Modern attacks rarely start and end on the same machine. They begin with compromised credentials and quickly spread across endpoints, escalating privileges and moving laterally before security teams can react. To stop them, identity and endpoint protection must work together.
This solution brief explains how Silverfort integrates with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (MDE) to synchronize identity risk directly into your endpoint workflows. Silverfort continuously monitors authentication activity across hybrid environments and assigns dynamic risk scores to users and devices. Those risk levels are automatically synchronized to MDE using machine tags, enabling security teams to filter, prioritize, and trigger automated Defender responses based on real-time identity risk.
As a result, endpoint analysts gain full identity context during investigations, can immediately identify devices linked to high-risk users, and apply containment actions faster. By aligning Silverfort’s Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) with Defender’s endpoint protection capabilities, organizations detect identity-driven threats earlier and contain them before they escalate.
In this solution brief, you’ll learn how to:
- Synchronize identity risk with MDE to enhance prioritization and automated workflows.
- Prevent lateral movement by flagging and containing risky users and associated devices.
- Accelerate investigations with enriched identity context embedded directly into endpoint analysis.
