SenseNdr.exe is slowly eating the memory
Hello, For a few days now, we have some Windows Server 2019 physical machines where almot all the memory is commited to sensendr.exe. If you terminate sensendr.exe, the process comes back after...
We started seeing this on 12 machines beginning 10/8. They will last a few days before running out of memory. Adding more memory only delayed the issue.
Server 2022 with both the September 2024 and October 2024 patches.
The only thing special about these machines is that they are on an isolated network using a proxy for Defender only. Anyone else in that scenario?
