Rapid response to detect and remediate security incidents among billions of events is essential for IT security because adversaries present a danger every minute they are in your environment. This capability will extend the newly announced Microsoft Defender Threat & Vulnerability Management (TVM), a new component of Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP, previously Windows Defender ATP) that uses a risk-based approach to the discovery, prioritization, and remediation of endpoint vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. Today, we are happy to introduce Microsoft Intune security tasks, a new one-click remediation capability in Microsoft 365 that bridges security stakeholders-security administrators, security operations, and IT administrators-by allowing them to collaborate and seamlessly remediate threats.

Effectively identifying, assessing, and remediating endpoint weaknesses is pivotal in running a healthy security program and reducing organizational risk.
