20-
Microsoft Defender for IoT can now integrate with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. This integration combines Microsoft Defender for Endpoint’s device discovery capabilities, with the agentless monitoring capabilities to secure enterprise IoT devices connected to an IT network (for example, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), printers, and smart TVs). The integration allows organizations to take advantage of a single integrated solution that secures all of their IoT, and OT infrastructure.

You can now integrate Defender for IoT with Defender for Endpoint. When you do so, you're combining Defender for Endpoint device-discovery and agentless monitoring capabilities to help secure enterprise IoT devices that are connected to an IT network. Two examples of such devices are Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) printers and smart TVs. The result of this integration is a single, integrated solution that helps secure your entire IoT and OT infrastructure.
