## Battery Consumption issues on iOS when Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is installed
The battery usage by an app is computed by Apple based on a multitude of factors including CPU and Network usage. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint uses a local/loop-back VPN in the background to check web traffic for any malicious websites or connections. Network packets from any app go through this check and that causes the battery usage of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint to be computed inaccurately. This gives a false impression to the user. The actual battery consumption of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is lesser than what is shown on the Battery Settings page on the device. This is based on conducted tests done on the Microsoft Defender for Endpoint app to understand battery consumption.
Also the VPN used is a local VPN and unlike traditional VPNs, network traffic is not sent outside the device.
