Microsoft Endpoint Administrator — Question 6

You have a Microsoft 365 E5 subscription that contains 500 macOS devices enrolled in Microsoft Intune.
You need to ensure that you can apply Microsoft Defender for Endpoint antivirus policies to the macOS devices. The solution must minimize administrative effort.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Onboard the macOS devices to the Microsoft Purview compliance portal.
• B. From the Microsoft Intune admin center, create a security baseline.
• C. Install Defender for Endpoint on the macOS devices.
• D. From the Microsoft Intune admin center, create a configuration profile.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct option is D because creating a configuration profile in Microsoft Intune allows for the efficient deployment of antivirus policies to multiple devices. Options A and B do not directly apply antivirus policies, while option C involves manual installation, which increases administrative effort.
