That section didn't indicate if there were any Plan 1 or Plan 2 requirement. Licensing was described as requiring "a standalone Microsoft Defender for Endpoint license, as part of Microsoft 365 A5/E5, or Microsoft 365 Security," per this "Licensing Requirements" document section. The preview also is supported for multiple Linux distros, which are shown in this "System Requirements" list. The preview of Network Protection and Web Protection capabilities in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint just works with macOS devices using version 11 ("Big Sur") or later operating system versions. Users also can be blocked from accessing Web sites based on blocking categories that get set up by organizations. Organizations also can use Web Protection capabilities to set up Allow, Block and Warn policies. Web Protection capabilities are used for alerts and investigations. It has three elements, namely " Web threat protection, Web content filtering and Custom indicators," according to Microsoft's document. The Web Protection capability is designed to secure devices against Web-based threats and address unwanted content. "Currently, the integration for macOS and Linux only supports endpoint enforcement capabilities," the announcement noted, without elaboration, regarding Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps integration. However, that integration is limited for Linux and macOS devices at present. The Network Protection capabilities for Windows devices works "natively" with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, which is Microsoft's solution for protecting software-as-a-service apps. To get that kind of information, Network Protection needs to be used with the "Endpoint detection and response capabilities in Defender for Endpoint," Microsoft's document explained. It's also possible to use Network Protection to show indicators of compromise, which might be used by security analysts hunting for advanced attacks. Machine learning is used with Network Protection as well to detect the use of software or services for command-and-control attack activities. Organizations get protection against malicious URLs across various applications, and not just for browsers, with Network Protection.
