting the query here in this forum.
You are trying to enable EDR in block mode in Microsoft 365 Defender. The instructions you have mentioned are correct. To help EDR in block mode, go to the Microsoft 365 Defender portal (4) and sign in. Then, choose Settings > Endpoints > General > Advanced features. Scroll down, and then turn on Enable EDR in block mode.
If you can still not find the option to enable EDR in block mode, it could be due to several reasons. It is possible that your account does not have the necessary permissions to access this feature. You may want to check with your administrator to ensure you have the appropriate permissions.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
Kind regards, Segunfunmi.
