 The Microsoft Defender ATP evaluation lab is designed to eliminate the complexities of machine and environment configuration so that you can
  focus on evaluating the capabilities of the platform, running simulations, and seeing the prevention, detection, and remediation features in action.
 
-When you get started with the lab, you'll be guided through a simple set-up process where your tenant will be provisioned with test machines. These test machines will come pre-configured to have the latest and greatest Windows 10 version with the right security components in place and Office 2019 Standard installed.
