+|---------------------------------------|-------------|
+| Endpoint count                        |             |

+| Security information and event (SIEM) |             |
+
+
+## Role-based access control
+
+Microsoft recommends using the concept of least privileges. Microsoft Defender
+ATP leverages built-in roles within Azure Active Directory. Microsoft recommend
+[review the different roles that are
+available](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/active-directory-assign-admin-roles-azure-portal)
+and choose the right one to solve your needs for each persona for this
+application. Some roles may need to be applied temporarily and removed after the
+deployment has been completed.
+
+| Personas                     | Roles | Azure AD Role (if required) | Assign to |
+|------------------------------|-------|-----------------------------|-----------|
+| Security Administrator       |       |                             |           |
+| Security Analyst             |       |                             |           |
+| Endpoint Administrator       |       |                             |           |
+| Infrastructure Administrator |       |                             |           |
+| Business Owner/Stakeholder   |       |                             |           |
+
+Microsoft recommends using [Privileged Identity
+Management](https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/active-directory-privileged-identity-management-configure)
+to manage your roles to provide additional auditing, control, and access review
+for users with directory permissions.
+
+Microsoft Defender ATP supports two ways to manage permissions:
+
+-   **Basic permissions management**: Set permissions to either full access or
+    read-only. In the case of basic permissions management users with Global
+    Administrator or Security Administrator role in Azure Active Directory have
+    full access while the Security reader role has read-only access.
+
+-   **Role-based access control (RBAC)**: Set granular permissions by defining
+    roles, assigning Azure AD user groups to the roles, and granting the user
+    groups access to machine groups. For more information. see [Manage portal access using role-based access control](rbac.md).
+
+Microsoft recommends leveraging RBAC to ensure that only users that have a
+business justification can access Microsoft Defender ATP.
+
+You can find details on permission guidelines
+[here](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/microsoft-defender-atp/user-roles#create-roles-and-assign-the-role-to-an-azure-active-directory-group).
+
+The following example table serves to identify the Cyber Defense Operations
+Center structure in your environment that will help you determine the RBAC
+structure required for your environment.
+
+| Tier   | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                 | Permission Required |
+|--------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------|
+| Tier 1 | **Local security operations team / IT team**<br>This team usually triages and investigates alerts contained within their geolocation and escalates to Tier 2 in cases where an active remediation is required.                                              |                     |
+| Tier 2 | **Regional security operations team**<br>This team can see all the machines for their region and perform remediation actions.                                                                                                                        |        View data               |
+| Tier 3 | **Global security operations team**<br>This team consists of security experts and are authorized to see and perform all actions from the portal. | View data <br>  Alerts investigation Active remediation actions <br> Alerts investigation Active remediation actions <br> Manage portal system settings <br> Manage security settings |
+
+
+
+## Adoption Order
+In many cases organizations will have existing endpoint security products in
+place. The bare minimum every organization should have is an antivirus solution. But in some cases an organization might also already implanted an EDR solution.
+Historically, replacing any security solution was time intensive and difficult
+to achieve due to the tight hooks into the application layer and infrastructure
+dependencies. However, because Microsoft Defender ATP is built into the
+operating system, replacing third-party solutions is easy to achieve.
+
+Choose which component of Microsoft Defender ATP to be used and remove the ones
+that do not apply. The table below indicates the Microsoft recommendation on the
+order on how the endpoint security suite should be enabled.
+
+| Component                               | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              | Adoption Order Rank |

+# Microsoft Defender ATP production deployment
+
+**Applies to:**
+- [Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (Microsoft Defender ATP)](https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?linkid=2069559)
+
+Proper planning is the foundation of a successful deployment. In this deployment scenario, you'll be guided through the steps on:
+- Tenant configuration
+- Network configuration
+- Onboarding using System Center Configuration Manager
+- Endpoint detection and response
+- Next generation protection
+- Attack surface reduction
+
+>[!NOTE]
+>For the purpose of guiding you through a typical deployment, this scenario will only cover the use of System Center Configuration Manager. Microsoft Defnder ATP supports the use of other onboarding tools but will not cover those scenarios in the deployment guide. For more information, see [Onboard machines to Microsoft Defender ATP](onboard-configure.md).
+
+## Tenant Configuration
+
+When accessing [Microsoft Defender Security Center](https://securitycenter.windows.com/) for the first time there will be a setup wizard that will guide you through some initial steps. At the end of the setup wizard there will be a dedicated cloud instance of Microsoft Defender ATP created. The easiest method is to perform these steps from a Windows 10 client machine.
+
+1. From a web browser, navigate to <https://securitycenter.windows.com>.
+
+    ![Image of Set up your permissions for Microsoft Defender ATP](images/atp-setup-permissions-wdatp-portal.png)

