Endpoint detection and response for Endpoint provide advanced attack detections that are near real-time and actionable. Security analysts can prioritize alerts effectively, gain visibility into the full scope of a breach, and take response actions to remediate threats.

Run an EDR detection test to verify that the device is properly onboarded and reporting to the service. Perform the following steps on the newly onboarded device:

Windows

  1. Open a Command Prompt window

  2. At the prompt, copy and run the following command. The Command Prompt window closes automatically.

    powershell.exe -NoExit -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -WindowStyle Hidden $ErrorActionPreference= 'silentlycontinue';(New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile('http://127.0.0.1/1.exe', 'C:\\test-WDATP-test\\invoice.exe');Start-Process 'C:\\test-WDATP-test\\invoice.exe'
    
  3. If successful, the detection test is marked as completed and a new alert appears within a few minutes.

Linux

  1. Download script file to an onboarded Linux server
curl -o ~/Downloads/MDE-Linux-EDR-DIY.zip -L https://aka.ms/MDE-Linux-EDR-DIY
  1. Extract the zip
unzip ~/Downloads/MDE-Linux-EDR-DIY.zip
  1. And run the following command to give the script executable permission:
chmod +x ./mde_linux_edr_diy.sh
  1. Run the following command to execute the script:
 ./mde_linux_edr_diy.sh
  1. After a few minutes, a detection should be raised in Microsoft Defender XDR. Look at the alert details, machine timeline, and perform your typical investigation steps.
