Important

If you manage endpoint protection for Windows 10 or later computers, then you must configure Configuration Manager to update and distribute malware definitions for Windows Defender. Windows Defender is included in Windows 10 and later but custom client settings for Endpoint Protection (Step 5 below) are still required.

Steps Details
Step 1: Create an Endpoint Protection point site system role The Endpoint Protection point site system role must be installed before you can use Endpoint Protection. It must be installed on one site system server only, and it must be installed at the top of the hierarchy on a central administration site or a stand-alone primary site.
Step 2: Configure alerts for Endpoint Protection Alerts inform the administrator when specific events have occurred, such as a malware infection. Alerts are displayed in the Alerts node of the Monitoring workspace, or optionally can be emailed to specified users.
Step 3: Configure definition update sources for Endpoint Protection clients Endpoint Protection can be configured to use various sources to download definition updates.
Step 4: Configure the default antimalware policy and create custom antimalware policies The default antimalware policy is applied when the Endpoint Protection client is installed. Any custom policies you have deployed are applied by default, within 60 minutes of deploying the client. Ensure that you have configured antimalware policies before you deploy the Endpoint Protection client.
Step 5: Configure custom client settings for Endpoint Protection Use custom client settings to configure Endpoint Protection settings for collections of computers in your hierarchy.

Note: Do not configure the default Endpoint Protection client settings unless you are sure that you want these settings applied to all computers in your hierarchy.