+
+     ![Image of final preference set up](images/setup-preferences2.png)
+
+6. Select **Continue**.
+
+
+## Network configuration
+If the organization does not require the endpoints to use a Proxy to access the
+Internet, skip this section.
+
+The Microsoft Defender ATP sensor requires Microsoft Windows HTTP (WinHTTP) to
+report sensor data and communicate with the Microsoft Defender ATP service. The
+embedded Microsoft Defender ATP sensor runs in the system context using the
+LocalSystem account. The sensor uses Microsoft Windows HTTP Services (WinHTTP)
+to enable communication with the Microsoft Defender ATP cloud service. The
+WinHTTP configuration setting is independent of the Windows Internet (WinINet)
+internet browsing proxy settings and can only discover a proxy server by using
+the following discovery methods:
+
+**Auto-discovery methods:**
+
+-   Transparent proxy
+
+-   Web Proxy Auto-discovery Protocol (WPAD)
+
+If a Transparent proxy or WPAD has been implemented in the network topology,
+there is no need for special configuration settings. For more information on
+Microsoft Defender ATP URL exclusions in the proxy, see the
+Appendix section in this document for the URLs Whitelisting or on
+[Microsoft
+Docs](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/security/threat-protection/windows-defender-atp/configure-proxy-internet-windows-defender-advanced-threat-protection#enable-access-to-windows-defender-atp-service-urls-in-the-proxy-server).
+
+**Manual static proxy configuration:**
+
+-   Registry based configuration
+
+-   WinHTTP configured using netsh command <br> Suitable only for desktops in a
+    stable topology (for example: a desktop in a corporate network behind the
+    same proxy)
+
+### Configure the proxy server manually using a registry-based static proxy
+
+Configure a registry-based static proxy to allow only Microsoft Defender ATP
+sensor to report diagnostic data and communicate with Microsoft Defender ATP
+services if a computer is not permitted to connect to the Internet. The static
+proxy is configurable through Group Policy (GP). The group policy can be found
+under:
+
+-   Administrative Templates \> Windows Components \> Data Collection and
+    Preview Builds \> Configure Authenticated Proxy usage for the Connected User
+    Experience and Telemetry Service
+
+    -   Set it to **Enabled** and select<63>**Disable Authenticated Proxy usage**
+
+1. Open the Group Policy Management Console.
+2. Create a policy or edit an existing policy based off the organizational practices.
+3. Edit the Group Policy and navigate to **Administrative Templates \> Windows Components \> Data Collection and Preview Builds \> Configure Authenticated Proxy usage for the Connected User Experience and Telemetry Service**. 
+    ![Image of Group Policy setting](images/atp-gpo-proxy1.png)
+
+4. Select **Enabled**.
+5. Select **Disable Authenticated Proxy usage**.
+   
+6. Navigate to **Administrative Templates \> Windows Components \> Data Collection and Preview Builds \> Configure connected user experiences and telemetry**.
+    ![Image of Group Policy setting](images/atp-gpo-proxy2.png)
+7. Select **Enabled**.
+8. Enter the **Proxy Server Name**.
+
+The policy sets two registry values `TelemetryProxyServer` as REG_SZ and `DisableEnterpriseAuthProxy` as REG_DWORD under the registry key `HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection`.
+
+The registry value `TelemetryProxyServer` takes the following string format:
+
+```text
+<server name or ip>:<port>
+```
+
+For example: 10.0.0.6:8080
+
+The registry value `DisableEnterpriseAuthProxy` should be set to 1.
+
+###  Configure the proxy server manually using netsh command
+
+Use netsh to configure a system-wide static proxy.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> - This will affect all applications including Windows services which use WinHTTP with default proxy.</br>
+> - Laptops that are changing topology (for example: from office to home) will malfunction with netsh. Use the registry-based static proxy configuration.
+
+1. Open an elevated command-line:
+
+    a. Go to **Start** and type **cmd**.
+
+    b. Right-click **Command prompt** and select **Run as administrator**.
+
+2. Enter the following command and press **Enter**:
+
+   ```PowerShell
+   netsh winhttp set proxy <proxy>:<port>
+   ```
+
+   For example: netsh winhttp set proxy 10.0.0.6:8080
+
+
+###  Proxy Configuration for down-level machines
+
+Down-Level machines include Windows 7 SP1 and Windows 8.1 workstations as well
+as Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Sever 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, and
+versions of Windows Server 2016 prior to Windows Server CB 1803. These operating
+systems will have the proxy configured as part of the Microsoft Management Agent
+to handle communication from the endpoint to Azure. Refer to the
+Microsoft Management Agent Fast Deployment Guide for information on how a proxy
+is configured on these machines.
+
+### Proxy Service URLs
+URLs that include v20 in them are only needed if you have Windows 10, version
+1803 or later machines. For example, ```us-v20.events.data.microsoft.com``` is only
+needed if the machine is on Windows 10, version 1803 or later.
+
+ Service location | Microsoft.com DNS record
+-|-
+Common URLs for all locations | ```crl.microsoft.com```<br> ```ctldl.windowsupdate.com``` <br>```events.data.microsoft.com```<br>```notify.windows.com```<br> ```settings-win.data.microsoft.com```
