 Each onboarded machine adds an additional endpoint detection and response (EDR) sensor and increases visibility over breach activity in your network. Onboarding also ensures that a machine can be checked for vulnerable components as well security configuration issues and can receive critical remediation actions during attacks.

 ## Discover and track unprotected machines
 
 The **Onboarding** card provides a high-level overview of your onboarding rate by comparing the number of Windows 10 machines that have actually onboarded to Microsoft Defender ATP against the total number of Intune-managed Windows 10 machines.

 ## Compare the Microsoft Defender ATP and the Windows Intune security baselines
 The Windows Intune security baseline provides a comprehensive set of recommended settings needed to securely configure machines running Windows, including browser settings, PowerShell settings, as well as settings for some security features like Windows Defender Antivirus. In contrast, the Microsoft Defender ATP baseline provides settings that optimize all the security controls in the Microsoft Defender ATP stack, including settings for endpoint detection and response (EDR) as well as settings also found in the Windows Intune security baseline.
