AI Threat Protection with Microsoft Defender
When an AI agent starts behaving unexpectedly, your team needs to know exactly which identities and connections are involved so access can be restricted quickly. This guide walks through how Microsoft Defender brings signals from identities, endpoints, applications, and data together, so you can respond to compromised or misbehaving agents with confidence rather than guesswork.
