Can we onboard servers on MDE using Intune policies?
Can we configure Antivirus, SmartScreen, Network Protection, Tamper Protection, Attack Surface Reduction, Controlled Folder Access, and other security configs for servers via Intune Policies?
The reason why i asked this is because Intune policy description says that it can be applied to windows 10, windows 11, and windows servers but i was not able to find any documentation which indicates that Intune supports server onboarding on MDE.
I'm just another Intune user, so take this with a grain of salt, but while you can manage them in the Intune portal with CM's help https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/core-infrastructure-and-security/how-to-manage-microsoft-defender-on-windows-server-via-intune/ba-p/3713195, as I understand it you would need to install the onboarding package using either a local script, GPO, CM, VDI scripts, or Defender for Cloud https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/defender-endpoint/configure-server-endpoints
