The Devices page in multitenant management enables you to quickly manage tenants and devices.

Tenant device list

The Tenants page in multitenant management lists each tenant you have access to. Each tenant page includes details such as the number of devices and device types, the number of high value and high exposure devices, and the number of devices available to onboard:

At the top of the page, you can view the number of tenants and the number of devices onboarded or discovered, across all tenants. You can also see the aggregate number of devices identified as:

  • High risk
  • High exposure
  • Internet facing
  • Can be onboarded
  • Newly discovered
  • High value

Select a tenant name to navigate to the device inventory for that tenant in the Microsoft Defender XDR portal where all data and inventory-related actions are available.

Device inventory

The Device inventory page lists all the devices in each tenant that you have access to. The page is like the Defender for Endpoint device inventory with the addition of the Tenant name column. Moreover, the device inventory page doesn't have the network, IOT, and uncategorized devices tabs.

You can navigate to the device inventory page by selecting Assets > Devices in Microsoft Defender XDR's navigation menu.

The total number of devices, critical assets, high risk devices, and internet-facing devices for all tenants are shown at the top of the page.

You can search a specific device with the search function. You can sort and filter the device list according to the following fields to customize your view:

  • Tenant name
  • Risk level
  • Criticality level
  • Mitigation status
  • Cloud platforms
  • Operating system (OS) platforms
  • Windows OS version
  • Sensor health state
  • Antivirus status
  • Tags
  • First seen
  • Internet facing
  • Group
  • Exclusion state
  • Managed by

To manage a device, select a specific device from the list. Device management tasks like managing tags, device exclusion, and reporting inaccuracy becomes available at the top of the device list.
