Ensure that Endpoint Protection for all Virtual Machines is installed
Why This Matters
Unprotected virtual machines are a primary target for malware, ransomware, and other malicious software that can compromise sensitive data and disrupt operations. Without endpoint protection, you lack real time detection and alerting for known malicious or unwanted software attempting to install or run on your Azure systems. Installing endpoint protection is essential for maintaining a secure baseline and meeting compliance requirements.
What Aether365 Checks
Aether365 verifies that an endpoint protection solution (such as Microsoft Antimalware or a third party tool) is installed and active on all Azure Virtual Machines. This check appears in the Aether365 dashboard under the Azure Virtual Machines category.
