Microsoft Defender for Endpoint provides comprehensive endpoint security by leveraging advanced detection, investigation, and response capabilities.
One of its powerful features is the ability to summarize antivirus detections by endpoint using advanced hunting queries in Kusto Query Language (KQL).
This functionality enables security analysts to gain insights into threats detected across devices, aiding in proactive threat management.
The query focuses on summarizing antivirus detection events by endpoint (device).
It filters events where the action type is “AntivirusDetection” and extracts relevant details such as the threat name, detected object (file or folder), and its origin.
Using the bag_pack()
function, it compiles these properties into a dynamic object, making the data more structured and readable. The query then aggregates this information by device name, providing:
Threats
).ThreatsCount
).This summarized view is particularly useful for:
bag_pack()
function creates a JSON-like structure, enabling flexible data representation.summarize
operator consolidates data, making it easier to identify patterns and prioritize responses.bag_pack()
function to tailor the query to specific needs, such as adding initiating process details or file hashes.Microsoft Defender for Endpoint combines signature-based and behavior-based detection methods with real-time monitoring and automated responses.
It integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft security tools, providing:
By leveraging such queries, organizations can enhance their security posture, streamline investigations, and mitigate risks effectively.
This approach exemplifies how Defender for Endpoint empowers security teams with actionable insights into endpoint threats.
