How to monitor Endpoint Protection status

  • מאמר

Applies to: Configuration Manager (current branch)

You can monitor Endpoint Protection in your Microsoft Configuration Manager hierarchy by using the Endpoint Protection Status node under Security in the Monitoring workspace, the Endpoint Protection node in the Assets and Compliance workspace, and by using reports.

How to Monitor Endpoint Protection by Using the Endpoint Protection Status Node

  1. In the Configuration Manager console, click Monitoring.

  2. In the Monitoring workspace, expand Security and then click Endpoint Protection Status.

  3. In the Collection list, select the collection for which you want to view status information.

    Important

    Collections are available for selection in the following cases:

    • When you select View this collection in the Endpoint Protection dashboard on the Alerts tab of the <collection name>Properties dialog box.
      • When you deploy an Endpoint Protection antimalware policy to the collection.
      • When you enable and deploy Endpoint Protection client settings to the collection.

  4. Review the information that is displayed in the Security State and Operational State sections. You can click any status link to create a temporary collection in the Devices node in the Assets and Compliance workspace. The temporary collection contains the computers with the selected status.

    Important

    Information that is displayed in the Endpoint Protection Status node is based on the last data that was summarized from the Configuration Manager database and might not be current. If you want to retrieve the latest data, on the Home tab, click Run Summarization, or click Schedule Summarization to adjust the summarization interval.

How to Monitor Endpoint Protection in the Assets and Compliance Workspace

  1. In the Configuration Manager console, click Assets and Compliance.

  2. In the Assets and Compliance workspace, perform one of the following actions:

    • Click Devices. In the Devices list, select a computer, and then click the Malware Detail tab.

    • Click Device Collections. In the Device Collections list, select the collection that contains the computer you want to monitor and then, on the Home tab, in the Collection group, click Show Members.

  3. In the <collection name> list, select a computer, and then click the Malware Detail tab.

How to Monitor Endpoint Protection by Using Reports

Use the following reports to help you view information about Endpoint Protection in your hierarchy. You can also use these reports to help troubleshoot any Endpoint Protection problems. For more information about how to configure reporting in Configuration Manager, see Introduction to reporting and Log files. The Endpoint Protection reports are in the Endpoint Protection folder.

Malware Alert Levels

Use the following table to identify the different Endpoint Protection alert levels that might be displayed in reports, or in the Configuration Manager console.

Alert level Description

Note: For a list of Configuration Manager and Endpoint Protection log files, see the "Endpoint Protection" section in the Log files topic.
